NBC's Hallie Jackson reports Cruz has changed his focus to Pennsylvania and making a play for the state's unbound delegates. Jackson, the network's Cruz correspondent, said even if Cruz has a third place finish in Pennsylvania, they'll win more than half the delegates.

...

"Even if they come in a distant third, a top campaign aide tells me, they will still, they believe, pick up more than half the delegates there."

Cruz would be going up against the masters of vote stealing and manipulation with the Democrats

Well, based on his behavior during the primaries Cruz would provide the Democrats with some strong competition for the title of "master".

It doesn’t work like this in the GE. Democrats make a career out of cheating and the methodologies are very different. And woe to all of us if voter fraud is accomplished through computer programming. The validation for that type of fraud lies with exit polling.

“There job is to represent the people...the voters..not the party bosses.”

Since when is a fat cat like Trump the “will of the people”?

Most voters have opposed him.

Certainly most grassroots conservatives.

I think you read someone else’s post.

Or read something into my post that’s not there.

If you think Cruz is “establishment,” I suggest you lay of the marijuana.

Yes, I’d want to run from the phrase ‘put in their time’ too.

Just like with Obama nobody really knows where Ted Cruz is from.

Barack “Don’t call me Hussein” Obama
Ted “Don’t call me Rafael” Cruz

There are quite a few similarities between them. Very odd, IMO.

Are you threatening to kill someone if Cruz wins the nomination?

A lot of people think of a primary the same way as the general.

A lot of people are completely ignorant about local politics.

The way to make a difference? Simple: Show up.

Well you could fill a page with the similarities almost too many to be by chance. I’m not much into conspiracy theories but it does make me shake my head and wonder.

“Certainly most grassroots conservatives.”

So what you’re saying is the they have more weight? Do they carry 1.5 times the vote?

such brazen displays of ignorance. We are not a democracy Maxi. Far from it. But your assertive ignorance of the political process is typical of those who wont put the effort required to persevere. The Dems know the rules and will scrap like deranged raccoons when the chips are down.

Leaving LIV like you to seek rabies injections.

I’m not going to get upset by all this. I’ll vote for Trump in the PA Republican primary on April 26 and try to find out if the delegates for my district support Trump. I’m in Congressman Tim Murphy’s district, western PA.

At minimum the Unbound and Super Delegates remove legitimacy from the Government. Non representative government = no consent of the governed. This adds to the long list of government abuses and could very well lead to massive civil unrest on both sides of the political spectrum.

“Small county Republican activities are shoe-string operations, run by solid conservatives.”
