But primaries are suppose to be run in such a manner that the candidate who recognizes he cannot get that number drops out, he doesn't stay in just to block the front runner and hope that it ends up back at the convention!
Convention battles are for those primaries when two candidates are truly deadlocked, not for game playing to stop the frontrunner from getting the majority and then have the convention win it.
Cruz supporters can cry all they want about the 'rules' but we Trump supporters know the spirit behind the rules and we are not going to accept that kind of evil behavior.
Says who? There's absolutely no rule to that effect, and when Trump recently demanded that the RNC "shouldn't allow" Kasich to stay in the race, he must have been smoking crack because they don't have the power to stop that.
Everyone with half a brain knew that this primary field was overly crowded with 17 candidates. That alone should have let everyone know that this primary season might look a lot different than most.
If Trump was a lock to get the 1237, the other candidates would have dropped out. But since he isn't, his competition is staying in there.
If anyone didn't like those rules, they shouldn't have gotten into the game in the first place.
