Horowitz: 8 Key Observations from Cruz's Super Saturday Win
Conservative Review ^ | March 6, 2016 | Daniel Horowitz

Posted on 03/06/2016 2:15:57 PM PST by GodGunsGuts

For most non-political junkies last night was just another quiet Saturday night. However, in the world of politics, which will determine the trajectory of our country for the next four years, last night might have been the turning point. If Cruz winds up upsetting Trumpmania in this election, last tonight’s largely overlooked contests will have been the Battle of Midway of this nomination war...

Here are the 8 key outcomes:

1. Cruz is surging...

2. Rubio/Kasich playing spoiler...

3. Rubio is out of luck...

4. Kasich is the new Rubio...

5. Closed caucuses/Primaries matter...

6. Early voting is a killer...

7. RNC Rule 40...

8. Cruz can beat Trump...

One must win 8 states or territories to be the nominee, IIRC.

Hilarious. Bernie and Cruz won the same states yet I hear nothing about Bernie beating Hillary. The media wants this primary to go on....big advertiser money. If you think the media won’t turn on Ted and give the election to Hillary, you are so wrong. Cruz can’t win the south (not one state). That is our bread and butter. That should send shivers down your back.

Not sure if their interpretation of why it won’t apply is valid, but great synopsis nonetheless:

“1. Cruz is surging...”

Momentum in politics is HUGE, and momentum is a fried of Sen. Cruz!

The only thing it proves is the GOPe is pulling out all the stops to elevate cruz over Trump. cruz is the GOPe’s bitch, and if they were able to push Trump out, they would immediately turn on him. cruz is very valnerable because of his support for TPA and vote for the corker bill. Add to that cruz lied to Texas voters to get elected Senator. Texas would never have elected the first Canadian United States Senator if they had known the truth about his Canadian citizenship.

Yeah, but can he win Ohio, Florida, Virginia, Michigan, and Pennsylvania in November. He has lost and will lose in all those states this spring. He’s a weak national candidate.
