At this point they are just here to virtue signal to each other.

“OMG, Ted totally like won the debate!”

If that’s what you think, then so what!?!

We had 10 of these things, and people are not talking them seriously. You will have yet two more for Cruz to yip and yap, then we can concentrate on moe important stuff.

Is Geraldo also going after T. Cruz for Beck’s threats to stab Trump?

Not likely! Ted is not being asked to disavow his trail mates statements without hesitation. You see it was all just a big joke. Certainly, no other crazed Cruz supporters would take his lead.

Hannity shilled a lot for Trump during the National Review flap.

Everyone on the Five on the Sunday episode was defending Trump on the KKK flap. Judge Janine has been a Trump shill for months.

Mark Levin had it exactly right the other day. Fox News will have a “Trump Day” and a “Rubio Day” but never a Cruz day. Whenever discussing election results or debates, usually after an hour in, Megyn Kelly will remark, “One guy we haven’t been discussing much is Cruz.”

Considering that Trump and Rubio hadn’t shown.

Eric Bolling on Laura Ingraham today said Rubio and Kasich have no path but Cruz has a small path.

He’s a Trump shill as is Ingraham, so I’d say he was underplaying Cruz’ potential.

I suggest buying your candidate some suits.

What is with his suits?

I’ve never seen him in a suit that fits.

I actually think he outperformed Trump at the Fox debate.

1) Kasich did an excellent job of outlining his foreign policy position

2) Cruz did well showing he is the more consistent than Trump

3) Rubio also came out swinging at Trump and hit hard

4) Trump appeared to be making it up as he goes along

It is largely in the eye of the beholder. The primary reason Trump gets the most airtime on every network is because he is generally guaranteed to be the most entertaining.

Cruz hired the best political consultants in the business and they and this contest have honed his image greatly, but he still does not have prime time presentation skills. He is not going to get enough of a mainstream following this time around to pick up a majority of the delegates before the convention. I assume that you and I both understand that the likelihood of the GOPe steering a brokered convention towards Cruz is nonexistent.

Cruz has managed to torpedo himself in the last couple weeks attacking Trump, but he is somehow going to try and stick it out to the convention. The GOPe will try to steer the convention towards him if Trump does not reach the magic number of delegates. That is his only realistic chance of getting the nomination. It is still a long shot.
