Cruz campaign issued a statement saying it will focus on IN, clearing path for Kasich in OR and NM; Kasich campaign agrees. All to stop Trump.

Cruz could win far more delegates in OR and NM than Kasich could have won in IN. So this is Cruz acknowledging how much more important IN is

Edit: Looks like Cruz and Kasich have worked out a plan to block Trump.

‘Desperation time’: Cruz and Kasich have reportedly formed an alliance to defeat Trump

But Ted told Kasich to drop out a while back. Sad!

 

[BugI02]

Yup. I said months ago Kasich was running for VP. He must have received his offer

 

[ArcadiaGP]

Well, he's not entirely wrong.

It's possible. But most likely this is just two people trying to last. Cruz or Kasich can only win on a 2nd vote. If Trump wins outright there won't be one. Probably "desperation" is the best description.

So who thinks Cruz is pulling a fast one on Kasich and has gotten him to agree to leave Indiana and then Cruz won't actually do the same in New Mexico and Oregon?

Lyin' Ted would never do such a thing!

Completely speculation. Although I would think that is within his moral sphere of capacity, he's not stupid. Doing such a thing would do him great political damage. Then again, shutting down the government just to gain conservative cred did him a lot of political damage as well. So who knows?

This Lyin' Ted thing. I mean, honestly, it's not like Trump has a fierce loyalty to the truth himself. Pots and kettles.

heh, yeah.

Really, I just like working in the words "fiercely loyal".

All politicians lie. The Lyin' Ted thing, which Trump accompanies with at his rallies, that Ted holds the bible high, then puts it down and lies. And he has a point. Ted openly prides himself on being evangelical yet pulls sleazy crap a lot in his campaign. Is Trump immune to that? Absolutely not, but he doesn't put himself in a position to be called hypocritical in that aspect.

You're specifically talking about the bible aspect, right? Because if not, I have many questions.

Correct.

So you believed Trump when he raised the Bible high and declared that it was his favorite book?

 

[ArcadiaGP]

THE PLAN IS AFOOT.

"Kasich is asking his supporters in Indiana to vote for Cruz"

Coalition building. If a Cruz/Kasich ticket has more delegates than Trump on the first ballot, but not 1237, would they be entitled to a win?
