Going back farther it’s “Donald Trump is not a serious candidate”.

“CNN is not calling MI yet...interesting.”

Lame biased reporting from them.

They better call it, Trump’s about to make a victory speech.

Nice, two big Trump wins. Idaho probably won’t start coming in until 11pm eastern. I might stay up for that just to see who takes it. Seems like one of those poorly-polled tossups.

Hawaii polls don’t close until 1am, and it’s a caucus. Screw that, I’m not staying up all night to see a 9/8 delegate split between Cruz/Trump.

Hardly anybody wants to be seen celebrating any Trump victories, sounds like a bitter clinger syndrome.

Cruzers, will you PLEASE insist your guy drop out now? How many more embarrassing beatings does he want? I'm beginning to think he's a masochist.

And YOU guys, you Cruzers on FR, give it up, move on (to MoveOn.org or DemUnderground or Bernie Sanders or wherever the hell it is you came from and feel comfortable at.)

He may be a Yankee, but he is OUR Yankee...

And we like our Yankee. He’s scrappy.
