Well I'm am a "for Trump" but I'm also a realist as "the people" the majority of which will be done by who they choose in this primary process - as I = one vote.

If Trump is not in it then I'll either choose from the remainder (other than Hillary) or vote 3rd party.

What can you say about a state where the majority vote for someone that is a part of this? I have to live among such people.

Yeah,Cruz can afford for 25-40% of Republican voters to stay home in November.Keep telling yourself that......

Those weren't Republican voters. Those were Democrats and Independents voting for Trump in open primaries. Now that we are in closed primaries today, you see Cruz doing much better. It's no coincidence.

Not really, the exit polls in those states also showed Trump winning Republicans.

So you're saying that Cruz can't attract independents or democrats and doesn't want or need Trump voters but he can still win a general election.Of course you've also previously said that the south is full of racists who will never vote for a Cuban so I guess Cruz can write off the south too,but I guess in 'Dexter World' there are enough Republicans,who don't support Trump,for Cruz to coast to victory.Tell me how does a guy who only attracts 'very conservative' Republicans going to get to 270 electoral votes?

Most of what was previously out in Kansas was the 3rd district which is largely mad up of Kansas City and its suburbs. Cruz still won the ddistrict with 41%, ut it does bring his numbers down slightly, same with Trump's. Rubio and Kasich did better in the district than elsewhere in the state

100% in
Cruz 48.2%- 24 delegates likely
Trump 23.3% 9 delegates likey
Rubio 16.7% 6 delegates likely
Kasich 10.7% 1 delegate likely

Looking more and more like Hillary Clinton in 2016 thanks to all the infighting. Thanks GOP, you blew it again!

We "THE PEOPLE" are potentially who'll pay dearly for that scenario, the GOPe couldn't care less as it'll be their crooked politics and their padded $ pockets as usual.
