Oh yeah, I ignored it for it's utter silliness. No one is going to off the lib, the reason Cruz is staying in, is because there is still a chance that he may not get 1237. Remember that magic number, the amount he has yet to attain?
   
Those states had closed primaries for Republican primaries https://ballotpedia.org/Closed_primary

And Trump won them. Now if Cruz does somehow some way becomes the nominee without trump dying then I'll man up and admit I was wrong but if he's on the R.N.C stage in July then it'll be you with egg on your face especially with all the false hope you been raising.

I didn't go through your list, just a couple right off the top were open, so I discounted the rest, and here's why.

There are 12 states that use a strictly closed primary process, including.

Delaware
Florida
Kansas
Kentucky
Maine
Nevada
New Jersey
New Mexico
New York
Oregon
Pennsylvania
Wyoming
There's a broader explanation of open and closed, and yes, Trump did win a few, and those were blue states packed with libs, which is the point I've been making all along, that he can't win the nomination without the base.
So no, it's not a done deal..

Cruz himself said " I would continue on, as long as there was a viable path, Tonight, I'm sorry to say, it appears that path has been foreclosed." Cruz is a fighter, he would not suspended his campaign for any reason if he thought he had an even 5% chance of winning the nomination in July. And this is despite knowing everything you said and then some. I don't know what else to say to you on this matter so I guess we're see when all is said and done in July.

What part of suspend are you not getting? Did he say End, Cease, Terminate, Concede ETC? NO!
He said suspend, meaning inactive, dormant, sleeping, to be awakened if necessary.
Like I said earlier, Cruz chooses his words wisely, as in foreclosed, where he didn't say terminated, which is the very reason I'll still be voting for Cruz.

You may concede, surrender, give in to the Marxists machine and settle for the few scraps they throw at you, but believe me, there are plenty of us that will stay the fight to the very end, and if that means destroying the GOP, so be it, they brought it on themselves by dealing with Marxists.

Q PATRIOT!!!

We are forty years overdue at changing our nation's political underwear.

Republicans compromised while Democrats refused---their way only. Republicans sold out to stay in office, wasting air on the likes of a Boehner or any number of other "moderates." Democrats helped them, made media pets of them. McCain and his crew ate it up, nose-to-camera-lens. The nation fell for it that these toadies were leaders.

What has the Republican Party done but sell out individual privacy in the name of national security? Where was (GOP) Candice Miller's objection as Michigan Secretary of State when she adopted the REAL ID Act which added magnetic data to every new drivers' license---and they won't disclose what data that really entails.

Nose under the old camel's tent, y'all. Then the black boxes in new cars and computer chips they won't allow you to reprogram. Gotta love their idea of freedom, the GOP people going along the whole way.

Candace Miller was among many Republican S-O-S's who sold us wholesale to Big Brother, without a qualm, and then claimed it for security reasons. Of course. Sure. Right-chew-are, Ronald!

What did the Bushes do to keep us safe from our government? The 9/11 attack understandably led them the other way, but now the worm has turned back and we are facing everything and more that George Orwell ever promised.

We got there because our modern spineless Republicans caved in.
