But I'm with Crankbait; Drumpf has been such a blessing to Hilliary, it's almost like the Combover talked the matter over with Slick before declaring and got his blessing (he did, FWIW). <br /><br />Regarding the NY primary, it's only winner take all if the winner gets over 50%. Otherwise, it's complicated. So if Combover gets < 50%, the others get some delegates.Bike Bubbahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08193546045614393425noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19838051.post-88603161241612949272016-04-06T16:31:17.457-05:002016-04-06T16:31:17.457-05:00Of the Republican choices, I much prefer a Cruz th...Of the Republican choices, I much prefer a Cruz that seems to be all sharp corners but speaks well, rather than the "yuge" yammering Other that can't keep his trap shut. <br /><br />Face it, the Democrats only stock in trade is to absolutely destroy whatever Republican gets the nod. Better not to give them any more ammunition than necessary and select somebody that could actually be good at the job. jerrye92002https://www.blogger.com/profile/01858692298982859775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19838051.post-16635833283924917612016-04-06T14:00:07.611-05:002016-04-06T14:00:07.611-05:00But she's already practicing her Alabama accen...But she's already practicing her Alabama accent!3john2https://www.blogger.com/profile/05359114327414576258noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19838051.post-6605276889388570622016-04-06T11:01:32.217-05:002016-04-06T11:01:32.217-05:00by the time Hillary and her media buddies are done...<i>by the time Hillary and her media buddies are done with Cruz, he'll may not carry Alabama or Georgia.</i><br /><br />If they can't sell Hillary in Wisconsin, how will they sell her in Alabama?

If Scott Walker can win Wisconsin three times, Cruz will have a chance there in the general, should he get there. Remember who the candidates on the other side are likely to be this time around.<br />Mr. Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13920907647566015611noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19838051.post-60120036081528596302016-04-06T06:12:12.001-05:002016-04-06T06:12:12.001-05:00Oh, Cruz cannot win North of mason-dixon in the ge...Oh, Cruz cannot win North of mason-dixon in the general.
