In the general we need to pull some of the states like NH, PA, OH, VA, NC, NV, and NM, I'll admit there are several others that are lost causes. Otherwise it is the same old situation that we have had since 2000.

I like Cruz, but don't think that he has that crossover appeal that Trump has to get these states in play. In spite what a lot of Cruz supporters are saying, Trump's platform is fairly conservative. It is true that Cruz is more conservative, but in my mind, he is less electable.

In the most recent polls, Cruz polls ahead of Hillary and Bernie; Trump doesn’t.

Which, I guess, proves that Trump can win and Cruz can’t.

Frankly, pretty much any Republican who’s not a complete bozo should be able to defeat either the crook or the Communist.
