Without Kasich, Cruz would have been over 60%.
Your bitterness glows in the dark!
Yes, Wisconsin would likely be well out of reach for either Cruz or Trump in November.
What I found most interesting about that map was that Trump’s half was the rural half that will vote Republican in November, while Cruz won the urban/suburban half, which goes to the Democrats.
This seems to support Jim’s point that Cruz, although a conservative himself, is benefiting from (being used by) moderate (liberal) GOPe party operatives.
This is exactly why the fabled Cruz superior ground game will not translate into a Cruz win in any 2nd, 3rd or 4th ballots. These delegates are not Cruz loyalists, but rather GOPe loyalists who are taking advantage of Cruz and his naive supporters.
Cruz needs to drop out quickly before enabling the GOPe to plant any more of their delegates, who are Cruz-in-name-only.
