Ted Cruz on Squawk Box

Filed under: General — Patterico @ 8:10 pm

 

Several commenters shared this video, and I watched all 46 minutes. For those interested in economics — which should be all of you — it is a fascinating video to watch.

 

Ted Cruz is head and shoulders the best candidate for the presidency since Ronald Reagan. Before him, the only worthy candidate in the last 100 years was Barry Goldwater. Smart, well-prepared, articulate, and always on message — if you don’t like him, it’s your fault, not his.

In A Two-Man Race, Cruz Is Beating Trump 2 To 1 In Delegates

By Steve Berman | April 16, 2016, 10:52pm

That’s right, since Rubio dropped out, Cruz has added more than twice as many delegates as Trump. And he just added another 14 delegates, sweeping Wyoming.

 

It’s a two-man race. Kasich literally doesn’t count because he’s mathematically eliminated. At this rate, Trump will find himself mathematically eliminated by the end of May. To have a chance at making 1,237 in California, he needs to take almost every single delegate between New York on Tuesday and Washington State (that’s 466 delegates).

 

It’s pretty unlikely that will happen.

 

So Trump has his army of misfits and zombie media blasting the fact that the GOP in Wyoming, like Colorado, chooses its delegates how it pleases, not submitting to the Orwellian “will of the people.” http://theresurgent.com/in-a-two-man-race-cruz-is-beating-trump-2-to-1-in-delegates/

Prediction: Ted Cruz Will Be President

Filed under: General — Patterico @ 6:46 am

 

Just offering a counterpoint to the conventional wisdom you will read today.

 

believe Ted Cruz will be, not just the Republican nominee, but also our next President.

 

I don’t believe Trump will get to 1237, his expected good performance last night notwithstanding. Cruz will do OK in Pennsylvania because many delegates are unbound. He’ll do OK in California. And he’ll win Indiana — a state that many observers watching the numbers believe is critical for Trump to clinch the nomination outright.

 

Once Trump fails to clinch, it will be an ugly process, but Cruz will win out in the end. There is no white horse, with or without a horn on its head. There is just Ted Cruz, and he is the alternative the party will pick. I just don’t believe that the Sniveling Coward can win if he doesn’t take it on a first ballot.
