Cruzers live in a Fantasy world, they think the convention will hand it to him...not going to happen, they will hand it to Kasich, Cruz will be discarded like yesterday’s newspaper.

Can you give me a single link where a Cruz supporter thinks that the GOP establishment will nominate Cruz at a contested convention?

I see Trump supporters claiming that Cruz is part of the establishment and they are going to give it to him at the convention as a reward for taking out Trump, but I have yet to see a Cruz supporter claim that is the case.

In fact, almost every Cruz supporter I have seen (myself included) believes that if it goes to a contested convention Cruz has a 0% chance of getting the nomination.

So if you wouldn't mind, would you please provide a link for this assertion from a Cruz supporter?

I am a Trumper and you are right. There is no one-—other than Rush, who seems nutty on this-—who thinks a contested convention=Cruz win.

Which is all the more reason for him to drop out and endorse Trump. He can gain absolutely nothing by staying in except to hand the presidency to either Hillary or Yeb.

If I come across any links, I’ll send them to you.

I know that a few of the people who are saying they’re Cruzers are pulling for a contested convention, but I’m not sure if they support Cruz or just hate Trump THAT much.

And there was a news article about a week back about Cruz apparently being in favor of a contested convention? But I don’t remember it very well.

Speaking as another Cruz supporter, I agee 100%.

The GOPe wants no part of Cruz -- who would upset their applecart -- but will accept Trump, because they believe they can do deals with him.
