Things arent nearly so competitive on the Republican side, with Donald Trump getting a majority of voters in each state. Hes strongest in Rhode Island where he gets 61% to 23% for John Kasich, and 13% for Ted Cruz. The numbers are very similar in Connecticut with Trump getting 59% to 25% for Kasich, and 13% for Cruz. Things are a little bit different in Pennsylvania where Trumps share of the vote isnt as high (51%) and Cruz edges out Kasich 25/22 for second place. None of these states are particularly amenable to the Never Trump movement. Trump has the highest favorability rating of the GOP candidates in each state, and also handily wins head to head match ups with Cruz and Kasich in all three states. One thing that comes across in all these places is how unpopular Cruz is- hes way under water even with Republican primary voters.

Cruz and the GOPe tell us Trump cannot beat Hillary. By losing to trump again and again doesn’t exactly show me that Cruz could beat her. Not really a lot of logic there.
TRUMPS Em all!
Trump is shown to have the best representation of all-income-levels income support:

Cruz, is the very worst.

Data in the last section.
Ted, don’t go away mad, jus go away.
Man, you blew it. I really liked you a lot several months ago. Now I see you as a sleazy power monger with delusions of grandeur.
Ted has a way to solve that problem:
And these will vote Trump,
and Ted will systematically steal the delegates?
Or will Trump WIN, WIN.
Time for new polls other than the tired old one that “Trump can’t beat Hillary”
These are obviously outdated numbers and now untrue - If it was ever true at all.
I did not see one Hillary sign in New York State before the primary. Not single one. I did see Bernie signs and bumper stickers.
Hillary is NOT liked. Cruz and Kasich are not liked by enough people at all and even those few left are changing their minds for Trump. The fact that Trump has garnered so many more votes turns the ridiculous statement that “Trump can’t beat Hillary” into pure propaganda and myth unsupported by reality.
Trump will beat Hillary handily, leave her sputtering and coughing in debates, and the dems know it.
It's called psy-ops. Trump is winning in landslides and is a real threat to the Dems (probably Hillary, could be Sanders). So, to try to take out the threat as early as possible, the media runs bogus polls showing that Cruz beats Hillary, and no one else comes close. We, the voters, are supposed to see that and switch our vote from Trump to Cruz without logical analysis. If enough people do that, then Hillary faces off against a weak opponent and wins handily.
It is a sad reality, but this tactic works. It gave us Romney, McCain, and Dole. Each one of them was supposed to be the only candidate who could beat the Democrat, and each one went down in flames.
But he’s for special rights for trannies and cross-dressers.
Is that for real?
Trump will exceed expectations again. He is also over 50% in Delaware.. Maryland was their biggest hope. A big win in Maryland will send a message.
If the GOPe really thought Trump would lose to Hillary they wouldn’t be this hysterical about stopping him.
While they keep SAYING he can’t beat Hillary, you can tell by what they’re DOING that they are afraid he can.
“...special rights for trannies and cross-dressers...”
Satire surely?
Trump is for states rights - let the states decide.
Those for Trump are for less government. This is a non issue.
He is way up in Maryland and Delaware. What do the Republicans in these states have in common? They are all ruled by nests of Democrats packed into small areas and they want a winner. Affirmative Action Teddie is being seen for the GOPe errand boy he is and they don’t like what they see.
In Ct and RI the news that Cruz was up to his old tricks in Maine didn’t help that’s for sure.
Seeing the following on facebook
from Bernie fans:”If Hillary cheats
Sanders out of the nomination
I’m writing in Bernie” (or sitting it out)
President Trump will thank them
for that! Yeah,THAT’ll work.
I remember 2008 when the mantra was that the Democrats really feared McCain. He was the man that could win because so many Democrats liked him and thought he was a reasonable Republican. Talking head shows fawned over him. He was a media darling.
Once he was nominated, the gloves came off and Oprah and her audience weren’t swooning over him anymore.
To a large extent, that was also true of Romney. But Romney actually should have won. In retrospect, picking Paul Ryan as VP was a weak move.
Actually, he could have survived the Ryan pick if he just pressed the attack in the second and third debates after scoring many points in the first. He went weak.
The media is pretty predictable about this, and conservatives predictably fall for it every time.
As long as conservatives remain persuaded by the MSM--and too many do allow the MSM to influence them--we will have difficulty winning elections.
The MSM really has a limited playbook, and they trot out the same old memes during every election. And they work--conservatives fall for them every time.
Cruz NEVER ONCE even bother to visit CT, pretty much has written it off to Trump.
