Resign yourself to the depressing reality: It’s going to be Trump vs. Clinton
Tuesday: Liveblogging the New York Presidential Primary "Trump's lead (756 delegates to Ted Cruz's 559 and John Kasich's 144) is substantial, but he still has a ways to go to reach the 1,237 needed to clinch the nomination. If he falls short, Cruz may yet overtake him at a contested convention. RedState's Michael Harrington has estimated that the convention will be open, and that Cruz will dominate there. Betting markets still place Trump ahead, however."
Why Trump’s Abortion Statement Is Hardly the Worst Thing He’s Done . . . "Donald J Trump has generated ample reasons — redundant ones — for rejecting him as GOP standard-bearer, not to mention POTUS. As a settled #NeverTrump voter, however, I’ll admit: when it comes to reasons I’ll never pull the lever for the reality-TV-star bloviator, his (briefly entertained) endorsement of slapping the wrist of someone who is complicit in the extermination of her unborn son or daughter would fall somewhere at the very bottom of an otherwise undisputedly fetid list." . . .
No, Republicans Don't Have to Hand the Nomination to Donald Trump . . . "The fact of the matter is that a candidate needs 1237 delegates to win the nomination. When a candidate doesn't get 1237 delegates in the first round of voting, the delegates can go back to the drawing table, and choose another candidate if they so wish. If 1237 delegates decide to throw their support behind Ted Cruz in the second round of voting, that's not merely "legal," it's fair."
No, Mr. Trump, We Are Not 'Supposed to Be a Democracy
. . . "Now, there’s no evidence whatsoever that The Donald has ever read the Constitution or the founding principles of this country, let alone understands them, but the appeal of his argument to people like Bolling is a testament to the utter failure of the educational system to teach basic civics and history." . . .
Anti-Trump Forces Routed in New York "Reports of Donald Trump’s demise have been overstated. After a disappointing few weeks, Trump came roaring back on Tuesday night with a huge victory in his home state of New York."
