The CO delegates were originally slated to all go for Jeb Bush. There wasn’t chance in the world that they were going anywhere else.

No one planned for Jeb to be sidelined, but Trump did it anyway.

So Jeb dropped out.

Since he has suspended his campaign, they needed an insider to be a place holder for the delegates and that turns out to be Cruz, who will control those delegates until the Convention, then, after a few slight of hand tricks, they are slated to go back to Jeb, or maybe Mitt.

Cruz will never get to enjoy the delegates at the convention.

Trump is clearly winning the public perception war with ammunition the other candidates give him. Stupid of them, normal for Trump.

I agree with JR;

Cruz has lost it fair and square and should step aside for the sake of the country.
If his continued efforts at thievery split and destroy the party,
we’ll be saddled by Hillary or burned by Bernie.

Cruz lost the primary vote and is now aiding and abetting the enemy (the GOPe)
in their treasonous attempt to deny the nomination to the winner.
Cruz is a sore loser turned traitor against the grassroots voters.
And the foolish neophyte thinks the GOPe is going to let him have a shot at the presidency
if he helps them block Trump?
Laughable if it wasn’t so serious.

Wahhhhh!

Even Drudge is whining and crying because Donald failed to even show up in Colorado?

The damage is done. It will not be undone. Cause and effect. Evidence of zero strategic thinking skills. And because of that there will be more of the same mistakes for Trump to capitalize on. Sad but true.

Trump is a deductive thinker - he begins with the goal and works back from there - no wasted motion - only what contributes to the result.— Bill Mitchell (REAL) (@mitchellvii) March 21, 2016



Guys like Cruz are inductive thinkers. They are so obsessed with the ideological front end, the actual result is an afterthought.— Bill Mitchell (REAL) (@mitchellvii) March 21, 2016

Get a clue. You obviously didn’t “get your mind right”.

Drudge is either willingly ignorant or misleading (lying) on the facts.

In fact every precinct had a vote on Super Tuesday, and ANY Republican could get involved. I tried a drag a few neighbors with me (one supported Trump, one Cruz) and neither showed up.

Plain fact is Cruz won the majority of delegates to the State and CD Conventions, and I’ll tell you something else supposed “straw poll” that no one got to vote on, well if it had been taken (these same caucus goers) would have voted Cruz, because they did so on delegates.

You see, you Cruz people, it is not about Trump or his “whining” or the importance of “the rules.” It is about the fact that the people of Colorado have been disenfranchised and have not been allowed to have a say in who they want to represent them in the convention.

Not in any state, not even in Utah, have all of the Republicans wanted Cruz. (And I am told that in Utah, there was a lot of fraud.)

And that is the problem with all of Cruz’ delegate manipulation. It neutralizes the voice of the people, and that is not what a representative constitutional republic is supposed to be — a govt by the people, of the people, and for the people.

Once again, the message is, Ted Cruz is a fraud!

Got news for both you and Jim: The election isn’t over.

So I’ll respectfully disagree with your opinion, and hope that Trump loses.

Put a sock in it. When the delegates are mainly composed State Party officers, large donors and faithful its a rigged corrupt system.
