Cruz and his organization didn't get it done where it was presumed his message, appeal, support, and organization was strongest.

Exactly right. Those who can't see the writing on the wall at this point are being willfully blind...

If Kasich drops out, Cruz DESTROYS Trump going forward.

There are two problems with your assertion:

1. It's utterly false, even if Kasich did drop out.

2. Kasich isn't dropping out anytime soon.

Other than that, you're spot on...

Did Trump ever pay back his $150M loan to Soros? You know Trump owns shares in Goldman Sachs?

What part of the global left has Trump opposed? That is before last summer.

(I have * the ones I think Cruz could win one on one)

Here I have, I believe, the mega lotto numbers 6,12,22,37,42,48, 7

I can't wait to see which of us is correct.

Get a Mike Lee and a Louie Gohmert in there and the war is won.

Just give us the Senate and we will stop all of Obama's agenda. Oh wait we need the white House too, oh wait we can't really sop the President because it will shut the government down and we will be called nasty names. Maybe we can just bring in some illegals to replace all you whiners.

So two guys should get out because they can’t get 1237 on the first ballot, but the other guy is falling short, too, yet he should stay in. Did Trump get 57% of the delegates yesterday?

Why no he did not, you're right

DONALD TRUMP GOT 64% OF THE DELEGATES YESTERDAY!

By your math Trump who has 693 delegates now only gets 30% of the remaining 1061 delegates and ends up at 950?

By your reasoning Donald Trump who won 64% of delegates yesterday will now inexplicably lose half his strength thereby allowing Ted to hold him from winning outright?

What level of arithmetic did you achieve as a kid to ascertain this?

You and Mark Levin go to the same high school?

I mean come on....this forum is better than this dreamy for David Cassidy wishful think math

Free Republic much like America apparently has a severe math deficit

And logic and reasoning...like those IQ tests where you’re asked to eliminate the patterns or analysis which doesn’t fit

Cruziacs musta banged their heads on the side that determines reason and math against their crib rails.....milk mommy milk!!!!!

Bang bang bang

this is now bizarro land

All this plotting and attack mode over an eventuality that has a tiny chance of happening

Well done

A brain that works

In a sea of wishful thinking masquerading as fact

Trump will have to nose dive to lose now

And cruz triple up at a minimum

Ain’t happening

No you need the old guard out of senate leadership so they arent burrying and or extorting conservatives while giving their fellow progressives air.

Why turn over the presidancy to a cleptocrat?

Cruz still thinks that he can win this outright (he has yet to explain how he's going to get 70%+ of the remaining delegates, but never mind that), or is equally deluded to think that he can get nominated in a brokered convention. Neither is going to happen. He's being used by a GOP establishment that dislikes him almost as much as it dislikes Trump, and which will throw him out if/when he's helped them achieve their goal of a brokered convention.

Kasich, on the other hand, knows exactly what he's doing. He knows that he can't win outright, nor is he the RNC's first choice in a brokered convention. But by working with them, Kasich could be guaranteed a job in the cabinet of whoever the RNC does nominate if it goes brokered (my money would be on Jeb or Romney).

You are right IMO.

He can’t get over 83% of the remaining delegates.

The GOPe will never pick him.

And by Ted staying in, he proves how wrong everyone was to back him.

And now watch as his lame ass followers do their best to destroy the only person that has a chance to save this nation.

Ted Cruz was anti-establishment when Donald Trump was still a Democrat.

And which establishment was he against at that time? Trump had already left the Democratic Party and officially returned to the Republican Party four years before Cruz was sworn in as a Senator, so we are obviously not discussing the Washington establishment.

But destroying the conservative movement out of blind rage and replacing it with Trump, and the gravy train will consolidate power.

We just disagree on who is the most corrupt but it is not like we really have any thing to say about the outcome.

We have long been manipulated by the Government Oligarchs of both parties and have politely held our peace while the Fabian Socialists march us to our demise as a free people. There is no rational reason for the Western World leadership to ask their people to commit Cultural suicide, but yet they do. (actually an article on Drudge yesterday talked about a discussion at a university on whether white people should commit suicide because of white privilege) Merkle did not slow down when the people rejected her immigration plan to destroy the German Culture as well as all of Europe, she doubled down.

GW Bush signed legislation to build a fence in order to calm down the rejection of his Party's stance on immigration then immediately after the election, had the funding to build the fence, removed from the budget.

I used to marvel at how the Jews calmly lined up to be transported to death camps and wondered how the Germans could have accomplished this until I waited to board an airplane.

4 years ago when it was clear only Romney could win on the first ballot, did freepers call for the other candidates to quit and coronate him? Just the opposite, I seem to remember fantasies of a “brokered convention” and Palin riding in on White Horse..

What’s different this time? I tell you what, you believe Trump when he claims to be a conservative and you didn’t believe Romney, only difference.

A second ballot is fine with me, that’s the process. I wouldn’t worry too much if I were you. Seems to me plenty of Kasich lib delegates would prefer your Trump to a real conservative, and plenty more could be bribed or threatened into supporting Trump.

“graciously congratulate Trump on a well fought victory.”

He has not been fighting “well”. Effectively perhaps but “well”. Do you really expect Cruz to say “Congratulations for fooling idiots by calling me an anchor baby and whining for a revote when you lost Iowa, well played sir!”?
