Agreed! Not sure about Dems crossing over, and Indies, but the problem is, a small "majority" of GOP votes state-by-state (less than 35-40 %) is not going to carry the day in the general election if 40 % or more GOP'ers voted for someone else in the primaries. Nor should it prompt calls for changing the nominating convention "rules" or claiming that "the system is rigged - unfair, UNFAIR"! There are a majority of folks who have not gotten behind Trump so far, I think...

It remains to be seen if the "meme" of Dems and Indies voters is true, and follows through in the actual POTUS race, if Trump is the nominee (likely at this point)...he is always saying how many votes he's won, and how many new people he's bringing into "the party"...

Personally, I have no horse in this race, I regretfully can not be enthusiastic about ANY of them, but I will broken-glass vote for whoever wins the GOP nomination because he will certainly be better than "Hillary!" or "the Bern".

FReegards!

So what you're saying is that Cruz and Kasich are unelectable in the general, right?
