It’s kind of fun to watch the Cruzaders put on their best lawyering caps to defend Ted supporting the idea of taking the nomination away from the biggest vote-getter.
In addition to that, they completely ignore what he said THREE DAYS AGO (before the Bush camp began calling the shots). They’re mincing words between contested/brokered, like it matters. It doesn’t. This flies in the face of what Ted just said the other day.
Ted Cruz says he doesn’t want a contested convention

It’s clear once you open the convention can of worms the base will lose. Period. The GOPe will ram through there preferred candidate. Probably Ryan. Therefore, the nom has to go to the candidate with the most delegates.
Cruzers know that. So what we’re seeing now is the Trump hate come out in the Cruz camp now. They’d rather see a Ryan or Romney ticket than Trump. Couldn’t be more obvious, IMO.
Except it doesn't. From your link:
"Any time you hear people talking about a brokered convention, I think that is the fevered talk of the Washington establishment," he continued. "The Washington establishment is in a panic. They're confused. They don't understand what's happening."
