The South must have been Trump’s liberal back yard as well. Nobody wants your boy, and his delegate scheme will fail. But, hey, if it does end up working, you can all pat yourselves on the back while listening to Hillary getting inaugurated.

Yeah, ok. Sure.

Whatever deluded hope, and cliche boilerplate retoric, gets the Cruz Cucks Clan through the day.

The idiot’s in another thread saying Trump won tonight by cheating.

Some posters, for whatever inexplicable reason(s), harbor a deep, burning emotional need to be forcibly ejected from whichever room they happen to be in at the time; whether to satisfy their own burgeoning martyr complex, or whatever-online-psychosis-have-you.

He's writing his own ticket. Let him. ;)

1. Backroom Softball debate questions now being schemed for his opposing general election candidate, as plot #2 begins.

2. Smear debate questions now being schemed against Trump, as plot #2 unfolds.

3. 24-7 smear post debate, general election, talking points now being crafted against Trump, as plot #2 continues right up to the Election.

He will not make his margins in the delegate count and his invested delegates, who are already suffering buyer’s remorse, will start pulling out after the first ballot.

But when your delusion lifts and you look up to see Donald Trump with the GOP nomination, you'll vote for him against Hillary in the general election, right?

Hate to pee on your parade, but my worry is this: If some Republican voters hate Trump, will they vote for a DemocRAT instead? This may force Hillary into the WH.

Conservatives need to rally, fast and furious, between now and November to ensure we have a Trump WH.

One of the BIGGEST areas that need attention: college students. They’ve been brainwashed, remember, to the liberal cause.

How do you explain the south then, and why cruz lost so badly down here?

Thanks gold for the post. I was very happy with the results last night.
I do have a serious concern that I hope folks here can explain. PA is considered one of the states that we have to win in the General to win the election. But I noticed that overall, more Dems voted in the primary than republicans. Not by much, but still more. Why are dems that motivated to vote, and will it carry over in the general?

Bernie’s bunch, the college students, will no longer have anyone promising them absolution of their debts incurred because someone convinced them that they needed a degree in anything to get a job. Meanwhile, the students who endeavored to work while going to school now have the experience of being employed who are beating out the freeloaders for what Little jobs there are to be had.

For most, it will be back to the campus parties while letting mommy and daddy worry about the debts they incur while their rooms at home are kept ready for the eventuality.

When the campaign starts against Hitlery, they will get a dose of reality and the few with any sense of common intuition will realize that a rising tide lifts all boats and they had better get in one or drown.

Ref:”Trump statistically will not win 57 percent of the delegates to get to 1237. He’ll be out by the second ballot.”

You are correct, Sir. The Trump-ets are trying to drown out any reasoned discussion on the on going competition. The NE is Trump’s liberal back yard and he was expected to win it. But he has run a campaign that is all hat & no cattle (in fact, when it time to produce some milk on his actual policies, he keeps putting the bucket under a steer). He will not make his margins in the delegate count and his invested delegates, who are already suffering buyer’s remorse, will start pulling out after the first ballot.

Here we have a guy who has proved all the critics wrong time and time again from the very outset and you keep saying he can't win. That puts you in the category of a clinger, clinging to an unraveling thread called delusion, which is the only thing you left at this point. Reminds me of Kasich who is selecting his presidential cabinet. Have you ever heard of the winning aura effect? For most people, a time arrives when they see the crescendo, the unstoppable dominoes falling and they realize it is high time to get on board and vote for a winner, rather than hang out with the spoilers. My friends, this is where we are in this primary process.

He told his opponents exactly what he was going to do. Go for the knockout. They let him overwhelm the states where he hit the near-impossible 60% thresh-hold and didn't even show in in the ring the last few days of campaigning.

It wasn't just a knockout, it was a humiliation for them.

Saturday I had an anecdote. My cousin and his closest friends who have had about 50 years of Republican Party and small town gov leadership in CT said they'd NEVER vote for Trump. Then Trump rallied in Waterbury, 10:30 AM Saturday. My cousin's reaction? Anybody who would go to Waterbury when they weren't forced to on a Saturday morning has his vote. Looks like a lot of such folks in CT thought the same way.

“Statistically”......”Probability” yes,

What do they say about the odds of winning the entire slate of delegates in Colorado? Or, a better example, 6 coin tosses in a row for precincts that are actual ties (number wise)?

There is a statistical no-chance in a supposed selection process that results in a clean sweep, without even one delegate outlier - just as the likelihood of winning 6 straight coin tosses after voter ties in 6 precincts.

The point here is that the Cruz faction and supporters are arguing and hoping for a win based on nothing but behind the scenes maneuvering without benefit of consulting the voters.
