Ok...........we are still in the first innings. Why is everyone acting like the election is over.

Cruz got 8 delegates. Trump has 7 delegates and Rubio either has 6 or 7 delegates.........nobody is saying that any of them are going to be President. All three have to convince voters to vote for them. It is a long road to go. The only way the road would have stopped last night is if Trump won......he came in a strong 2nd and the race will go on. Perhaps that is best. I think all this overreaction to 1 state is a bit much.

You have a good point. My irritation though is the push by the media (and GOPe) to once again pick out candidate — Rubio. And that is happening today with the big push for Rubio on almost all media — including the supposedly conservative Fox News. I think the reaction you are commenting on is a result of that — the same-o same-o activity by the media and GOPe.

It's the media who is saying it, and until NH it will be all Rubio all the time from all news sources. I went to bed thinking Cruz had a narrow victory over Trump, and all I've heard since I got up this morning is Rubio.
