The Super Tuesday election results are in. Trump didn’t take them all. Should Kasich and Carson should quit embarrassing themselves and drop out? Or are they perhaps being told to stay in by the GOPe in an effort to ensure Trump doesn’t get enough delegates so they can have a brokered convention?

To update the picture, Cruz won Alaska, too. So seven wins to three, Trump over Cruz, but let's not forget that Texas dwarfs all the others in size so when you look at the delegate count, Cruz isn't that far behind. Trump has 316, Cruz has 226. (Nobody else has even half what Cruz has, not even Rubio.) This is a horse race between two horses, and I don't know why the media keeps portraying this thing as a Trump landslide. More and more reports are surfacing about Trump's lies and liberalism, to say nothing of his overall hucksterism and lack of character, and if Rubio and those other clowns would just exit stage right and stop splitting the non-Trump vote, Cruz would kill Trump.
Rubio won't do that, even if he wanted to. The RNC would destroy his chances of ever running for office again. They want to push him on, no matter what.
Lindsey Graham's comment makes me hope the establishment is finally beginning to realize how horrible life would be with Trump in the White House.
Thursday's debate is definitely "Must See TV"
I would have been shocked if Cruz didn't take TX... Uhm... yeah Carson and Kasich should stop and in truth so should Rubio OR Cruz.... One them needs to be humble and say: "I'm done for the sake of the party" or something and then let it be a two man thing. The fraction is an issue...
Here's hoping Rubio calls it quits and throws in behind Cruz. If he does it would be a landslide against Trump.
If not, well, maybe the Secret Service should start reading up on the history of the Roman Emperor's guards...
Add up votes and Trump still beats them. So no. And the insanity of advocating assassination? WOW!
And here's a link to an article that says the vote totals from Super Tuesday were even closer than that delegate totals:

I don't know where you're getting your information, but Trump has won a bunch of close battles that would have gone the other way if the clingers would all exit the race, while Cruz positively demolished everybody in the largest state.
What are you talking about? Cruz has 226 delegates so far and Rubio has 110. That adds up to more than Trump without even adding Kasich and Carson.
This ^^ got 5 thumbs up. Murder if you cant win. Way to go Cruz guys, try again telling us how you're so much above Trumps antics.
Sheesh
Kasich and Carson should have dropped out when Bush did. If that clown could see the writing on the wall after all the $$ he spent, these two should as well. At this point they're just making fools of themselves.
The establishment RINOs are probably sweating bullets because they don't want Trump or Cruz and it's kind of ironic that they'll end up pushing for the lesser of the two evils in Cruz, just like citizens have been doing for decades now.
It's weird. Kasich thinks he can win his own state of Ohio of course, but he seems to think he can win Michigan, too. WTF? Being the governor of Ohio is not an asset when it comes to Michigan voters! How does he not know that? We hate Ohio and vice versa. The two states actually went to war once... that's how we ended up with chunks of Wisconsin and Minnesota.
Been railing against Kasich here for a long time, and he's my Gov., I'm guessing but I wouldn't bet on him winning Oiho (just playing my gut, but I don't see it, and I'd be interested in the odds in Vegas for a $50 bet).
The s#!t going on in the 'smoke filled rooms' for the past year disgusts me, and we're not even to the general election yet. And they wonder why people like me are fed up?
I'm tired of being treated like a 5 year old and seated at the 'kiddie' table, patted on the head and served crumbs while the 'adults' eat the whole pie.
Cruz is the lesser of 2 evils only to the RINOs, I think they're finally realizing that the people won't be pushed into voting for someone they have to hold their nose to vote for, and Cruz is more acceptable to the GOP than Trump.
That's what I meant. I think it's hilarious that they're being compelled to rally around someone that's considered an "outsider" to them.
If you would have told me a year ago that the two front runners for the GOPe nomination would be Donald Trump and Ted Cruz, I would have called you fifteen kinds of crazy.
It could also be that they don't want them to drop out because Ted Cruz could pick up enough support to beat Trump, and their new golden boy Marco Rino, won't improve any. They're certainly hoping for a brokered convention. They can't take the chance that Trump or Cruz would win and make them look even more ineffective.
BTW, not only did Cruz win 2 states, but came in a strong 2nd in 5 more. MN isn't over yet, and I wouldn't count on Rubio winning it. He's not even crowing about it, so he must know something.
Of course, the second I hit enter, they call it for Rino.
Read the above post. Lindsey Graham sounds like the GOPe will bite it and push Cruz to defeat Trump.
That works for me. Rubio is a disaster, Trump is also, Cruz can and will beat Hitlery. If they're smart, they will finally throw in with Cruz for a strong win.
That's a big if.
