The only candidates that can stop Trump from the nomination now is Cruz and Rubio.

Cruz did not win a single county or delegate in SC tonight. His performance was an utter disaster. His much ballyhooed "ground game" got no traction whatsoever. This was a state heavy with the "evangelicals" that was to have been Cruz's to lose. Cruz underperformed badly. Huge disappointment.

Rubio may have won a county or two but will likely have zero delegates to show for it.

Trump will likely landslide Nevada Tuesday night and add another 30 delegates to his total.

Then we have Super Tuesday on March 1. Other than Texas, Trump should cruise. He could easily pick up 600 delegates that night - even if he doesn't win Texas.

Barring disaster, Trump will be our nominee and our next president. I don't believe there is any example where somebody won NH and SC and did not also win the nomination.

Oh, that's not true. Didn't you see his speech tonight? He won by historic margins.

Cruz like Santorum last cycle had an Iowa only strategy. Both put all their eggs into the Iowa basket thinking a win there would provide big momentum for winning S.C. I just does not work that way. Cruz has also hurt himself by running a nasty untruthful negative campaign. He should fire his campaign manager.
