So the Canadian Ted Cruz is having a big night. I’d much rather face him than Trump in November.
I’m rooting for Cruz so that you and I can be right.
Yep, better Cruz than Trump. Cruz will have trouble tacking to middle for the general. Unfortunately, so would Sanders. It’s not easy to move to a place you’ve never even visited.
This is odd. I was struck that if you flip Texas because it was Cruz’s home state, and flip Vermont because it was Sanders, the Trump map and Hillary map for the most part match. Bernie matches Cruz and Rubio combined.. Admittedly, there are a couple of exceptions.. Remember Iowa was decided by coin tosses… and New Hampshire was almost home to Bernie…
