Wildcard berths that can't beat teams without a winning record should have homefield advantage
I find Cruz fans WAY more irritating than Trump fans.
"But Cruz doesn't work with others because he is principled!"
No, he doesn't work with others because he's a self-important douchebag who thinks he is right all the time.

I had a female teacher in high school who believed that it wasn't good sense for women to be trusted with that position, since Eve clearly demonstrated that women couldn't be trusted with that authority over men.
Rural Mississippi, though, so we're a bit more backwards than even Kentucky at times.

Cruz would definitely be a worse president than Trump. Cruz would get us into a war 100%. Trump has alot of bluster, but he doesn't think we should be in the middle East and he is willing to negotiate.
Thread that.

Those margins of error on the YouGov polls are insane. Nearly 6% on the GOP side and nearly 8% on the Democratic side.

Trump and Cruz have pretty much the same foreign policy except Cruz is further to the right on Iran and Israel.

Great Plains/Upper Midwest is less racist than the eastern half of the country.
Man, my hometown is right in the center of the Oregon deep red.
at least they don't search racist things online.

Yeah, but Cruz is beholden to big oil. Those are his biggest donators. Plus Trump is a negotiator. He would sit down with the leaders of the other countries and actually listen to reason. Cruz wouldn't.

Trump should have skipped the last debate. Maybe even Rubio would have been doing better.

That is one of the methods of expressing it, yes.
what's intriguing me the most is how his base doesn't seem to overlap as well with places with high hispanic or muslim density.
Like, given his rethoric, one would be justified in expecting it to.

God only Rush fucking Limbaugh could say Ted Cruz is "down the middle."
What's the right then, murdering Medicaid patients?
Yeah but he's not getting 8 delegates today

Former Romney CFO filed paperwork "Romney for President" with the FEC
Mwahahaha.
Please proceed asshole.
Mwahahaha.
Please proceed asshole.
Nah.
Iran:
- Trump wants a better deal because the deal Obama made was a "disaster". Cruz wants no deal and will tear Obama's deal apart on Day 1.
ISIS:
- Trump wants to attack ISIS financial resources, Cruz wants to "carpet bomb" ISIS cities
North Korea:
- Trump wants to use China leverage to get them to deal with North Korea. Cruz has made no pronouncements that I'm aware of.
Trump is a more acceptable option than Cruz in foreign policy. Cruz is a nightmare on everything.
Wowwwwwww
Obama's the one who loves death panels.
Holy shit. So much for the "shadow" campaign.

Mitt Romney is absolutely despised by the Trump/Nationalist wing of the Republican party:
https://today.yougov.com/news/2016/03/05/civil-war-gop/
It's going to be so impossible to get 1000 Trump delegates to accept getting screwed by Romney in Cleveland.

It's similar to what I've always argued about super-white European countries when I see the argument that they're better on race relations. Basically, it's hard to be racist when you don't have targets, but I don't think any region (with the exception of the South) is more racist than any other. Let a black family move into the neighborhood out west, and (while I'd love to be proven wrong) I think they'd be treated unfairly.

21% favorable, hah.
That was back in late Jan / early Feb. Romney is insane if he goes through with this.
The ambition of politicians never ceases to amaze me.

The statement is written terribly. It's saying that 26% of the general voting public views Romney favorably (compared to 47% for Obama).
Only 21% of Trump supporters like Romney.

Yeah, I realized what it was trying to say and edited.
When you see a path to the ultimate office of power which you have craved for the better part of a decade, it's hard to let it slip away regardless of how delusional that path may be.

Romney has no other political future. This is the only chance he has and he has a chance.

I don't Tweet. I'm going to be cut off from our Lord emperor Trump.
What a mess. You don't even tweet. I am the best tweeter. People love my tweets. So many people retweet me. I'd tell you names, but you would be shocked. You wouldn't believe me. Karl Icahn is one. Great guy.

I wonder if Kasich could make inroads with West Coast Republicans. I'm not sure how similar they are to their New England counterparts. Kasich did well enough in Vermont and Massachusetts to possibly get second places in New York, Connecticut and Rhode Island, especially if Rubio is really on a downward spiral and drops out from losing Florida. If that happens and Kasich wins Ohio he has every reason to stay in.

Welcome to the corporate establishment. We're all in this together! And we're all shrills. We'll tell you where Hillary has hidden all the bodies in the near future.
It's probably nothing, but I bet Rmoney is just positioning himself to be a compromise candidate. I mean, I don't know how a compromise between Trump and Cruz is Rmoney. Actually, we do. He's got the money of Trump, and a face I;d like to punch from Cruz.
welcome. You might be able to help us answer this. It seems like Cruz is surging. Is it enough to take Trump in MS or the open primary will probably save him?

They'd have to change the convention rules to enable a Romney candidacy and scrap any provision requiring preexisting support from pledged delegates. It'd make the optics even worse. And I'm not sure how Romney would get this done as I doubt his organization has been working to plant his people in the rules committee.
Hey, if there gonna stop Trump they'll have to be prepared to look horrible.
Did they change the rules recently? The last time we had a brokered convention, they nominated someone who didn't run! Pretty sure they can still vote for whoever on second ballot.

I'm still vaguely shocked that that actually happened.

They changed it in 2012. You can't be nominated unless you have the majority of delegates in 8 states.

Trump facing this barrage of ads in FL, hasn't faced like this in any other state.
