“Cruz s supposed to come in third tonight. NY is s liberal state and regardless of the ultimate Republican candidate, Hillary will still win NY by 20 points.”

Ah and there it is, the spin. Cruz is supposed to come in third among republican primary voters in New York because well, its a liberal state.... there is no such thing as a real republican there....

So, what’s the spin for Cruz not winning a single state except Maine to date east of the Mississippi? Are you going to claim he should have lost NC, SC, VA, KY, FL, AL, AK, MO, GA, MS, TN... etc, were those nothing but liberal states?

Would you argue Texas is a liberal state? Trump came in second there.

Cruz, bluntly just can’t win, and its delusion to believe that he’s going to get the nomination at a contested convention. The only state east of the Mississippi he’s won is ME, hes coming in third place in places during the home stretch (yes Virginia, NY will not be the only state where Cruz is going to come in last in the coming contests), and has only shown consistent victory is western caucus states. The notion he will swing 300 or 400 or 500 delegates his way in a contested convention with that track record is living in denial.

Same spin Trump used in Texas. You keep saying Cruz cannot win. I’m still trying to figure that one out. The only reason I can come up with is Trump voters will stay home and there won’t be any crossover Democrats. Cruz voters can say the same thing about Trump with the addition of, rat voters may crossover and vote for Trump, but then Trump will owe them.

The only republican that cannot beat Hillary is Kacich and the reason is, if you are either a Trump or Cruz voter you will stay home because it will be 2008/2012 all over again.

Cruz has just as good chance of beating Hillary as Trump does. I’m comfortable with either candidate.
