If Rube pulls out Minnesota the establishment (as well as Dems) is going to be ecstatic. It will be evidence that Trump's appeal is limited outside of the redneck states (though MA might give them pause). On the other hand, it won't be enough to stop Trump and as long as the rest of them stay in, Trump will continue to rack up delegates.

Rubio, on NBC: "If a couple people weren't on the ballot, we would have won Virginia and a couple other states as well."

LOL

Wow. Rubio is just killing Trump in MN. This is a state with pretty sane, centrist voters. If Trump can't beat Rubio and Cruz here, how does he beat Clinton? Rubio is alive!

That is actually true with Virginia. Most people in my neck of the woods were debating between Rubio and Kasich.

Bernie is exceeding expectations tonight.

Is Hillary picking up the anti-Jewish votes the farther south it is?

I mean, how could Hillary possibly win Arkansas?

Yeah, I could have won too if no one else was on the ballots and I chose to run.

Ultimately, he didn't get the votes because people chose someone else. There is a reason people chose someone else...they liked someone else more than him.

Trump did great in the SEC but he might have trouble in the Big 10.

Arlington County, where I live, ran out of GOP ballots due to high voter turnout. Increase of 33% from 2008.

Here's the kicker: Arlington voted for Marco Rubio 49%, John Kasich 22%, and Trump third at 16%.

So yes, GOP turnout is YUUUUGE....to vote against Donald Drumpf.

Which makes this whole "high GOP turnout = victory in November" utterly ludicrous. These Republicans voting against Trump DO NOT like him.
