Sadly, for the die-hard leftist, as well as the politically ignorant, they need to feel the pain yourself because empathy is not a strong suit, as much as they talk about sympathy and caring for others. The only way you can convince a die-hard commie that they're wrong is for them to feel communism, good and hard. If they survive that, they'll convert.
Case in point: A great uncle of mine left Spain to avoid fighting family in the Spanish Civil War. He was a supporter of Castro... until his business was taken from him. If that wasn't enough, while taking care of certain things in the US, his wife gave him a coded message in a phone conversation telling him to not come home: the government was waiting for his return to arrest him.

That last word in your question is the most important. Those in denial about the nature of these attacks stumble when you ask what the political objective is of the terrorists. They just cannot admit that the religion itself drives these people, not any kind of coherent grievance structure.
The IRA wanted the British out of Northern Ireland, the Basques and Kurds want a homeland, hell even Hamas can stitch together a list of demands. These guys? They just blow stuff up because their book tells them to.

Checking in with MSNBC to see what the brain dead have to say about the latest terror attack by yutes of unknown background.
1) Cruz is as batshit crazy as Trump for wanting a tough crack down on Muslims. Playing right into ISIS' hands don't you know.
2) It is Europe's fault for Muslims not integrating into European society and not the fault of Muslims at all.

Yeah, and no lectures from CAIR or Obama yet (that I've seen).
Obama had that one lame line about how "we all must unite to blah blah blah" but he didn't even bother with his usual defense of Islam. His whole 51 second statement about it was phoned in.
Guess everyone is getting sick of the choreographed routine that follows a Muslim attack. Though I suspect we'll be getting a lecture from Imam Kerry when he gets home....

True Story: In '92 I was on active duty stationed in Germany. We took an official group trip into Hungary (this was shortly after the Wall came down). At the resort (well actually former military rest camp) where we stayed one of my friends actually got a sizeable splinter in his butt from the wooden toilet seat in his room. Luxury in the former Soviet Bloc.

We were a group of medical personnel (in uniform) and went to a joint military medical conference at Lake Balaton. There were a number of Hungarian army docs who had been involved in Desert Storm- made some connections apparently. Probably the first sizable contingent of Americans to visit Hungary. Two double decker tour buses with full police escort screaming down the road through the Hungarian countryside from the Austrian border, farm carts strewn into the roadside ditches on both sides in our wake. It was quite a scene.

You can make bombs out of a lot of things. I suspect that in your house you have several molotov cocktail bomb casings filled with wine to deceive the authorities as well as the dangerous molotov cocktail filler concealed in your car and a fuse for the bomb disguised as sheets on your bed.

Just because he says "the European Union is under terrible stress because of all those migrants that are coming there" the Weekly Standard assumes that it means that it means Bill is not on board with "a global effort to help the migrants."
Are these guy intentionally obtuse - to make a story to write about - or just stupid?
A conservative see you say that something is causing a problem and assumes that means that you are AGAINST it, but liberals don't care about THAT kind of problem solving. Bill is saying that THE PROBLEM is that it is moving Europeans away from the liberals!! He couldn't care less about how it's destroying Europe. They're completely onthe "same page".

There is no way for Cruz to garner enough delegates to stop Trump from winning outright. It would require fantastical assumptions (like Cruz winning all of Oregon and Washington, etc.)
Posted by: Make America Great Again at March 23, 2016 08:31 AM (LXJ1e)
Cruz still has a path, one of two ways: defeat Trump outright by garnering the requisite 1237 committed delegates or--failing that--prevent Trump from attaining that number, force a contested convention, and then win those delegates in one or more floor votes. Delegates for Bush, Rubio, et al are more likely, in my view, to break for Cruz in such a situation.
Of course, the increasingly desperate GOP Establishment could alwaysattempt to repudiate both Trump and Cruz and force their candidate--Ryan or Kasich or Romney or Bush--and effectivelyblow upthe Republican Party in a dramatic, bloody act of politicalmurder-suicide. Wouldn't put it past them.

Trump will win at least 1400 delegates.
Trump only needs to win 187 delegates to deny Cruz any chance of an outright win. It is fantasy to think Trump cannot win 187 more delegates.
So that means Cruz's play is to deny Trump the 1237. However, to do that Cruz is relying on equally fantastical assumptions (like he is going to win all of Oregon, Washington, half of NY and California).

