Just an hour ago on MSNBC, a Trump spokesman, on the topic of Cruz’ efforts in up state NY, ridiculed Cruz for doing well in “places where nobody lives”. So, I guess we can infer that that is also the attitude of the Trump campaign about Colorado. I guess nobody lives there. I’d rather spend time with the people in “fly over country” any day over those arrogant, obnoxious people who apparently inhabit NYC.

People criticize Cruz over his NY values comment but, meanwhile, the Trump campaign keeps insulting people in “fly over” territory with all the gusto of liberal east coast democrats.

Interesting, and untrue. Trump did exceptionally well in Wisconsin’s rural, less-populated, areas. That’s how he won his six delegates. Cruz won the state by doing as well as Trump, or better, in the more populated parts of Wisconsin.

For that reason, I question whether Cruz will be able to make much of a dent in the rural areas of NY state, but maybe he’s just trying to get second place so he wins one delegate if Trump is held under 50%. Given the Wisconsin results, though, holding him under 50% in rural NY might be tough. But I don’t know NY state politics so I could be way off base.
