Just common sense.
IMHO, Cruz has no chance for the nomination unless one of the following happens:
1. He arrives at the convention with 1237 rock solid delegates who can’t be bribed or intimidated.
2. An alliance with Trump which would create a Trump-Cruz ticket. Only a combination of their delegates would create a tamper proof delegation.
Ryan denied wanting to be speaker, even as he was dictating terms for his speakership. The GOPe has deluded themselves into believing that Ryan is the most popular Republican since Reagan. Their fondest dream is of a Ryan led Crony Capitalist plunder of what is left of America.
