Clean sweep for Cruz in early stages of Colorado delegate hunt

Trump could finish with 1,000 delegates: then they bring in Mittens for another round, just when we thought we had voted for Mittens for the last time!

Fair game IF citizens can vote. That was not my issue it was the joy that a small group of political persons do the selecting versus electing. I take no joy when ALL citizens don’t have the courtesy of being able to vote. Who they vote for is between themselves and God.

My son’s life will never be as it might have been for what— we thought for our nation and freedom. Seems we might have been wrong.

Or Trunp finished with 1000, and Cruz outmaneuvers Trump on the second ballot. Given what we have seen in regards to the shallowness of the Trump campaign, this is a VERY likely outcome...

At least in my state, I can attend my precinct convention and am almost automatically a delegate to my county convention. From there, it is not that difficult to attend the state convention (almost automatic as an alternate). If I convinced several others to do the same who would support me or could convince the majority to vote for me in my congressional district caucus, then I could be a national delegate. Yes, that's easier said than done, but if there was someone that has been active in the party and supported your candidate, they would have a better chance.

It is pretty much a matter of getting people to show up.

“The Establishment props Cruz up and these state officials are doing the delegate picking”

Are you in any of “those” states and do you have any idea what is really going on that is anything other than paranoid conjecture? Do you know any of the folks who are being picked?

I am and I do and you have no idea what you are talking about, at least when it comes to my neck of the woods.

So you were in the Saturday morning meeting??

A sCruz supporting pundit on the Patriot channel, at Serius Radio, was interviewing the two reps LIVE from both the TRUMP and sCruz campaigns. Both were complaining about being LOCKED out of delegate selection going on with Establishment office holders inside.

Tell me all about it. We are all ears.

Obviously this interview I heard has not been picked up on the msm.

“Both were complaining about being LOCKED out of delegate selection going on with Establishment office holders inside.”

If they care so much, why weren’t they inside? I was and they don’t know what they’re talking about.

Saturday morning, the moderates tried to elect some squishes as national delegates by running folks who claimed to be Cruz supporters. Six months ago, they would have spit on Cruz’ picture. The squishes lost all three delegate spots in our assembly and two of the three alternate spots. That’s despite the fact that the squishes spent a lot of Bob Beauprez’s money trying to run as fake Cruz delegates.

He creamed Trump this weekend in North Dakota delegate selection, too. Looks like Ted may well snag a hefty haul there, at least.
