Well, 2nd place worked for George W. Bush in 2000.

Since when is second place "winning"?

Excellent question......touches on my pet peeve.

Second (or third) place Cruz is now saying: “65,000 people voted in the state of Colorado. They just didn’t vote for you Donald Trump. They voted for our campaign."

Cruz is fond of that ploy-----labeling votes he received (or stole) as anti-Trump-votes.....but Cruz never applies Trump's voluminous vote-getting as being against him.

If Trump won by staggering numbers....that means Cruz lost by staggering numbers.....many many more rejected Cruz than they did Trump.

Does this look like Trump was rejected?

Trump.....8,256,309.... 37.0 1%....758 delegates

Cruz......6,319,244....28.33%.....533 (plus all he can steal)

Cruz keeps losing and losing. About time he bows out gracefully and admit he lost. And he should stop finagling the numbers.

================================================

Lowlife Ted ....the human cockaroach....is crawling around 24/7 grabbing delegates he is not entitled to.

If there were any failings, it's b/c the Trump people just did not envision the likes of a scumbag like St Ted, reworking the rules to HIS benefit.......the Saint is obsessed w/ Trump hatred, bent on undoing Trump's wins.

AS FREEPER SAM ADAMS76 POSTED: "Cruz would love to have Trump’s 'delegate problems.' Trump is hundreds of delegates ahead and about to ring up a couple hundred more before this month is up. What happened to Cruz’s much ballyhooed “ground game” in the Deep South? He had his head handed to him by a Yankee. I don’t see much Cruz ground game here in New York either. Except for some footprints in the Bronx where he made a rather hasty retreat. I guess Cruz isn’t in Kansas anymore." (hat tip Sam Adams 76)

My biggest gripe is con artist Cruz sees a "party rule" and connives to make it work only to HIS advantage. Crux is exactly the type of candidate w/ an obsessive thirst for power that the Framers of the Constitution wanted the new Nation to guard against.

When candidates lose, they gracefully bow out. St Cruz Gives a victory speech. His maniacal lust for power tags him as the kind of candidate the Framers of The Constitution wanted the new Nation to avoid.