Lasharie rose to fame by competing on the TV show Big Brother in 2009, though she was kicked out within the first few days. She later turned her hand to politics and won a seat on the Kensington and Chelsea Council in May 2014.
The party suspended her last October, after her numerous anti-Semitic tweets came to light. On one occasion, she shared a video entitled ISIS: Israeli Secret Intelligence Service and added the comment comment: Many people know about who was behind 9/11 and also who is behind ISIS. Ive nothing against Jews just sharing it!
When faced with criticism, she tweeted: My childrens great grandfather was fully Jewish and had family members and businesses bombed by Nazis. Im married to a white man, racist? She also claimed that there is nothing wrong with demonizing Zionists because Jews are not zionists, lets get that Straight.
A spokesperson for Kensington Labour told Guido Fawkes that Lasharie was reinstated in December, without explaining why.

It's, what, 80+% of Nevada? I'm not kidding about that number.
I've been waiting for the water wars to start up again between the states out there and I'm not really using war euphemistically. Hopefully, the rain and snow from El Nino will replenish but still. I sort of recall how bad it was in the late 70s and early 80s and the load is up a couple of magnitudes since then.
Oh speaking of east of the Mississippi, apparently Denver is getting a foot of snow but who cares about that, right?

I've been waiting for the water wars to start up again between the

Hopefully, the rain and snow from El Nino will replenish but still. I
sort of recall how bad it was in the late 70s and early 80s and the load
is up a couple of magnitudes since then.
Oh speaking of east of the Mississippi, apparently Denver is getting a foot of snow but who cares about that, right?

Lou Dobbs is very good at those issues. The thing that truly bothers me with the land issue is who are those senators representing? Since the Feds own the land, does the Fed get extra consideration and votes at the expense of the people living there.

The first security checkpoint is actually on the road to the airport, where security personnel check travelers and the people bringing them. There is then another layer of security to physically get into the departures hall, where passengers who arouse suspicion are checked.
In Europe by contrast, anyone who wants to go into a departures hall can, and can even bring in luggage. The first security check only happens after checking into the flight, and after the passengers' luggage is already tagged.

People need to remember that it's not just the candidate. Only a small elite have enough juice to make homes for their extended staff when things go south.
Jeb!'s people didn't have to worry. The RNC, think tanks, foundations and private industry immediately took care of everyone who quit their day jobs and worked in Jeb's inner circle. Probably about 400 total.
On the other end of the scale, the people who dropped everything in their lives and signed on with Ben Carson had nowhere to go - hence the Trump endorsement. By endorsing, the person endorsed agrees to take care of the endorser's key people, along with finding an appropriate spot in the administration for them.
The problem is compounded by poor candidates, of which Marco Rubio is one. His people were on the fringe of the GOPe and had no guarantees, as some factions were telling him to drop out and others were strategizing that it was better for him to stay in. Only he knows what deals were made then.
But now, Rubio needs to reevaluate.
He's smart enough to count. He knows any endorsement power he has reduces as time goes on. If he did have a deal with the GOPe to take care of his people, it was probably a reduced number - so the drivers and coffee fetchers who would have been Assistant Under Secretaries of Commerce are now under a bridge, keeping warm with a fire barrel.
Trump can offer him Sec. of Defense or some other position that will add height and gravitas to his resume. Plus, all his people will be safe and warm.
Sure, the GOPe is promising the same thing, but Marco has seen how they lie up close and personal.
Time for him to choose.

According to the report, due to heightened security concerns, police have requested that the Jewish community avoid wearing masks that cover the face in public on Purim and requested that no toy weapons be carried even by children. Additionally, the police requested that no fireworks be set off and to avoid using any device that may cause a loud banging sound.

The whole point of a contested convention, at least as far as the 'Establishment"is concerned, is to pick another squish. If it goes to a contested convention, I am not sure why you would think they pick Cruz. The ONLY reason they are pushing and supporting Cruz now is stop Trump.

I once got stuck in a traffic-jam-from-hell (bad accident with a couple of semis) on the 101 between Ventura and Santa Barbara where there's no off ramps and the freeway butts up against the sea on one side and the mountains on the other. No way to get off the highway, even with a 4x4, so everyone was stuck..... for about 3 hours.
About 2 hours in, these college girls got out of their car and started walking up and down the freeway selling Budweisers to anyone who was thirsty. Funny as hell.

