Beats Cruz and Rubio combined. That’s good. They’ll both be out of the race in just a few weeks. Their campaigns start their funeral march on Tuesday.

51.2% of the voters don’t want Trump. We obviously can’t choose him. Rubio’s looking pretty good.

When its down to two Trump will get over 50%... that’s the reality the GOPe folks don’t want to accept.

Oh if only it were one on one, our guy Rubio or Cruz would top Trump and we would get the nomination because of winner take all when you are at 50% or more in both states... when reality is, if its down to 1 on 1, Trump will almost certainly be over 50%..... They just are in denial.

‘Beats Cruz and Rubio combined. That’s good.”

It sure is. With the Christie support and I bet others coming forward soon it will only get better.

Well, in that case, then 79.2% don’t want Rubio.

See how that works??

Yeah, you know it’s over when Cruz does a 180 and jumps in the sack with Marco Amnestio.

But it is not going to come down to Trump-Cruz-Rubio for very long. Soon after it will be Trump-Rubio. Like it or not that is where we are heading. Rubio is going to get all of the Anybody-But-Trump votes. Hopefully Trump will be far enough ahead and strong enough for long enough to withstand the full force attack of the Preibus-Rubio-MSM Axis.

The word is just getting out, certainly not through the media, about Cruz expressing his preference for Rubio AFTER the debate. The implications of the two probably ineligible (if it gets an honest court hearing) Cubans teaming up against US citizens is just beginning to sink in. It's Obama de ja vu.

What's my point? Some of those Cruz supporters who were hanging on until that statement will most likely come on over to Trump. Hopefully, enough of them will be in Texas.

28% down in this poll with zero wins on the primary horizon looks awesome for Rubio, right?

If Rubio and Cruz drop out, that “Wouldn’t Vote” number bumps up to to like 28% within the Republican party.

Trump can take 5% of them and that will do the trick!

Considering he's at 48.8% now it might approach 60%...at least comfortably in the 50's.

Dream on. Not every Cruz supporter is a selfish prick.
