Is Cruz already too late to stop Trump?

Hannity is a secret Cruz supporter but he has been more than fair with all the candidates and given them equal time on his radio and TV show. His relationship with Trump goes back years, so while Sean may not support Trump’s candidacy, they do get along on a personal level. At least he’s not full of the vitriol and hate being exhibited by Levin and especially Beck.

Savage has been great!

You mean some of you are still supporting Romney and McCain? Cause that’s who your boy is in bed with. Shame.

And Trump has been in more beds than a 5 dollar hooker.

Your reasoning is faulty. Kasich does nothing but ensure a brokered convention. He prevents useful votes. Almost 100,000 people in. Ohio choose to vote for Kasich who can’t win. If he were gone Cruz and Trump would both do better.

If the GOPe had gone as hard against The Won as they’re going against Trump, we would have had a Republican president for the last eight years.

One of his close aides has said that Cruz will pull an upset on Trump in AZ because of his ‘ground game,’ no doubt quietly aided by McCain. Not sure why he has been so relatively quiet about this election. Not like him at all.

[DuncanWaring]

Would that be “Lard McCain”?

[major-pelham]

It’s not interesting it’s delusion. Take out the NY and NJ delegates and give Cruz 100% of all the rest and he’s still 10 short. AND that’s out the window Tuesday in AZ. Pure delusion.

[Ooh-Ah]

What is the source for these ratings? Is there a link?

I LOVED the reply at conservative treehouse bankrupTED!!!!

Under my scenario, Ohio's votes go to Trump anyway under the "unity ticket."

Of course, it's just a theory. But why else would Kasich be campaigning in Utah, if not to attempt to keep Cruz under the WTA threshhold of 50%?

I still think Cruz will win Utah. Fealty to a church leader (Romney) will carry the day.

The question is whether he can be held to less than 50%.

Trump will win Arizona in a romp. If he can eat into Utah's delegation, that's a big win.

Cruz has stopped Cruz already.

[Candor7]

Yup, Cruz is too late to stop Trump. So is the GOPe.

They also know they are too late, which is why they are rolling out protesters.That just increased Trump voters.

Now the GOPe will try to do convention rule changes, among them the sycophant John Kasich, supported by Soros.

Do not rule out assassination, may Trump's security prevail. Desperate people do desperate things. Meanwhile Trump is becoming the hero of the People. He is unstoppable.

Rush is very strange this year,he never pushes for a candidate in the primaries until now. He was pushing Rubio,now Cruz,he seems to lack conviction anymore,and I have been listening since 1992. Rush needs controversy to keep people tuned in. I mostly tune him out anymore,it is sad he is not the same rush. I would like to send rush. A copy of the $$$_((;;:)(_&@$letter I got from the RNC,and let him deal with them. This letter was similar to what the Iowa voters got,saying they were delinquent etc.like this was from a collection agency. Can you believe they are so tone deaf that they think this commie tactic would get me to renew my RNC membership?

LOL!

[HarleyLady27]

NO, but he had his daughter Megan do it for him...

[TontoKowalski]

McCain is keeping his fat trap shut because the base in Arizona is furious with him. He's at 40-40 in a hypthetical general election matchup, and even to get there he has to get through a very credible primary battle.

Under no scenario can McCain take action to alienate a huge chunk of Republican voters, which he'd do if he came out against (or to be fair... for) Trump.

Like all politicians, his overriding loyalties are to his own self-preservation.

[HarleyLady27]

...and they are very heavily tied to the Clinton Crime Family and Soros...

[dragnet2]

That’s odd since El Rushbo seems to have no problems with Bush White House sleepovers.

[dragnet2]

No doubt.