Does he really have to choose? His best option may be to do nothing. He can say, the people should decide.
I can see why Rubio is doing nothing at this point. He may want to stop Trump, but he may not want to elevate his chief rival.
I certainly don't think he'll take a position in the Trump administration (if it happens) and probably not the Cruz administration (if it happens). Not really sure how that helps him - or either of those potential presidents.
Right now, Rubio doesn't have much to offer. His best play may be to simply lay low and hopefully (for his sake) live to fight another day. 2016 was simply not a good year for him. Future years may be more favorable.

Sure, Marco can lay low and find something to do for 4 or 8 years, but a lot of people gave up their careers when they signed onboard the Rubio Express. If he doesn't care about them, he can sit back and watch.
However, I think Rubio is more ambitious than that. He'll want to be somewhere in the action.
His only problem is figuring out if Trump will get the 1237. If he waits to endorse until after it's crystal clear Trump will get the delegates, his endorsement is worth a lot less.
No safe way to play it. I believe he needs to endorse before Wisconsin.

I don't know. I agree he is ambitions, but his ambition is beyond being a minor player in the Trump administration. We'll see. Right now he doesn't have much to offer anyone. I suppose he may at the convention.
If I were advising him, I would advise him to get out of the public eye after this election and either go private sector or a conservative think tank. But the risk is that you never find yourself back in the public eye.

He has 168 delegates.
With Kasich still shouldering, that may be enough for a good deal from Trump.
I don't know that it's enough for a deal with Cruz since no deal gets fulfilled if the candidate doesn't get the WH.

Trump / Cruz looked like a good idea a couple months ago, since they actually agree on a lot of stuff, far more than Trump and most Republicans.
But Cruz has become the face of anti-Trump and Trump has brought up all the natural born citizen issue (which seems to be a complete coin flip), so that most obvious choice seems impossible now.

Watched the CNN documentary on the Lincoln/Douglas debates and subsequent Republican convention.
Despite Lincoln sending a message to his campaign staff saying that he would not approve any promised cabinet positions, etc. in exchange for delegate votes, they did it anyway, which is how Lincoln ended up getting the amount of delegates he needed.
The descriptions and deeds of each campaign's managers are really eyebrow raising, even by today's standards.
And yes, first New York, then Ohio (who switched at the last minute)put him over the top. Contested/brokered conventions are not a new thing. And they weren't always a bad thing.
By the way, at Lincoln's inauguration, Douglas graciously held Lincoln's stovepipe hat when he had to remove it due to the wind.....

According to legal experts on Fox....Hillary can be indicted and still be eligible for the presidency. She can be convicted and still be eligible to be president. The only way she could be removed once she is elected is through impeachment.

Since being elected, he's done little except shoot himself in the foot. And I'm not just talking about going full-bore on amnesty, he announced he was on board with that stupid legislation, I forget what it's called, that basically sanctifies those faux rape kollege kangaroo courts based on Title IX.

This is so true.
National polls this early are worthless. Trump or even Cruz (who has no chance of getting the nomination) can pivot at this point before the General and make the narrative anything they want.
Trump has done a good job of controlling the press and news cycle. He will only get better. With the right VP pick and a little less off-the-cuff speech, he could easily take 40 plus states.

"Looking around at what's taking place in politics today, it is easy to get disheartened," Ryan says in excerpts released by his office ahead of a Wednesday speech. "How many of you find yourself just shaking your head at what you see from both sides?"
Ryan said that while skepticism is beneficial, "When people distrust politics, they come to distrust institutions. They lose faith in their government, and the future, too. We can acknowledge this. But we can't accept it. And we can't enable it either."
"Instead of talking about what politics is today, I want to talk about what politics can be. I want to talk about what our country can be, "he said.
They have literally done nothing in the last fifteen years that would engender faith or respect in the system or the process.
The GOP is useless pile of junk. Paul Ryan and the GOP need to be destroyed.

Delegates are sent by their state. I doubt that every delegate has some grand ambition to become an Republican adminstrator or insider. So, trying to get enough delegates to totally trash their state's vote by it's constituents to bring in people who were not even on the ballot is going to be a tall order.

