Those who had Cruz “above 50” are morons. He has not been viable since.... well I’m thinking... give me a minute.. Okay he has not been viable since Iowa.

What kept Cruz in the game this long was that Texas was one of the first primaries. That was a huge haul of delegates for Ted Cruz. Had Texas been later in the game, Cruz would have been knocked out by now.

Aside from Texas, Cruz has only won three primaries: Oklahoma, Idaho and Wisconsin. All his other victories have come through caucuses, conventions and other inside-baseball methods in which party apparatchiks control the process.

In terms of primaries (whether open or closed) in which the people get to actually vote, Trump leads Cruz by 24-4. Soon to be 25-4 after the results come in tomorrow night.

This really isn't close at all.
