The conservative grass roots base is already making up some of the delegates Ted will lose in N.Y.

I'm thinking Trumpman is gonna need some more GOPe/Rino/Hack delegate hunting guys.

Some that actually have a clue.

Just sayin’

Jedi.

Laughable, little Marco will endorse the leader TRump, he’s no dummy, why team with the loser, Cruz. And when I say loser I mean that in every way, but especially in numbers of enthusiastic voters. 1,000,000 more in Fl and Oh alone.

RE: Laughable, little Marco will endorse the leader TRump

This little tidbit shows something different though:

SOURCE: http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/marco-rubio-sort-endorses-ted-cruz-shuts-vp/story?id=38355937

Florida Sen. Marco Rubio Tuesday endorsed Texas senator and Republican presidential candidate Ted Cruz for president, sort of.

In one of his first interviews since dropping out of the presidential race, Rubio sat down with conservative host Mark Levin for a video podcast to discuss a wide range of issues, including who he believes should be president.

“I hope that they’ll nominate a conservative,” Rubio said. “The only one [presidential candidate] that fits that criteria is Ted Cruz.”

Only if Trump gets 1237 delegates. Whether he will or not remains to be seen.

Mr. Cruz is bragging about his gaining Mr. Trump’s delegates by gaming the system.

What better words would describe the intent of the above statement?

How about......

Cruz is Alone. In Bad Company!

Only a scumbucket like Cruz would try to deprive Donald of those delegates.

Only if the delegates were pledged or obligated to vote for Trump in the first place.

The Wisconsin Democrats knew their mark when they put Cruz, the Unipatsy, over the top last week. :)

Chump supporters suffer from common core math and don’t know the difference between plurality and majority.

Here is the thing, there will be no 2nd or 3rd ballot

The RNC is scared now, they just saw the backlash of what they did in Colorado, Colorado was a testing ground to see if they could steal an election and get away with it.

The result was not good. You have to remember, stopping Trump will cost these people the party, what good is a party with no voters? Can’t win an election without voters.

That becomes a major problem

As in a party-killing major problem. :)
