This is impossible. Cruz supporters been telling us for weeks that the GOPe had decided they prefer Trump to Cruz. (Hope not very many were foolish enough to believe it.)

And don't forget Rush and Levin: The GOP hate Trump but they fear Cruz. What exactly will Cruz owe them if they save his campaign and he gets the most delegates? I think most likely they will use him to stop Trump and throw Cruz under the bus at the convention. And the GOP goes marching on.

I can’t quite visualize how this throwing someone under the bus would work.

The conventions starts with say, 1100 Trump delegates and 800 Cruz delegates. That’s 1900 of less than 2500 delegates. Where does the Establishment get 1237 votes to change the rules to screw Trump and Cruz?

They would need 665 Trump or Cruz delegates in addition to the 572 ‘miscellaneous’ delegates.

35% of Trump and Cruz delegates will be Establishment plants while the campaigns are aware and watching? Really?