"Well, number one, I'd create economic zones. I'd create incentives for companies to move in. I'd work on spirit because the spirit is so low, it's incredible, the unemployment, you look at unemployment for black youth in this country, African American youth, is 58-59 percent. It's unthinkable. Unemployment for African Americans -- not youth, but African Americans -- is very high."
That level of black unemployment is great news for Hillary, who has every incentive to keep it that way.

With Kasich still shouldering, that may be enough for a good deal from Trump.

So does Rubio think Trump will win the WHis the main question.

There is no historicalprecedent for a floor-drafted candidate at a Republican convention. Of the nominees in the two contested GOP conventions I know about, Lincoln and Dewey, both were active candidates coming into the convention; that is, both were actively running for President.
Romney was running his mouth because Trump has him flustered, simple as that. Perhaps Romney's shocked there is a Republican out there even more liberal than he is.

It is unknown both if the South would have seceded, and even if they
had, would the North have tried to reinforce Ft. Sumter, if Douglas had
been President.
It could be said that the brokered convention led to the largest blood letting in US History. (DonQ)
======================
The 1860 general election was a smashup, with four major parties and their respective candidates in the mix.
From memory:
1) Republican (Lincoln)
2) Democrat (Douglas)
3) Southern Democrat (Breckinridge)
4) Constitution (Bell)
Douglas was an ardent Unionist. Breckinridge, a senator from Kentucky, later broke with his state and took a commission as a brigadier general in the Confederate Army. Bell, I think, was from Indiana. Lincoln didn't get a single -popular- vote in several Southern states (his name wasn't on the ballots) and Breckinridge swamped Douglas in the Deep South. Douglas didn't have a chance, but after Lincoln's inauguration he campaigned vigorously for the war effort.

Ted Cruz is dismissing GOP presidential front-runner Donald Trump's win in Arizona, stating, "A lot of the results were baked in the cake."
"The momentum is with us," Cruz said early Wednesday on CNN's "New Day," touting his new endorsement from former presidential candidate Jeb Bush, along with figures such as Mitt Romney and conservative radio host Mark Levin.
Then the hosts of the show just stared -- silently, sadly -- at Mr. Cruz.

And you may well be right. it is plausible.
However,
We've seen in recent years that the prospects of crossover voting have worsened, not improved. Obama succeeded in 2012 because he appeased his base, and targeted it well. he also used his inherent advantage with the MFM.
We will certainly have one of those factors against ANY candidate we nominate. Punching the base in the junk can't help.

If he has a friend, Cruz needs him to do an intervention: "Ted you know I love you, but if you don't stop you'll become ... a Rick Santorum!"
Cruz has no chance to get to 1237. If he thinks that he'll get the nomination in a brokered convention he's deluded. So he's Romney's catspaw. Has Romney promised Ted the VP slot?
If Cruz persists into June, Trump is still likely to get to 1237. Cruz will have created a lot of ill will by doing so, and possibly ruined his future.

But Heidi is also a policy wonk that was as deep in the Bush administration as Ted. She added to a paper from her Goldman Sachs/CFR position, on the advantages of opening Mexico/Canada/US the same way the EU is open, for the sake of economic advantages.
"Free Trade" is indeed an advantage to the "global oligarchs", and that profit may or may not trickle down to the commoners in their respective countries. Mercantilism (putting country first), NOT free trade (raw global "capitalism") is what has empowered some nations to grow strongest. That is the history of our nation, till WW2 when we wiped out foreign competition and had the Marshall Plan, after which we got the Ted Kennedy third world immigration law, and 50 years of change to our culture. Trade deficits have grown ever since, except a brief slowing during Reagan.
Anyway, Ted would probably give us "operational control" of the border which would help a lot, but he is still a squish on TPP, and his policy wonk wife has also advocated for an open border (for trade) policy. TPP allows sovereignty to be given away.
Ted does have his flat tax plan, which would include a 10% flat tax on imports, and exports would not be taxed. That seems helpful to trade, but the odds of passing such major tax reform do not seem good. And it is likely not enough on trade, since that ax is also imposed domestically.
In any case, Ted grew up in the house of GS and Bush, and is not the "outsider" most think, despite the establishment dislike he has engendered. Trump is still the "America First" guy versus the globalists. imo But Cruz is still my second choice.

