    I think the blunders by Trump have been piling up, until they are finally taking a toll. I think Cruz can overtake him. If they both go to the RNC with a similar amount of delegates, the brains of the convention will pull Cruz through. But then, what will Donald and his rabid supporters do?

    im going to say no. Wisconsin is what 50 delegates? Trump leads by 250-300 ish. While it is true that if cruz loses its over, not because trump wins wisconsin but because we move to the northeast where cruz has less support.

    If trump loses wisconsin it gives cruz some momentum for 2 weeks but we still go to new york next. So that 2 weeks is all cruz is really going to get.

    His #1 hope is brokered convention and im not sure that helps him.

    As far as I know Wisconsin is not a winner take all state and does not have that many delegates. So no....

    Not a chance Cruz can overtake Trump. But a Cruz win is Wisconsin stalls Trump's momentum and will make it even less likely that he will get to 1237.

    it doesn't matter, after yesterday the heat on The Dumpster is cranking up and he's going to make Rubio's sweat seem like the biggest joke as he starts freaking out and frothing at the mouth in exasperation at having to jump, spin, and twist himself silly to address every jackass thing he does now. he won't be able to handle it as his barely restrained 5 yr old inner brat self comes barreling out in nastiness beyond what we've seen until a nuclear meltdown occurs and he actually tries to kill somebody in Times Square or similar just to prove some crazy ass point. he's going to go down in a blazing inferno eventually and even his SS won't be able to save him from himself. we're watching reality spectacle politics now and it's going to be some real nutty entertainment far beyond anything previous. I can't wait!
