Needs to be repeated.
Win 37% of the vote, then don't work to pick up your delegates.
Rally your supporters, claim the system is fixed, go third party, and give Hillary the win.
It's as if that were the scenario.
It’s “cheating” whenever Trump loses.
That’s Trump’s only rule.
I am not saying “want” or “not want”. You go to war with the army you have, not the army you want. There are screw-ups in every level, the best you can hope for is that the screw-ups are not significant. Is either The Donald or Ted Cruz the ideal candidate?
Hell no, to either. But even the most imperfect of men can do a yeoman’s job if they are in the right place at the right time, and there is simply not time to find the “perfect” candidate, which is to say, the one that won’t annoy the Republican Establishment. Do not make “perfect” the enemy of “probably the best we are going to do”.
You can be sure, the Democrats are sweating bullets about the candidate(s) they find themselves with, and their war is being fought on a much different level than the one the Republican Establishment THINKS they are fighting.

That was 2ndDivisionVet’s tagline a few years ago, back when he apparently was focused on Barack 0bama’s Presidential eligibility or lack thereof.]
I checked, and by golly, you are correct.

I could not have said this better myself!
Something tells me JimRob is likely as ticked as we are.
The Cruz people have opened up something that they will regret, that is for sure.
If Cruz had been honest and let people know he was a Canadian citizen in 2012, I would not have voted for the lying POS. I do not think he would be a Senator from Texas if he had not lied about that small factoid. I really despise Calgary Ted.
The Colorado GOP can set its primary up any way it wants. Its neither right nor wrong. It just is.
Here's the issue with the Colorado Caucus - the delegates are not bound. Had we had voting in CO and Trump won, wouldn't matter. Delegates aren't bound. Had we actually had presidential caucuses (no, we didn't - the presidential caucus was cancelled) and Trump won, wouldn't matter. The delegates are not bound. As a result, the will of the GOP voters in CO has been, was and will continue to be entirely ignored, no matter what. This was no victory for sCruz. This was sloppy, slimy politics, plain & simple.
If you support scheisty tactics to take delegates, then you clearly are a dishonest man. Good day.
Great catch!
And they still claim that Cruz is 1) brilliant 2) really, really, REALLY knows the Constitution 3) is “principled. LOL

Rush giving the Clintonian “ depends what the meaning of is is” in defending this latest chicanery.
I want to know where he got from, so tell us!
I was going to say what you did but I’ll add
Cruz isn’t going to win the nomination. That’s dreaming. The GOP will throw him under the bus just as soon as he has served his purpose. Just watch.
“Jeb Bush: Trump is ‘entertaining’, but I will win Republican nomination. “
[Cruz, GOP, and his supporters are damning America with their scorched earth policy.]
The GOPe showed who they really are with Thad Cochran.
Jim’s post #51 should have an impact on your mind, if you can be honest with yourself.
