The Republican Primary Race Is Filling Up

[GodFearinGunTotin]

In a non-authoritative post on FB just now the estimated delegate count at the end of tonight will be:

Trump 600
Cruz 200
Rubio 50-60

 

[Tombs]

Delegate count so far.

How is he not already dead in the water?

To quote my more famous and better looking colleague, follow the (establishment) money

 

[ArcadiaGP]

Someone sent me a picture of Chris Christie after he introduced "Mr. Trump" tonight. Not sure how accurate it is.

 

[BugI02]

Like....





Not sure if srs.... or THAT bad at reading comprehension.
So, besides having an issue with the difference between singular and plural, there's that too. Take your hypocrisy over to kid's Thanksgiving table. They'll be much more likely buy what your selling. Me, I know a con job when I see it.

Dude, circling dogfight. Might want to try a split s

 

[BugI02]

I think I read that Rubio is underperforming by only 5% to Cruz's 10%

Well, that's reassuring

 

[Kutnupe14]

Has anybody, from either party, ever overcome such a deficit to win the nomination ?

It's not a dogfight when one is a bi-Fokker, and the other a F-35.

Cruz is the only person with a shot to beat Trump. Rubio and Carson would have to dropout for that to happen. If they stay in it seals it up for Trump.

Trump is going to win the nomination, despite a serious concerted effort to derail him.

 

[ArcadiaGP]

Hard truth: Cruz backed by Rubio still might not be enough to stop Trump. If we want to deny Trump 1237, maybe all should stay in.

"I'm going to get Apple to start making their computers and iPhones on our land and not in China. "

This is asinine.

Edit: Carson says he's staying in... and says he wants to meet with the other candidates ahead of the next debate to discuss "civility".

GFY Carson.

A Trump presidency would see Apple nationalized hah get those phones made in America and put backdoors in all of them.

Much as I like Cruz, the Establishment hates him more than Trump. He'd have no chance. Even if he could pull something off, they'd probably run ads against him, too. In a parallel universe, if Cruz were the nominee, I wouldn't be surprised if some Republicans in swing states might turn Independent to disassociate.

The Empty Suit Rubio has picked up a handful of delegates, and may eke out his first win, in Minnesota. He thinks that will be the path to victory.

He was smoking something REALLY good when he gave his speech tonight.

"I'm going to get Apple to start making their computers and iPhones on our land and not in China. "

Why doesn't he start with getting Trump clothing made in the US.

Starting to think the larger strategy is convention.

Trump will not get 1,237 delegates. Rubio, Cruz, Kasich aren't getting out. This will be fought on the floor.

I think they know Trump just can't happen, and they'll stick around to make sure it doesn't.

Yepper. The Nominee, VP, some Cabinet spots (and probably even a few Ambassadorships) will all get decided in the space of about 4 hours. We will know the result when we read it on Drudge at 10 AM the next morning.

Unclear... you mean the voter that seems to have some standards and values as to what a Presidential candidate should be?

Yes, those self-delusional voters. Clear as Swarovski.

[MisterChester]

Watching Cruz talk is as draining as carrying an anchor. At least with Trump I feel the enthusiasm.

 

[ArcadiaGP]

Rubio just now: "We're going to stay in the race as long as we need to make sure Trump doesn't get 1,237 delegates."
