‘He who pays the piper calls the tune’. It will become apparent soon enough. His masters will expect something from their investment.


Very well put! Thanks!

“Rubio’s delegates are free to vote as they wish even in the first round if he says so.”

That would depend on the state rules - I imagine some/many of Rubio’s delegates are unbound and he can make suggestions that they may or may not follow.

In Georgia Rubia has a bunch of delegates that are bound to him on the first ballot.

There are 858 still available delegates
Trump needs 482 delegates or roughly 56%
Cruz needs 692 delegates were 80% of the delegates remaining

It depends a lot on state and national rules, including interpretation. Under state rules in almost all states and under national rules, when Rubio suspended his campaign, his delegates were free to vote as they wish. When he changed his mind and said he didn't want to free his delegates, it's not clear whether that rebound his delegates or suspending his campaign was a decision that cannot be undone.

Apparently you can’t read and/or can’t comprehend plain English. I never said you can’t burn anything.

Oh not in specific words, you're just trying to use the time honored leftist tactic of smearing anyone who won't fall in line with you by labeling them, or comparing them with a NAZI

I only stated what burning a book represents.

In YOUR opinion.

And it the symbolism of book-burning is fascist.

Mass book bookings, yes. Implemented by a fascist or Nazi regime, yes. But YOU are attempting to label and smear an INDIVIDUAL for simply exercising their right to dispose of their property as they wish, and for whatever reason they choose.

It certainly isn’t enlightened. I didn’t try to prevent antceecee from burning her book.

Of course you did. You were attempting to shame her by comparing her individual action with the actions of Nazis in 1930's Germany who were engaged in a MASS burning of books.

She is free to be a retard, but you are even more of one for refusing, like good Trumpanzee you appear to be, to admit the obvious appearance of that ritual of historic oppression of free thought.

Here come the smears and labels again. "retard", "Trumpanzee". It's in your Alinsky-DNA isn't it?

As for your wailing about the ritual of historic oppression of free thought, that doesn't even apply in this discussion because NOBODY was (or is) attempting to do any such thing. YOU, like the good little fascist you are, were attempting to smack antceecee and everyone else into line by your hideous comparison of her individual freedom to act as she chooses with German Nazis and if you HAD any shame, you ought to be ashamed of yourself for that.

Burn your zippy the pin head comics too while your at it and your midget transvestite pron too.

Don't have any but thanks (NOT) for giving us all a glimpse of what your mind apparently dwells on.

Sounds like when he first announced in 2016.

You HOPE so. There’s a difference. The siren call will be too much for him to bear.

” Don’t miss full throated conservatism on display”

Full throated conservative?

It has been a while since I listened to that idiot, but when I did he was condemning Rubio at every chance because of what Rubio was saying about his pet.

Ted Cruz campaign hand picks Delegates. How do I know this? In Iowa, as in every other state, the Cruz campaign vets the proposed delegates. They determine what they have done for the Cruz campaign, time, money etc. Then the delegates have to sign a pledge to support him.

The Cruz delegates will not be flipped, just like the Trump supporters will not be flipped.

Hey, good seeing you on the thread.

Yes Trump may have a hard time ‘finding’ a VP.

The delegates may just impose Cruz on Trump.

Or Cruz could just elect to wait until 2020 or 2024 without having been Trump’s VP.

Cruz has done well enough where that is an option...

Rubio effectively endorsing Cruz effectively lowers Cruz’s ‘magic number’.

I'm not sure Cruz would accept it even if that is what the delegates wanted. Seems like it would be a miserable job to be No. 2 to a guy for whom there is mutual loathing.

Not sure it even helps much in the general election, either.

Bush and Reagan loathed each other at first.

Well thanks FRiend, I appreciate that! I gotta say however, this thread from last night has to be one of the wilder ones.

And between now and when the CruzTanic finally seeks beneath the waves, it’s only going to get crzier, lol

Have a great rest o’ the week!

They weren’t buddies, but it wasn’t nearly this personal. They basically had the “voodoo economics” disagreement on policy. But both were pretty mature, decent guys who knew the other would always act the gentleman. Bush also was not in office at the time, and really had nothing to lose.

These two guys have a visceral dislike, and whether you like him or not, I think most people would acknowledge Trump would not be a fun guy to work for if he didn’t like you.