I disagree with your characterization, but Trump is for cutting taxes, pro-2nd Amendment, opposes amnesty, for tougher border control, and has already named several conservative justices that he would name for the Supreme Court.
Is he a doctrinaire conservative in the mold of Reagan? No, but I can live with that.
he's center-right, and I would argue the issues Trump is strong on, are far more important to the nation's future.
According to your checklist, Jeb or Kasich would be ideal Republicans. You really think that means they are conservative? Both would cut an amnesty deal ASAP and the things we have the luxury of arguing about will be meaningless.

Trump has already taken certain positions which will help him in the general, some defensively. Saying you'll shut down PP entirely will draw War on Womyn. Saying you'll repeal ObamaCare without saying that you won't let people die in the streets, is only asking for the Left to say that you'll let people die in the streets. Saying you're going to tinker with SocSec (which is politically a non-starter right now) is just asking for the same beating Ryan got from Biden. Just win, baby!

It was a three-man race, and Ohio Gov. John Kasich came in fourth. Florida Sen. Marco Rubio had a stronger showing in the Arizona Republican primary than Kasich -- despite the fact that the Florida senator dropped out of the race last week. Rubio beat Kasich by nearly 18,000 votes.
The reason: Arizona allows early voting by mail in the Republican presidential primary, and thousands of Arizona voters likely cast their ballots before Rubio dropped out.

Whatever his faults, I don't recall Romney singing Planned Parenthood's praises and I do recall that Romney's immigration plan was certainly more stringent than Rubio's incremental amnesty plan, which your guy Trump espoused as a 'good start'.
Strict immigration is your make-or-break issue, right? The issue around which all Trump supporters coalesce? So when Trump folded on that key, centerpiece issue during the debates, did all of yousuffer a sudden cognitive dissonance as your mind tried to reconcile the bullshit you've been buying with the entirely new and different bullshit he's telling you now?

So.... According to the *new* rules of unsolicited support (CoughDavidDukeCough).... Cruz should be receiving demands to denounce that sort of thing .... right?

get back door approval before "going there" with that wonderful and
tasteful picture of Melania.
It wasn't even news. That picture started floating around on the intertubes last fall when it became obvious Trump was going to hang around for a while.
It might be the thing I like most about Trump.

People are citing polls there as if it's a nationwide trend.
Mormons have a very odd conservative ideology that is mainly rooted in Social Conservatism. And they are also very open borders, they look at it as a recruiting tool.
So here's Trump that wants to build a wall and owns casinos. Basically the opposite of Mormon-style conservatism.
Utah though will go Trump by 15 plus points easy in a General election, even without Glenn Becks support.

Totally agree.Time to turn that frown upside down. And I'm being serious. Things are what they are. I'm not going to let this crap consume my life, but I'm not combative by nature, like most of us. Not that it matters, but I voted Cruz, my wife voted Trump. My friends are split on the matter too. I would never use invective on any of them for their choices.
That would be a lousy thing to do.
Declare peace, and move on. This is NOT aimed at you, by the way.
Posted by: kraken at March 23, 2016 11:29 AM (sdxPm)
Cruz was polling at 51% and got what? 75%?
I wonder if Mormons actually believe Beck's claims that Cruz is a messenger of God, or whatever. What will they do in the name of God? Is ballot box stuffing as good as parting the sea? ha

Straw man counterargument bordering on non sequitur.
I ask again: since Trump is now for Rubio's incremental amnesty plan, does that mean that immigration--the key issue around which all Trump supporters have claimed is the ONLY issue for the sake of the country and western civilization--doesn't matter now because your leader walked back his earlier hardliner position?
Does this not strike you as unprincipled? Most importantly, does it matter to you that your favored candidate is an unprincipled opportunist? And if it doesn't matter, what the hell is wrong with you, anyway?

The Melina ads were run -- in the "putting them up on the internet" sense, by Make America Awesome, a registered PAC:
http://tinyurl.com/zb4c58j
MAA is run by crazed kitty boiler Liz "the Wiz" Mair, later of the Walker campaign and points left.
No donors have been disclosed, due to either report timing or they are below the disclosure limit. But they've expended a reported less than $19k to date, so low tier amateur hour.
What they are is basically Liz's instagram account and online CV, designed solely to troll and get her media attention and a job.

