Well, that’s true, but in fairness, it is his only way at this point, and pretty much since the first Super Thesday. I’m sure he never saw the Trump train coming, same was Walker, Paul, Bush, etc., and figured pretty quick a contested convention would be his only chance. His decision at this point is whether to roll the dice and possibly jeopardize his political future, and his prior standing as the “true conservative/anti-establishment”, to become a tool of the establishment and then be cast aside when the establishment is done with him. In that case, he winds up with no allies, which of course, he may not care, but will need those allies to get any traction w/ Congress.

If that second bullet never comes, Cruz has done no harm. If it comes, I want Cruz there to fire it, not Kasich.
