Yes...rules and a bureaucratic and cryptic (to the layman citizen voter) are a surefire substitute for something like a pesky citizen vote. Rules and rules after all.
Go back to eating your tapioca Sowell.
It’s becoming apparent that “our only hope Alpha male” Trump is something of a snowflake himself
That is as nice a presentation on the dispute as I’ve seen.
Go back to eating your tapioca Sowell.
Mr. Sowell is sharp as a tack and right. I guess he has been added to the list getting death threats from Trump supporters.
Yet it plays, and you know why it plays? Because people expect this crap from the GOPe. They expect this from pols, and increasingly they expect it from St. Ted. So there is an element of truth there that people are responding to.
Deceptive Donald- whining when his incompetence in running a campaign is exposed. Hypocritical Donald who hires Manafort to wrangle him some delegates.
It sure looks that way, doesn’t it?
No he is not. He has been speaking the second most evil hold your nose crap for near a couple years now. 18 months ago he was arguing for Jeb or the like and Cruz was the last thing on his addled mind
We peons are obliged to turn over important stuff like ‘voting for delegates’ to those within the GOP establishment who have been initiated into the mystery cult.
Absolutely. Perhaps if he knew as much about the primary process from state as he does about bankruptcy laws, he’d be better off right now. Ya see, this is what scares me the most about a guy like trump...like BHO, “RULES” are so constrictive, like that pesky irritant of a constitution! It gets in my way, it challenges me...so I will bypass it; all while the impotent legislature does NOTHING! I would vote for him over Hillary...but is scares the shit out of me.
For the most important thing in the United States is the Presidency. Why do anyone think that each State should make silly rules with this important thing. Colorado decided that just a few should have the right to decide who might be President. So then I can assume that the President of the US can be Micky Mouse or how about Donald Duck. This is serious and it should be that the voters should be the foremost to chose the candidate. Not some bunch of elite jackasses.
You won't have and don't want to vote for Hillary. Trump will go third party and the conservative candidate, Cruz, will win.
No it wasn't but that is how it was used Tom. You are probably even smarter than super Genius Cruz, so why do you state that question?
It can be understood from the perspective of a political campaign -- Cruz has put in a good ground game in precisely the places where it would do the most good, and one of the criteria is, separated by some time. After Iowa, I'd estimate that at least 50 percent of the Cruz topics on FR were about how he'd won Iowa, have you heard? Cruz won Iowa. Same thing happened with Wisconsin. OTOH, there was barely any talk about Texas -- he should have done better in his home state, though he did win -- or any other losses. Barring some spectacular upset in a large state (NY and CA are the largest ones left), he's finished and he knows he's finished. If Trump or Kasich (or some maverick write in candidate) win just 117 more delegates, Cruz can't reach 1237. Trump is expected to win ALL of NY state's delegates, meaning the number is down to the low 20s, and Trump is expected to do triple that, at least, in California. He has leads in PA, MD, CT...
Cruz didn't have to hire anyone he has the entire Oligarchy(both parties) trying to help him knock off Trump.
