I know it was rhetorical, but I think he stopped campaigning to make it look like the race is over. If he wins all the contests tonight, it lends credence to the story that the race is over, he’s not even campaigning and he’s winning.
If by chance he had lost Virginia, people would say he was stupid for not campaigning, but it would explain his loss.
You’re right. Yet he’s in a helluva spot- if he tries to get US behind him- he’ll lose his natural constituency who brought him to the dance- moderate Dems and Indies...
Going to love watching him squirm.
