This guy couldn't organize a bunch of girl scouts to a picnic.

There's a few goodies in this article.

QuoteAccording to a person familiar with the campaign, Braynard's departure has left some on the campaign unable to access some of its files. Some of his team's duties have fallen to a young staffer named Ashton Adams, according to another person close to the campaign. Adams graduated from the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville in 2015 with a marketing degree and joined the campaign in November, according to her LinkedIn profile. It lists her title for the campaign as "Deputy Director, Trump Tech" and lists an internship at the consumer products company Colgate Palmolive as her only prior work experience.

QuoteAnd last weekend in Colorado, Trump was shut out as Ted Cruz secured all six of the delegates elected at two congressional district assemblies that were held a week ahead of the state GOP convention, where the delegation's remaining 27 delegates will be elected Saturday.

At the assembly in Denver, Trump seemed to have as many or more supporters show up than Cruz. But they didn't have a plan. The Cruz campaign, meanwhile, encouraged its supporters to unite behind a slate of delegates, enabling the Texas senator to win all three delegate slots from the district (the same situation played out later Saturday afternoon at the other assembly in Aurora).

"Part of it is a reflection of reality: there is not a lot of Trump support in the first place," said Josh Penry, a GOP operative based in Denver. "Add that to the general lack of organization and you get goose eggs. I think there is a very real chance Cruz sweeps [the rest of the delegates in] Colorado on Saturday."

Maybe, just maybe it's a good thing that there are no more debates. This way he doesn't have an audience when he's yelling and screaming. Now he can just act the fool and people will see him for what he is worth...a friggin moron.
People sleep peacefully at night because there are a few tough men prepared to do violence on their behalf.

A foolish man complains about his torn pockets.

A wise man uses it to scratch his balls.

One would naturally get the impression all those endorsements would lead to votes, delegates and have some organization behind them.  Not so.   But Ted Cruz has his supporters too, from my email:

QuoteGovernor Scott Walker

When I ended my presidential bid, I did so hoping it would clear the field so that a positive conservative message could rise to the top...and it has.

Tomorrow, I will be casting my vote for Ted Cruz.

He is the best-positioned candidate to both win the Republican nomination and defeat Hillary Clinton. He is a proven conservative leader with a bold vision to reignite the promise of America.

After eight years of the failed Obama-Clinton Administration, Americans are looking for real leadership and a new direction.

As a conservative governor, I believe we need a president who understands that our founders intended for the power to be in the states and in the hands of the people -- not concentrated in Washington. Just like we did in Wisconsin, Ted Cruz is not afraid to challenge the status quo and to stand up against the big government special interests.

That is why I have endorsed Ted Cruz for president.

Your contribution can help Ted Cruz win big in Wisconsin tomorrow and continue to rack up the delegates he will need to be our nominee and take on Hillary Clinton in the general election.

Pundits are calling Wisconsin "the new New Hampshire" because of its importance in creating momentum at a crucial point in the primary calendar.

Polls show Ted Cruz will win Wisconsin tomorrow, and I urge you to support his conservative campaign right now with a contribution of $10, $35, $50, $100, $250, $500, $1,000, or even $2,700 so he can capitalize on the momentum tomorrow's big victory will give him.

Let me be very clear: I am casting my support for Ted Cruz, not against anyone else. That is because I truly believe America needs Ted Cruz.

Senator Cruz believes in the conservative principles upon which America was built, and he will be a tireless fighter for our conservative priorities like repealing Obamacare, ending Common Core, and putting a stop to illegal immigration.

Tomorrow is a big day for Wisconsin...and with your immediate support for the Cruz for President campaign, it will be the turning point in the race for the Republican nomination.

Thank you,

Scott Walker

Meanwhile, I just heard a clip of Trump saying, "If we win here, it's over!"  ... alot of assumptions here...

Disarray is when you're late for a meeting, the car won't start, the wife burned your breakfast and the dog just peed in your briefcase.

Trump's campaign is like a bunch of drunk teenagers pulling a Chinese fire drill in front of the police station and the doors are locked with the engine running and car in low gear.

Maybe no one will notice? :lol:

It is Cruz's fault for cheating.

We need to figure out how Cruz has been able to engineer Trump to stay right at ~30% for the entire campaign.....

The campaign may be in disarray, but the media is ignoring that, while still continuing with their all Trump, all the time, motif. It was fascinating to see speaker after speaker come on Fox, this morning, and make excuses for Trump while citing polls no one had ever heard of to show how far ahead he was.

With the Ailes blackmail revelations, everything makes sense now.  Before I couldn't guess what big time influencer was doing all of this.  How did so many media outfits, online and otherwise conservative personalities, get the time-synced cue to go in for Trump?  With the dirt Trump has on Ailes, this all makes sense.

Ailes runs one of the best news organizations on the planet. Not only that but the company is owned by a real, live, actual, count the money billionaire. I doubt very seriously Trump could dig up anything on Ailes, without Ailes digging up ten times as much on Trump. And Ailes has entire networks to make it nightly news.

Nothing was dug up.  Are you not familiar with the whole Ailes/PR guy thing?
