My understanding is, if Cruz gets more than 10% of the vote, which it looks like he will get, he will get a proportionate number of delegates.
His delegates are not listed on the websites now, because the counting is not over.
I would love to see Rubio get 9.99999% of the vote and get no delegates.
You're probably one of those sheep who pay income tax because you don't know the Constitution wasn't properly amended. I'll bet you don't even know Texas is really an independent country for the same reason.
If people weren't so gullible, they'd immediately know the writer of this article hit the nail on the bullseye!
Almost none deserve to be taken seriously.
I agree with you that Cruz has peaked early and the piece we are commenting on is delusional at best.
Trump is ahead in SC in RCP averages by 16 points. His lead isn't going down in the next few days after winning NH. It may go up.
If Trump wins SC, he's a runaway train.
Trump is the overwhelming favorite.
I agree. Which is one reason I think Trump will implode or be blocked.
It said on CNN Trump and Kasich got delegates but nobody else.
Look how screwed up the Dems are. Hillary WON!

Actually, he is in second place and will probably remain there. I can see him getting closer to Trump as time goes on, but I wouldn’t bet any money on it. As for the rest, they’re toast.
Looks like Trump is up as of right now by 17% in SC. That’s an awful lot of votes he needs to lose. It’s possible Ted makes a big move, but I have my doubts.
That’s sweet.
Actually, I was buoyed by Cruz picking up 2 more delegates - and in NH! no less.
The media pretty much ignored him all week, and if they mentioned him it was quite dismissive, so I’m quite pleased with the turnout in NH for Ted Cruz.

Surely you are better than this.
Will Cruz endorse and support Trump or Jebbie when the time comes ?
[I woulda been happier with a Cruz second place finish, because Kasich is a waste of space]
There’s no guarantee CRUZ will finish 3rd. Apparently they stopped counted the votes at 92% of the precincts in. How long does it take a little state like that to count a few votes?
if any of this piece was close to true Cruz would have a good lead in SC right now.. he doesn’t.. he is getting trounced here in SC by about what he was getting kicked in NH by,, then Trump is going to get a decent bump in SC from his huge victory in NH and just how is Cruz going to win SC again?.. btw SC doesn’t vote on religion like Iowa either no matter how many evangelicals live here.. those are good old boys and they like to kick ass,, Trump kind of people.. plus a huge number of retired military,, another big Trump voter base
It’s time to stop the infighting. Cruz will make a great vp.
I actually said I was "happy as hell".
Reading comprehension: it's not just for humans.
Here you go, CW, some like-minded smear-artists have a seat at their table for you:
