I read the other day, in the 2012 primaries, Santorum decided to drop out after he needed a very difficult 75% of the remaining delegates to win the nomination.

Well, Cruz needs something like 80%+ of the remaining delegates in order to win the nomination outright. An even more difficult task than Santorum. THE ONLY TRUE REASON for Ted Cruz to stay in at this point is to muddy up the convention FOR the GOP establishment. When are people going to wake up to see the snake and fraud that Ted Cruz turned out to be.

Thanks, I don’t believe they are. Always assumed conservatives were little smarter than the rest, I guess not, simple math combined with just a little history of recent elections tells us many on our side aren’t much brighter than that Bernie lot.
Cause it just doesn’t matter how much you like Cruz he can’t win FL and OH. 2+2=Hillary.

In the real world he will know he won't be able to reach the number before Trump hits that number.

In two weeks that will be a fact.

Senator Cruz authored the brief which the majority of the states stood behind.

He had a crucial roll on the Heller case. Had we lost it, our gun rights would have been altered forever.

It was a team effort for sure, but now Senator Cruz had a critical roll in the fight.

They don’t care. They want the Trump “defeat”. They want to gush on talk radio with El Rushbo. Then they want to go back to how everything is and bitch for the next 4-8 years about how our country is going down the tubes.

Republicans be like that.

With fraud like in Wisconsin where the machines would not accept Trump votes.

Something smells and needs to be investigated.

LOL. Cruz finds a camera faster than Al Sharpton to take “credit” or attack Trump. Chicago, Brussels, etc. Always the same. His law career is no different I see.

The purported Trump statement seemed phony to me, but who knows. If it is phony, FOX will have egg on its face, because they read it verbatim in prime time.

That’s the Demorat lingo you’ve got going there.....Cruz is in this to win the Primary and then the General for president. The Gop won’t be doing anything other than choosing between Cruz and Trump...they have 80% of the delegates already...what’s the Gope going to do, put soeone up there who hasn’t worked a day in this Primary and expect the delegates will go for their guy...LOLOL...they won’t risk it.

Well, it's true, it's a very difficult task for Cruz to get to the nomination outright. At least Santorum had the decency to realize that. The only reason for Cruz to be in this is to try to get this to a contested convention and help the GOP establishment.

Oh and on top of that so many unholy factions (dem party, GOPe, the Media, etc. ) is coming together to try to stop Trump. Many of you Cruz supporters have gone from fans to fanatics because you don't want to see these unholy alliances come together because they HELP your candidate. How in the world is that principled conservatism?

But continue to NUANCE Ted Cruz chances, that's what liberals do, trust me, I've had much experience dealing with liberals online and that's what they do.

I was hoping for a majority. It would have been Cruz’s third majority win.

Let me congratulate, on behalf of Donald Trump, the "Comeback Kid":

Jim Gilmore with 203 votes!

In the real world, using the real rules, one needs to win a majority of the delegates, whether it be in the primaries or not until the convention.

That is when the race is over.

And it's been that way for many years.

“Senator Cruz had a critical roll in the fight.”

He sure did. Was that before or after he took $250,000 to defend the Chinese company ??

Personally, of all the GOP candidates, I would rather have Jim Gilmore as President. But getting Gilmore elected is an entirely different matter.
