It’s proportional, but still why admit defeat?

Cruz supporters respect reality and don’t spend our energy deluding ourselves. I wish Selzer of DMR would analyze this primary.

Yes-—and I could be wrong-—but in SC you get delegates for every COUNTY you carry, plus for winning the state.

It is very odd. Why do this? To me, best words would be to say it will be close, every vote matters etc...

Just facing reality. Handwriting on the wall.

“...why admit defeat?”

Because you don’t want to look like a delusional pompom waver in the face of overwhelming Reality?

It's not admitting defeat to read current poll numbers in a given state. Nobody will win every state, not even Trump. The important thing is to be realistic, get the delegates they can, and wait to see how the next few dropouts affect the numbers... and wait and see if Trump will trip himself up yet or not. It's a long race to 1237 delegates. We are at 17-10 at the moment.

It is a Cruz trick to keep voters for Trump and other candidates from voting.

Is she trying to spin an expected epic blowout defeat? I can’t understand why she would do this.