Not really the point. Hillary has been beating Trump consistently in poll after poll.
Now I know that a lot of Trump supporters don't like polls that don't show him winning but it isn't just Utah thats swinging the polls toward Hillary.
Posted by: JackStraw
it IS the point considering you were trying to make some bank shot off of "Trump not doing well in Utah means he loses everywhere"
But if you're going to cite national polls Bernie Sanders beats Ted Cruz by 17 points in a CNN poll.
And the last head to head poll I saw with Cruz vs Hillary has Cruz losing.
So you'll still be doing hand wringing even if Trump dropped dead tomorrow if you live and die by polls.

But this is with $200M RINO money saturating media with #never Trump hate ads. When that dies down in a month, the polls will naturally revert to the norm (whatever that is). All the (largely dishonest) hate ads certainly have a (short term) effect.
But The View and Piers have both been out after the Brussels attack and said Trump makes sense, on being more harsh on interrogation, when used on known murderers, when it might save 100s of innocents from terrible torturous death or injury.
Trump is still fighting RINOs and globalists on the right ... in an establishment war against the voter's choice like we've never seen before. When they drop the third party run, and even more establishment guys get on the Trump train, Trump will pull ahead. The hate from the right will help him win the middle.

This is some of the most delusional political analysis I have ever heard perpetrated by people who just can't understand how their favorite True Conservative got hammered by weak old Mitt.
By the way, it was Newt's team that bought that liberal produced hit piece on Romney that morphed into Romney the Cancer Man. It was Perry who was going after Romney as the Vulture Capitalist proving that not only could he not count to 3 he has no idea how Bain actually operates. It wasn't that they didn't attack, it was just that they sucked at it.

A lot of Democrats do not want Hillary. Kasich has not been under much scrutiny, yet. Folks who do know who he is probably have warm fuzzies about his time in Congress. So I can believe that polling.

_____
Polls have said 90% of Democrats will vote Hillary, if she's the nominee. That has stayed consistent over the past year. The myth of the PUMA is alive and well in 2016, but, like 2012, is a myth. Democrats will vote for the "D".
So what this poll is saying not only will a significant slice of Dems vote Kasich over Hillary, but Kasich will wipe the floor with her with Independents.
And if you believe that, I have a nice bridge for sale in New York.

Broadcasting their atrocities serves several purposes:

2) Terrorize their potential victims

I think maybe the Big Ewok is unhappy that he can't convince everyone that they should support Cruz over Trump, so then the Trump people get mad at at the Trump-bashing posts and things just escalate.
less Trump bashing is probably the way to avoid these flame wars.
in fact the only way to defeat the GOPe is if Trump and Cruz supporters work together to thwart the GOPe at the Convention, because that is their plan, to just let whatever happens happen until the Convention and then install their own hand-picked stooge at that point.
to stop them from doing that Trump and Cruz supporters will HAVE to work together or both lose.

It's also normally reliable Republican voters answering with "Hillary" because they hate Trump with the heat of a thousand sun and many are right now wed to the idea of "anybody but Trump"
It only takes about 3% of Republicans to answer that way and you get a hugely lopsided poll result that seems to look bleak.
Does it hold? I don't think it does. I remember telling myself I would vote 3rd party if McCain was the nominee in 2008 but I came around pretty quickly.

all, the president indicated, more Americans are killed each year
slipping in bathtubs or running into deer with their cars than by any
terrorists, so we need to stop wanting to invade the Middle East in
response to every threat.That
all sounds great on paper, until a terrorist attack like the one
Tuesday in Brussels comes to our shores. Does the president have this
right?
Didn't sound great to me - sounded like something a stupid f'ing progressive would say to avoid having to admit we are at war. But I'm not a NYT columnist, so...

No, my argument was/is that since Trump supporters claimed immigration! was the key issue and since Trump himself has walked back his position to the point where he's agreeing with Rubio on Rubio's incremental amnesty approach, then those Trump supporters who claimed to back him because of his hardlineposition on illegal immigration must either (a) stop supporting him because they are principled and he is not, or (b) continue to support him because neither he nor they really give a shit about principles.

If the positions were reversed, I'd be calling for Trump to drop out.
Go look at the upcoming primaries yourself, tell me were Cruz is going to find 461 delegates to deny Trump a win.
Up till this point the map has been VERY favorable to Cruz and he still lost. Cruz has won only one state with more than 4 million residents (his home state Texas). His vaunted ground game is geared to flipping small states with many "very conservative" voters. Those are almost all gone.
If it weren't for Texas, Cruz wouldn't be cracking 400 delegates right now.

