Ted Cruz dominates the delegate-selection process in Louisiana and Colorado. Trump then erupts in flustered indignation, sounding like Mom in the old joke: Mom: How was the game? Son: Great. I went 3 for 4 and stole second base. Mom: Well, you march yourself right back to school and put it back. You would think that, instead of jeering at Cruz for his hustle, Trump fans would boo their own candidate for fielders indifference. He just stands there, fuming and whining, watching as his opponent circles the bases.

Ted does great except where the voters have a say.
I agree with the author. Trump talks big, but under performs in many campaign processes.
Takes too much effort on his part.. He might have to spend some money to win!!!
If the frontrunner is underperforming, what can be called the runner up’s performance?
Do you have a macro for that meme?
It's weak and lame, like the morality and ethics of their candidate, and I'm voting for Donald Trump.
It would be ok with me if he was spending your's.
National CRuzReview....lol.
No thanks.
They seem to be over looking all of the YUGE projects Trump has OVER performed on, over the years.
cRuz has NEVER even covered a payroll, or signed the front of any check. He’s a career government employee flacky.
Representing the majority that doesn’t want Trump.
See you after the big Trump NY and CA wins!
Exactly...The public doesn’t want Cruz...Even the GOPe doesn’t want Cruz...
They just want Trump less...That’s why the GOPe is on top of Cruz in the political bed...
The public wants and needs Trump...
You don’t like to be reminded about Trump’s weak points? We should only have praising articles for him?
I disagree, Trump talks big, but also wins big in the over all race as he is still hundreds of delegates ahead and set to sweep the Northeast states. Thankfully they are primaries where the people’s vote actuslly matters...plus with the new California poll showing Trump at 49% and Cruz dropping to 31%, I think Trump proves he can lose a few battles, but win the overall war.
Actually it's a sign of fiscal maturity. Instead of wasting his money there, he's spent nothing to expose once against the scam that is the Republican party and it's new girlfriend, Ted Cruz.
If it costs some of those same scammers and scammer supporters calling him a whiner, well that's like free advertising.
IMAGINE a president who spent our money so well, or, rather, didn't spend it so well.
You think Trump will win the most delegates in California? Hahahahahahaha! Go read the rules for that state.
Ted Cruz spent four years in a private law practice, but you probably wouldn’t know that since you don’t want to know any more than Trump tells you.
“...Representing the majority that doesn’t want Trump...”
ROFLMAO!!!!! That’s hilarious!!!!!!!
Uhhhhh, take look at the public vote count, Savage...Then get back to us...LOL
Yeah, Trump has trouble against the corrupt, entrenched GOPe crooks who have greased the skids for their designated insider, Jeb Bush. Since Ted Cruz is now their designated insider, he is the beneficiary of their "greased skids" scam that was specifically designed to thwart "outsider" efforts.
This delegate theft has nothing to do with Ted Cruz's ground game. Even Rush Limbaugh admitted it a few days ago. It's all about being the GOPe darling, and benefitting directly from the goodwill of the party insiders.
And to the People, it looks like what it is: crooked.
What other reason could there be for Ted Cruz tanking in the polls?
Why is "surging" Ted Cruz running a distant third place, behind even John Kasich, throughout the Northeast?
It must be because of all the "savvy" Cruz is showing!
I hope he keeps playing this petty game, because the more he does, the more he looks exactly like a part of the Establishment he was supposed to be against.
Image is everything, and Cruz's image is suffering because of these shenanigans.
Tuesday night,m and the Tuesday after that, are going to be sweet!
Ted Cruz has lost. He will have been mathematically eliminated after the next Tuesday or two. His only hope was to get the nomination at a contested GOP convention, which would irreparably splinter the party, and guarantee a GOP defeat in November.
Simply put, that's not going to happen. Not even the crooked GOPe is that stupid.
Vote Trump
“If the frontrunner is underperforming, what can be called the runner ups performance?”
Less popular. Is that the criteria for electing a President now?
Election versus Delegate selecTED.
