Just because the New York Times prints it doesn't necessarily mean it is a lie.

Send the Cuban-Canadian back to Canada. He WON'T beat Hillary with his record of dirty tricks, sealed records, bizarre religion and the universal unlikeability factor.

(and by the way US seniors, do you realize the Cuban Canadian wants to CUT YOUR SOCIAL SECURITY?? DOES THAT MATTER AT ALL TO YOU????

Ted was able to gain the delegates earlier support by threatening them to keep talking and talking and talking ......

Support softening?

Needs some TEDtosterone.

No, Mr Cruz, it is not. You win primaries and then you win on the first ballot.

He knew he couldn’t win the normal way so he had to play games to win a second ballot if there was one.

There won’t be one. Bye, Ted.

“This is how Selections are won in America,” Mr. Cruz gloated after walking away with the most delegates in Wyoming last month.

Fixed it.

Ted Cruz tried to pull off the loser strategy of Ron Paul: Lose, lose and lose, but try to win by winning these delegate conventions.

Next time Cruz runs for the GOP presidential nomination again - and we all know he will - instead of the Ron Paul Strategy, he should try the novel approach of actually winning some primaries.

[JudgemAll]

Will these delegates also get the boot? Courted delegate? Really!? They were selected to vote Cruz or else removed.

[ManHunter]

Softens? I was once a Ted Cruz supporter and mine has melted completely.

[Brookhaven]

Many of these delegates are either local Republican office holders, or hope to run for office one day. Going against the will of the voters is not a good way to endear yourself to the voters.

Take Georgia. The party stuffed the delegates with Cruz supporters.

Here are the primary numbers:

Trump: 39%
Rubio: 24%
Cruz: 24%
Carson: 6%
Kasich: 5%

I suspect, with Rubio & Carson out of the race, that if the primary were held today Trump would have well over 50%. Just splitting the Rubio votes evenly between Trump and Cruz throws Trump to 50%.

If you want to run for office as a republican. You don’t want to piss off 50% of the GOP voters. Being seen as at least neutral is your best bet.

Cruz is betting these delegates will follow him in a “win now or die” strategy. They won’t.

Note to Ted: The reason for this shrinking is because America now knows you for the shamwow that you are or in the immortal words of the kid in LaPorte Indiana...”you suck”!