I wouldn't have a problem with Cruz staying in if there was reasonable path for him to still win.
What I find disgusting is the idea of Cruz knowing he can't possibly win but actively trying to get to a contested convention. I guarantee you Cruz understands he can no longer win outright.
And then we get some Paul Ryan/Mitt Romney shit sandwich at a convention which guarantees Hillary 40 states.

Not according to what I can see. The Real Clear Politics tally has Trump with 739 delegates, and 876 left to be decided. He needs an additional 498 delegates to be nominated, or about 57% of the remainder. To stop him, Cruz needs to win 379 delegates, or 43.3%.
Doesn't seem impossible to me. If you are getting your numbers from somewhere else, I'd like to know where that is so that I can compare and contrast.

back his earlier hardliner position?

If I remember the comic...excuse me!, graphic novel that this idea was taken from-
Batman hit Superman with some Kryptonite gas(or some such thing) that evened the odds.
So, basically, Batman poisoned Superman then kicked his ass.
That being said...I'll go this weekend.
Snyder can be great i.e.. 300
but he can also suck donkey doodles i.e.. Sucker Punch.
You never know which one you're going to get.

I could understand people supporting Ted Cruz as
a conservative, but I never really understood the idea that he was
going to win. It seemed more about making a statement than anything.
Rubio at least made more sense in that regard as I could see him
narrowly picking up the purple states we lost last time around but still
had a conservative record that was to the right of Romney and McCain.

That is the very same logic that got us McCain and Romney who where oh so electable until they weren't, ya know, actually elected.

Likewise, there is no reason to believe that a so-called "less electable" alternative would have done as well or better in the general election.

I think maybe the Big Ewok is unhappy that he can't convince everyone that they should support Cruz over Trump, so then the Trump people get mad at at the Trump-bashing posts and things just escalate.
less Trump bashing is probably the way to avoid these flame wars.

The solution isn't for Ace to censor content on his own blog. The solution is for people to learn to argue without resorting to slurs, F-bombs, and personal attacks.
We've had relative newbies swaggering around threads insulting ace, the cobloggers, and long-time regulars. We've also had some long-timers decide to let their freak flags fly, which is sad to see.
If you can't take criticism of your candidate, start your own blog or go elsewhere. Or just learn to exercise some self-restraint and develop some fact-based arguments to support your guy.

I will take my chances with an actual conservative.

And the best way to avoid jihadi violence is to never say anything that disrepects the prophet. Right? No, screw that. Trump is a vulgar con man, and should be called out for it. If someone wants to take that PERSONALLY, that's THEIR problem, not my problem. The best way to avoid flame wars is to not flame people.
It is really really simple.

I agree.

Well, this position is quite consistent with Donald Trump's views on Pam Gellar's "Draw Muhammad" contests. So that's something. /s

Belgians, at least real ones, aren't muslims. Turk are muslims. And Turkey has been playing a double game with ISIS, so if they got their fingers burned, tough shit.

RTFM, the koran and get back to me on that.

Doesn't seem impossible to me. If you are getting your numbers from somewhere else, I'd like to know where that is so that I can compare and contrast.

-------------------------------
1513 delegates have been allocated. There are 959 delegates left. He needs 498 more delegates to win outright. Or to put it another way the rest of the candidates need to get 461 delegates to keep Trump from winning out right.
959 - 498 = 461
Maybe there are some other delegates (super delegates?) not accounted for. I'm looking at the RCP delegate count page.
However, even under your determination of 379, given the remaining states, it is a certainty that Cruz will not win enough. Most of the big winner take all favor Trump and the proportional ones too.

I work with lots of Muslims. Nice people. I discuss politics and religion with some of them: they really don't like violent jihad or any violence justifued by religion at all. Sorry, the whole "You Muslim = Want To Kill Me" is simply factually wrong. Untrue. Not instantiated in reality. False. Contradicted by empirical fact. That's it.
Doesn't mean I like Islam much. Normative Islam is pretty toxic to atheism, and I feel deeply sorry for atheists in traditional Muslim societies. Those guys have it pretty rough.
