Do they suck it up or sit home on their hands?

Probably sit at home, if not cross over and vote for Hillary.

Yeah, everybody except: the knee-jerk Trump haters, the GOPe elite Establishment RINOs, big money donors, crony capitalists, lobbyists, K Street lawyers, Republican pundits and politicians, other beneficiaries of the status quo in Washington, DC. To them is is about their rice bowl and their power and their perks and their jobs. These people would rather have a Hillary Clinton as POTUS instead of Trump (or Cruz either).

The title of this article is a little misleading 54% say that we should support the front runner with the highest delegate count in July. I know that Trump supporters are certain that will be Trump, but following the true wording of the poll the 54% were not saying everyone should get behind Trump at this moment in time.

I think Cruz and Trump supporters are united in the fact that we believe that the clear front runner going into the convention should win the nomination.
There will be a few supporters whose own ego is so bruised that they will take their marbles and go home. Our problems will be pulling in Kasich and Rubio supporters. The Republican Party has too many strong minded individual. Liberals are sheep and they will always follow the leader. Conservatives dig in for the duration and won’t budge. I don’t feel very optimistic right now.

Thanks for the picture of Donald with a smile. Much better than his grumpy face that we see so often.

It looks more and more as though Donald Trump will be the nominee. This is what needs to be put forth now - a more pleasant persona. He can still be tough in his talk as long as he avoids being vulgar.

Yeah right like how Cruz won Michigan, Ohio, and all the southern states? LoL. It's a single state match up on the calendar and a open primary, and Cruooz already is way behind in the poll(s) Goodbye Cruoooz.

To predict Wisconsin, I think you only have to ask which states have most similar GOP demographics and look what happened there.

Further, I believe the correct answer would be Michigan and Illinois.

Do they give you a clue?

You gotta hope that people will still vote for the house and senate races. Even if that person can’t stomach Trump then you have to believe that Republicans holding the senate and house and getting gridlock is better than just staying home all together.

The candidate that reaches 1237 first should get the nomination PERIOD! Even if this happens BEFORE the convention. If it's Cruz we unite behind him. If however, it is Trump we unite behind him. None of this lets see what happens going into the convention. Either we have UNITY or we LOSE and lose BIGLY!

Of course they will all the while telling every one else that staying home if Trump wins nod is a vote for Hillary.

I will support which ever one (Cruz or Trump) wins the nod and I do not want a brokered convention.

I would/will stay home if a convention takes away the nod from the front runner and gives it to Romney, Kasich, Rubio, Jeb, or anyone but the winner of the top two fighting it out.

If the will of the voters is ignored, the voters will ignore the candidate come November. SIMPLE AS THAT!

I agree totally. Trump gets 1237 before the convention everyone should unite.
