Seems to me that good strategy for Trump is to let Cruz win Tx. It won't score him much in net delegates, and it keeps him in the race where he will continue to split votes with Rubio.
So is he going to lose Florida to keep Rubio in?

I agree,I don't see Rubio pulling out but if he did I don't see it benefiting Cruz much if at all.
He likely won't. The entire premise of all them hanging in is to beat Trump no matter what. Trump will most likely do well, but not likely well enough to justify either of them dropping out. The next argument will be that they will pretty much cede everything to Trump until the Winner take all contests come up. I think the only way they would drop out if if Trump swept every state on Tuesday. Then again Rubio might over perform as well. This has been a very strange election. I think at any rate the Republicans have backed themselves into a corner.

That's what I'm thinking also. As long as Cruz & Rubio are both in the race splitting those voters, Trump is going to win. If either Rubio or Cruz drops out, I don't think Trump can win it.

That might of been the case before Super Tuesday. It's going to be very hard to argue that you can beat Trump if you have only won 0-3 primaries out of 16 though. If they don't do very well tomorrow then I imagine it won't matter if either of them drop out by that point.
Cruz will likely pull off a narrow TX win, but it won't give him many more delegates than Trump will win here. Overall, Trump will bury both Cruz and Rubio tomorrow. Then the Pub primary season will be settled.
Stick a fork in Cruz.
He's done.
Rubio?
He's roasted.
But both of those boys have cushy positions awaiting them as right wing talking heads. More money without the hassle of public service.
In some of the more recent polls Trump is inching closer to Cruz in Texas. It could be a very close race.
