By "suspending" their campaigns they can continue to ask for donations, to pay that debt off. That is why practically all candidates "suspend" their campaigns.<br /><br />Of course, we do know that Ted is ready to rise like Dracula, the first chance he gets. Unlike with Nixon, we are going to have Ted to kick around for a long time yet.<br /><br />Now, about that sabotage: You can be absolutely positive that Republicans will continue trying to plot to take the nomination away from Trump, right until the convention, by fair means or foul. It's what they are, and the opinions of their stupid, gullible base won't change that. They have always succeeded in ramming their choice down their base's throats, and I am sure many of them still believe they can pull it off again- and they may be right.Green Eaglehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13477132834757467690noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1903235483068862940.post-86995477338795012232016-05-04T07:37:53.667-07:002016-05-04T07:37:53.667-07:00Welp.

There is still a lik...Welp. No more Cruz campaign.<br /><br />There is still a likelihood Cruz can sabotage the convention to his favor, depending on if Cruz can still affect the delegate selections in other states. But that game would be so destructive to the GOP it would be tantamount to handing Hillary not only the White House but also a 62-seat Democratic Senate and a Dem-controlled House.Paul Whttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13092023794397583036noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1903235483068862940.post-89423049427145690232016-05-04T05:18:49.365-07:002016-05-04T05:18:49.365-07:00I prefer this idea which was posted on Facebook: ...I prefer this idea which was posted on Facebook: <br /><br />"Why isn't Cruz being forced to carry his unviable bid all they way to the convention?"<br /><br />Yes, that was rude, crude, and socially unacceptable, but so is Cruz. <br /><br />At least Fiorina can fire the campaign staffers as the consolation prize for being his VP running mate for a week. <br /><br />I'm not usually this impolite, but the last decade and a half of Republicans Gone Wild has gotten to me - and I hope this primary is the last hurrah from that party.
