I did not realize Cruz had this much establishment support. If Cruz takes out Trump, they will turn on him.

“Question:
If no one gets the magic number of delegates, but trump has the most, then they go into overtime with the votes, who are the delegates representing if they change their votes?”

I wonder that, too. I have seen a rumor that Rubio has endorsed his alleged DC lobbyist mistress Dana Hudson to be a DC delegate. How cozy would that be?

He’s got the shoes, and I think a little of experience.

The powers that be made Rubio kamikazee his presidential campaign to get Trump. Sucks being a slave.

Cruzs’ job is to split the anti vote and prevent Trump from gaining the nomination. Then the GOPe can run with a Ryan or a Kasich in the general.

Those that are voting to stop another may not like the consequences of their action.

As long as they won and it wasn’t stolen at the convention I will support the nominee....

However, if the nomination is stolen by the elites, I WILL vote and not sit it out, however it will be for Hillary....

Trumps new ad is going to finish off FoamBoy for good

I hope it does.

I would like to see the rest of the primary campaign be Trump vs. Cruz.

One on one, in closed primary states.

"Alex Conant—the communications director for the Rubio campaign—came on our air last hour. He was very upset about this report.

The communications director main job isn't to write communications. It's to manage the message so that the message favors the candidate. So when Conant says

....that there is no dissent within the campaign, and once again repeated that Rubio was staying in.

He's lying. Because his job isn't to tell the truth. His job is to make Rubio continue to look as viable as possible for as long as possible. If he said "yes, these rumors are true", Rubio's campaign would be over before the words had time to echo.

But, we double checked with our source, who confirmed that our story was 100 percent correct.

I believe that 100%. Without reading this story, the idea that a campaign that's losing state after state and is down 15-20 points in their home state and doesn't have problems defies belief.

It's almost bye-ku time for Rubio.

insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different results.

Electing another ivy league lawyer and expecting a different result.

Insanity.

“who are the delegates representing if they change their votes?”

I hope they go Trump or Cruz... Any other direction and things get real crazy. Cruz will revolt, Trump will revolt, the riots may be inside the convention instead of outside.

Ahh so now it’s not the Ivy league that’s the problem. It’s lawyers. Not a bad change in tactics.

However, Cruz isn’t a trial lawyer and he’s not a proprietorial lawyer. He’s a constitutional lawyer.

He’s defended, successfully, your rights on many occasions.
Look it up - he’s one of the good guys even though he doesn’t support trump.

“That’s a trump quote. I don’t own it.”

I know; my apologies for not using double quotation marks.

A revolution is led by people with a vision and character

Stop with the clichés and conservative radio talk show host drivel. Shall I name you revolutions started and successfully implemented by people of character(aka were true to what they believed).

Che Guevara
Pol Pot
Lenin
Robespierre
Mao
Ho Chi Min

Solution, stop looking for Messiahs to lead you out of anything. Only one Messiah came and he sure wasn't Ted Cruz or Ronald Reagan and did not wrap himself in any flag, marching ahead of a guys in fatigues. At 50 years old, I've learned jingoists and crusaders are the ones to fear when it comes to politics.

Right.
So he;s a lawyer but not a trial one, got it LOL

You can rationalize it as much as you want, but the fact is that it is not the truth and you do not know what I would say if trump only got two primary states.
