Before Wisconsin there were 867 delegates remaining. 

To reach 1237 delegates Trump required 56% of the remaining delegates. 
To reach 1237 delegates Cruz required 88% of the remaining delegates. 

After Wisconsin there are 825 delegates remaining. 

To reach 1237 delegates Trump requires 58% of the remaining delegates. 
To reach 1237 delegates Cruz requires 89% of the remaining delegates. 

Cruz has moved closer to elimination.

Even if he had 11 more Wisconsins it wouldn’t be enough, he’d be eliminated. He’s just too far behind.

LOL!

The “essence” of the man from Glad is perfectly captured.

This guy is clinically ambitious, bought, paid for and in debt for life to the tentacles of the globalists and North American Union cartel.

And.... Heidi paved his ditch to get them.

You overestimate Hillary and underestimate Trump.

Sounds like a scene from Gone With The Wind.

Trump is about to shut off any numerical chance Ted Cruz has of attaining 1237 delegates pre convention.

This is referenced as Trump growing weaker?

Nowhere is it mentioned that Ted might be weaker, having been eliminated from getting the delegates he needs prior to the convention.

It’s just comical to watch you folks flail around in your magic make believe world.

Not to worry, nullifying the majority of voters who voted for Trump is still the only pathway for Ted. He doesn’t think the vote is sacrosanct like Conservatives do.

What did we tell you about this guy?

The establishment is coming to Cruz. He will not compromise his principles for them.

The party has to come together or we lose our Republic to socialism.

Yep. Whatever else one thinks about Hillary, she is a policy wonk and has a great grasp of the details of government and policy. The Donald would be left blustering, boasting and insulting - the things he does best.

I disagree. Hillary can spout policy all day long. Trump is very poorly prepared as he demonstrated when Chrissy Matthews made a fool of him.

Let’s see what happens in a couple of weeks if Trump beats the stuffing out of Ted in New York and expands his delegate lead to well over 300. Then, the week after where Ted has to go into five northeastern primaries, all of which few thinks he has any chance in.

Clearly, Cruz is in the driver's seat!

Megyn Kelly, Karl Rove, Dana Loesch and Stephen Hayes were all propping up Trump? You’re nuts.

RE:”. Strikingly, more than a third of Republicans in Wisconsin exit polls say they’d be scared under a Trump presidency, with another two in 10 saying they’d be concerned. “

That's only 5 of 10, half scared of him as a POTUS

What's wrong with the OTHER 50% of Republicans?

A Hillary/Trump debate would be a popcorn/kleenax moment.

I would cry and end up throwing the entire bowl at the TV screen.

How many days till New York primary where Donald will destroy Cruz. I’m already bored of this “TRUMP CAN’T WIN” garbage.

Two weeks from last night, Apr 19 ... Cruz will be mathematically eliminated from getting 1237.

LOL.

More AIR WAR campaigning from the Cruz/DC Cartel media hoping to capitalize on a single state outcome in WI to propagandize TRUMP supporters and drug the flock of geese following Cruz around.

Who would have EVER believed little Teddy would be propped up by the enemy of the people, just six months ago.

You remember, back when Ted was railing against the “DC Cartel”, who are now using him as their drug mule.

Cruz will never be the nominee.

HA! HA!

Ted has two more weeks to pretend he is a viable presidential candidate.

Trump’s bad temperament and lack of preparation are becoming more apparent by the day<.

That's why he swept Lyin' Ted in the south and has 250 delegate lead?

Let's see what you have to say after the New York and northeastern primaries.

All the GOPe and Ted and all their PACs can manage to do, at best, is keep Trump just under 1237 delegates.
