Pretty sure Cruz is hated a heck of a lot more. Anyway, he's won Kansas, and is getting over 50% of the vote there, which is the first time anybody has in the primary. Too bad it isn't a 50%+ takes all state.

Finally, a convincing beatdown for Trump, though.

Then again, Cruz's probably no better.

It has been determined that Trump is an average unladen swallow travelling northbound at his maximum sustainable speed of -3 Obama-cubits per second in the middle of a class 3 hurricane.

I'm still convinced that he's going to force the US to default on it's debt and/or shut down the government the first chance he gets.

I'm surprised that 11 debates in, there haven't been any questions on shutting down the government or letting the US default on it's debt when it comes time to deal with the debt ceiling.

Dont worry, Rubio will probably win a majority in Puerto Rico, get all 23 of it's delegates and then have a huge amount of momentum.

Or Kaisich will win Michigan next Tuesday and be off to the races.

And off to the convention. Though I think you implied that.

Anybody know why CNN, Politico, and The Guardian are stuck on 4.5% (one precinct) for Maine while that decisiondesk thing linked in the 538 liveblog has 27.3%? edit: 36.4 now. Also, Rubio is having a pretty horrible night tonight, so far.

According to Warlock Nate Silver Maine's Republican primary is so low-turnout that they're bizarre eclectics who could and have potentially nominated anyone.

I didn't see him say that.

Also, that decision desk thing called it for Cruz, meanwhile, I have no clue as to why other news stuff are being so slow to report results from there.

Their crystal balls weren't designed to cope with Maine winters, obviously.

Probably the electoral site for each state?

Which is why the WTF. I wouldn't expect a place that elected Collins to pick Cruz.

I mean for all at once. I don't want to listen to any media on the tv because they are annoying.
