Cruz throws a hail mary in Colorado, incomplete... but wait! the refs called a phantom pass interference penalty. Cruz gets the ball on the one yard line and scores the easy touchdown. What a gift.
Cruz gets all the Colorado delegates without a vote. That's definitely the way these things need to be done, right? We don't need a vote of the people.
Can we finally dispel this myth that Cruz is "anti-establishment"? The guy is getting backed by the Bush family, he has ties to TPP, his wife works for Goldman-Sachs and sat on a globalist committee, Colorado GOP just gave him all the delegates.... ya man, he's clearly an OUTSIDER.
Doesn't the establishment realize all of this shadiness is only going to make DT want to run as an independent even more? This is not the definition of "being treated fairly".
The ugliness of the system is really showing its head right now. Curious what this does for the GOP and future elections.
Of course Cruz isn't anti-establishment. I recall reading that he was supported by a TurtleFace Super PAC.
More like the defense didn't get on the field and he walked in for a touchdown. Cruz didn't make the rules for Colorado's delegate allocation, either Trump didn't know how the delegates where going to be awarded or he knew and decided not to send anyone, but yea lets blame the guy that showed up lol.

You can tip toe and dance all you want around the fact that NO VOTE took place and Cruz was awarded all the delegates. Ya, he's clearly the guy the establishment hates.
These rules are asinine and backwards 3 times over. I applaud Cruz and his campaign. They did what they had to. They got a bigger boost out of this than Wisconsin.
In the long run if trump is to be the nominee then it helps him. Why? Because u have to have a ground game to win a presidential election. Paul manafort will be a welcome addition.

No no, you see, some time ago there was a vote by the people of Colorado who should be delegates... nobody knew about it and most people didn't vote but nonetheless, that's who represents them. No vote is necessary now. They have a little lord delegate to decide for them.
Isn't Trump a master negotiator though?
This isn't negotiation, its mental self gratification.

At which Trump has no peer.
You Trumpettes complaining about how these states choose their delegates had no gripes until this year. Were you that ignorant of the process, or is it just now not working for your candidate?
LOL. Trumpettes (as well as Trump himself) are beside themselves.
It's clearly going to a contested convention, and Trump WILL NOT win.
You can say you don't like how the delegates in a state a distributed, find I'll even agree. But that's the state parties Choice, its up to GOP members of Colorado to change that. It's when you start trying to paint the picture it was a gift or someone is cheating I have a problem, either trumps campaign didn't understand the rules of Colorado when they where release in August or he didn't care. Neither is a mark against the guy who won.

Cruz is anti-establishment. Cruz has an actual anti-establishment voting record. He's being supported by the Pub establishment only because the alternative is a former recent Democrat named Trump.

You just ignored the other three points indicating he is establishment type. Nothing about him says he would do anything differently than the status quo politician we've voted in for three decades.
Voting record? Ya, That was great when he skipped the "audit the fed" vote. What a hero.

It was a gift... They GAVE him the delegates without a vote occurring. No way around it. No vote happened. Nobody was allowed to vote.
If a story came out saying "black people in Colorado now can't vote" the people would lose there mind. But since the party made a RULE cancelling the voting portion of the primary for EVERYBODY, now it's cool. Now people are talking about this like it's normal.

Wrong there was votes, they had a cacus as announced in August and the delegets where elected there wasn't a primary vote that's different, but plenty of states go without primary votes.

Oh right right... There was an election nobody knew about to appoint delegates. Now it's legit. Now the people have lords to represent them, no further voting required. Thank you committee nobody appointed! Isn't this great?! It's like Game of Thrones now!

What other three points?
He gets support from Bush only because Bush sees him as the only alternative to Trump, and Bush hates Trump more. That doesn't make Cruz an establishment type, any more than support from David Duke makes Trump a racist.
His wife's job? That proves nothing; I know some Atheists married to clergy.
He sat on a committee? I'd want to sit on the Global Warming committee, that doesn't mean I buy into that scam (although Trump apparently does).
Cruz voted AGAINST the TPP.
Really, at least come up with something logical.
And Trump conveniently has NO voting record. He does have a long record of huge donations to Dem candidates. He's really a lot like Hillary. If you want a race between Hillary Clinton and Hillary Trump, then your support for Trump makes sense.

If your hero couldn't bother to check the rules in Colorado long ago, then he's not fit to be POTUS.
"Putin has nukes? Why didn't someone tell me that?"
