Good that it’s close now, and I hope Cruz can win it with a late surge of actual conservative Republicans!
Dream on... It’s wishful thinking.

It’s in the top 15 most Republican-registered states. Most of those are in the west where Cruz has won handily.
Fox’s Luntz Indiana panel was strange last night. A lot of people were ripping Cruz for nonsensical reasons. Still complaining about the CNN report of Carson dropping out in Iowa. They called the Kasich/Cruz pact a “backroom deal,” which doesn’t fit the definition of the word since it was openly announced. Almost all of them said they liked Carly for V.P. though because of her debate performances and anti-Hillary rhetoric.
If Trump wins Indiana, then I think the race is over and he’s going to get to 1237 before the convention. It is a key example of a state where Kasich staying in (despite not “campaigning” there) causes a vote split which lets Trump win with a plurality with a small margin.
I’m not going to predict how it will turn out, but when a person can’t even find a Cruz sign anywhere in the most conservative counties in the state while seeing dozens of Trumps, it doesn’t look good for Ted.
Cruz is dead in this primary. The lies he is saying today hopefully will hurt him badly. Doesn’t know Boehner very well but was his lawyer. Biggest liar in America. A complete disgrace.
It doesn’t matter if he wins Indiana or not...he cant win anymore. Where have you been?
Or, do you think it is still justifiable for him to try and steal 2nd ballot after he was humiliated last week not even finishing in 2nd place in major states?
Any candidate who cannot even get 2nd place or not even 20% at this late in the game cannot win a general election either.
It’s nowhere near “close” - Trump has a 10 point lead and gaining. Indiana has such strict laws it makes polling difficult but those numbers were before the Cruzich Collusion flop, the Hail Carly flop, and before the most revered man in the state of Indiana Bobby Knight started making speeches endorsing Donald Trump.
Indiana will be the end of the road for Lyin’ Ted, whether or not he is man enough to admit it.
Conservative? I do not think that word means what you think it means.
6% is not close...that used to be called a landslide...until Trump came along and had real landslides.
Cruz is effectively Hillery’s running mate at this point.
Cruz has already lost. I doubt he will even be able to hang on to his job as senator after his miserable failure.
There was a time when he could have become the VP....not anymore. Maybe Beck will hire him for something light and easy.
Stick a fork in him, he is done!
Real conservatives do not support open borders or TPP. Cruz is a liberal wolf in sheep's clothing. 85% of true conservatives have figured this out.
Have you been paying attention? Cruz opted to concentrate on Indiana when it became obvious the whole northeast was a total wash for him. He's dropped in the polls since then and is likely to drop even more as reality sets in among the voters.
Cruz's base of those who are excited/eager to vote for him has gotten so thin that he couldn't beat a Clinton/Sanders/Obama ticket right now.
