We did the math. Cruz was smart to campaign in a Bronx district with almost no Republican voters.

You have to throw the race card? Or are you claiming he was unfairly convicted?

Cruz is clearly the most brilliant man in the universe!

Don't be ridiculous, everyone knows that title belongs to Trump, after all he tells us so almost every day!

I hate to ask because I think your posts are dreadful but why are you so enamored with Bill Mitchell?

Is this person important in some way?

HLM also once said that every election is an advance auction on stolen goods.

Why do you call him a “turd” employer?

I am guessing you don’t have any substantive arguments.

Am I right?

Actually, neither. Although as I recall, the conviction was a little iffy, IIRC. In any event, Tyson has "paid his debt to society".

Ted Cruz is the one who threw the race card in this campaign. One of the main reasons he lost my support.

I was simply pointing out that Donald Trump is doing will with appealing to the Black community.

Donald Trump's broader demographic appeal and potential is yet another advantage he enjoys over Ted Cruz, and why he will be a much stronger general election candidate.

Vote Trump...

Yeah, but he doesn't use the words “copulation” and “rat” in the same sentence.

If Mike Tyson the rapist says so, then it must be so.

Trump winning New York is not very impressive.

Cruz is an excellent conservative candidate.

Trump is anti conservative.

Tyson come out on his own. I don’t even remember Trump mentioning anyone except Dana White.

“Cruz looked like a fool campaigning in the Bronx, and a lot of people made fun of him for it, but it was actually brilliant. In a 99% democrat district, a few dozen extra voters could give Cruz the delegates. Cruz might have won those votes just by showing up where no other republican would ever go. Trump needs to have his people working every district, especially the ones that only have a few republicans. It’s not just about the headlines for his landslide. Cruz is gaming the system for the delegates (which is what matters), and Trump needs to play the game he’s in by the rules of that game.”

I beat the writer by four days, although this should have been obvious to any professional. I wonder if he reads FR for inspiration, or if he’s one of the few intelligent journalists working these days.

Yes but the south was impressive and with the northeast the combo makes it impressive.

Cruz just needs to keep Trump away from 1237.

I think he can do that.
