    Sadly yes. I just posted the latest "Yankee Locker Room" rant in last night's game thread. Best one he's ever done.

    Media is in full court press to spin Acela primary and get Trump over the finish line....so they can gut him and destroy the GOP. You either buy into this hype or you believe there is no way the GOP commits trumpicide.

    And this BS about wavering delegates is comical. If that is the case then you'll be hearing a lot about rules committee changing 16a to dump Trump. There are mechanisms left to derail Trump, but for unity sake the party is hoping that voters send this to contested convention. Otherwise it's gonna get ugly.

    It's amazing that she's such a flawed and hideous candidate but people still blindly follow her. It's proof that people would vote for a drum of toxic waste as long as it had a D next to it.

    Trump can get majority in IN, sweep NJ and still need 130 or so of 171 in CA.

    Going to a contested convention, especially after rules committee does their thing.

    Did anyone see her completely lie to the coal miner who confronted her in West Virginia about putting them out of business? She lies and panders to whatever audience she happens to be in front of that day. It's absolutely sickening how vile this woman is.

    ...said it many times, it's hard for me to believe that in this whole country the best we have to offer and choose from is Hillary, Sanders, Trump, Cruz, and Kasich.

    ...in all honesty, if Derek Sanderson Jeter were running, he'd get my vote instead.

    Trump is going to win West Virginia and Oregon as well. I appreciate you position but at some point reality is what it is.

    When all the smoke clears it'll be Trump & Clinton.

    At the end of the day the GOP will lose more than they will gain with Trump and they will punt him.

    1. Tax returns & financial disclosures
    2. Fraud charges and court cases
    3. Negatives with women & minorities

    Still don't think he gets 1237, but if he does, he's not getting 1237 votes on the first ballot. Cruz delegates will control rules committee and can block his nomination.

    Don't quite know what your not seeing. Besides the 3 states you named their are 6 more that trump will get delegates in. On the first ballot trump will have something like 1300 to 1400 delegates. After tonight , the gop will put immense pressure on cruz who has no chance to cease and desist and his support from people who don't want to back a loser will dwindle. Cruz is delirious but even that state will have its limits. And to clinch matters his "running mate" (perfect choice to unveil in indiana with her rep of outsourcing jobs there) duplicated a painful gop memory of dole falling off the stage by also falling off the stage yesterday. Cruz standing nearby just continued to shake hands.
