Good news from Trump. This keeps Cruz in the race for another couple weeks.
Oh my! You are so wrong. Trump will not win Texas. Cruz will.
You mean Cruz?
Previous post....sorry....as pleased with Cruz....
:)
Just corrected it....Thanks for noticing.
You are assuming that all of Kasich and Carson’s support would go to Ted??? It doesn’t work that way - some would go to Trump and some to Rubio as well. This isn’t the way politics works.
Less than 30% is a strike.
Between 30 and 40% is a base hitter.
Over 40% is a home run.
We will know for sure in a little over 48 hours.
I will try and remember this post on Tuesday. Florida is still a couple of weeks away.
What 10 States ?
So the best Cruz can do is talk about 1 State.
Me too. Second choices don't matter now.
1 for 12 on Super Tuesday is not winning.
Doubt it ... Cruz will not get 50% ... so he and Trump will split the delegates, Rubio gets squat from Texas ... and there is no other state that Cruz will win on Tuesday.
” I don’t think Texas is as pleased with trump as the party pretends.”
I assume you meant Cruz, not Trump.
Texas is proportional...this margin helps Cruz a bit, but NOT NEARLY ENOUGH.
Cruz might win Texas, but it is still a proportionate state, so Trump will also get some delegates. After this, however, Cruz is probably finished.
Texas has a lot of delegates and that is why it is important and worth winning.
Your friends and family are just telling you they are voting for Cruz, because they know you would be insufferable if you knew they actually voted for Trump.
I already voted fro Trump. I don’t want Texas to be an embarrassment to the nation like Iowa.
