It seldom goes this deep. The later states have pro-forma rules to be cheap — because their results almost never matter. Not the case now.

That said, I am laughing at all the fancy-pants people upset that the yokels dare to have their own way of doing things.

Small county Republican activities are shoe-string operations, run by solid conservatives. Of course they like Cruz. Why anyone is surprised they don’t like a NYC loudmouth like Trump is the real mystery.

Most of the delegates will be GOPe types. That is the way it works. Being chosen to be a delegate to the national convention is a perk and a reward for party bosses. They will stop Trump in the first round and then vote for a "fresh face" thereafter.

There are plenty of Rubio and Bush supporters in the delegate pool. It is why Mitch McConnell says he is looking forward to a contested convention. It surely isn't to nominate Ted Cruz.
