If a fellow Republican is able to dominate the news cycle and push Cruz out, what do you think they’d do for Hillary? It’s the elephant in the room that most who are voting for Cruz are of the same ilk of those who voted for Perot, it’s a protest vote. Because all know by now that Cruz is not going to get the nomination so they want to feel good, like they did the right thing.
Good luck with that.
Probably because the Cruz herders were there in front of them gently pushing them over to the Cruz table.
Wise words.
50 percent or over in a congressional district means all 3 delegates and over 50 percent statewide means all 47 ‘at-large’ delegates.
Over 20 but under 50 for Ted if he leads a district means he gets 2 and the next candidate gets 1 per district.
If Ted is under 50 percent statewide, he will split the 47 statewide delegates with all other candidates over 20 percent.
That earlier version of Ted was the one I supported. His sleazy lies and phony allegations have turned me off. That and TPA/Corker amendment.
Admittedly, sometimes I've been good about that and sometimes I've not.
As the race goes on, we've got to remember that we still have to join forces eventually. I'd like to not have many fences to mend.
I want to assure you that this is totally fabricated BS. Cruz is a liar and is hated in the Senate. We can’t get anything done with this foreign born liar. Go Trump.
>>Cruz is not a real threat, Rubio is. <<
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Rubio is not capable of getting the votes in Republican primaries, and he would not be the choice in a brokered convention, regardless of what they are telling him today.
He is on a kamikaze mission for his masters, whether he knows it or not.
Cruz is inching up the the polls, if he c an crack 50% on Tuesday night, ALL delegates go to him...
Trump’s motto: Make America Great Again
Rubio’s motto: Make America a Laughing Stock Again.
Just MHO.

Talking about Sessions being turned into a puppet.
Who’s puppet?
I’m surprised not a one of you has seen this? http://theconservativetreehouse.com/2016/02/26/tripwire-alert-the-rnc-gope-marco-rubio-chris-christie-and-donald-trump/
I wasn’t going to vote in Texas. But a few hours ago I decided to spend the time and gas and go vote for ...... TRUMP! Your vote is officially cancelled out!
Fox constantly says Trump underperformed. If Cruz doesn’t get 50% in his home state he lost as far as Fox is concerned. In fact, if he only gets 50% that means 50% voted against him. /s
I again have problems with the sampling in this poll.
“If fricking Carson and Kasich had had the sense to get the heck out, Cruz could have over 50%.”
“Good point. “
No, not really. Not that there are many Carson supporters anyway, but after what Cruz did to him in Iowa, do you really think they’d vote for Cruz?
Hint: No.
I was talking about in TX, and we are not as emotion-driven, vindictive voters as some others apparently are. I think plenty of Carson supporters would realize they ideologically line up with Cruz much more than Trump.
Respondents were selected for participation from available panel members to be representative of registered voters from each state in terms of age, race, and gender.
A propensity score (based upon a case-controllogistic regression including age, race, gender, education, born-again status, and party registration)...Respondents were selected from YouGovs and two other online panels. These are “opt-in” panels which are open for anyone to join...
There were six waves of the panel poll. In February... now get this!!... Nobody in Texas was actually contacted!! This is BS. All you have from 'YouGov' is a demographic panel. And folks are buying this crap.
