Cruz Drops Out.

The GOP is assumed to pander to the religious radicals but tonight the secular, serial adulterer with numerous ex-wives beat out the son of a pastor. The TEA Party lost to a man who promises to use protectionism to bring jobs back to America. Populism over traditional Republican values.

Don't disbar Fred. The postman's son is still in the race for the Republican nomination.

Anyone think that the GOP will have a palace coup at the convention and replace Trump with Paul Ryan?

Ryan does not want to be associated with two failed national elections. One, as the VP in 2012 and two as the Presidential candidate in 2016. He is only 46 y.o. and has a lot of future in front of him. Staying as the Speaker of the House puts him 3rd in line of succession to the Presidency, not a bad position if a Clinton/Sanders ticket is elected.
He would also get the undying enmity of Trump supporters not only in 2016 but also in future elections.
Correction:
In my previous comment, I meant to type "don't despair" not "don't disbar". An attempt at gallows humor.

It should be noted that the Green Party is on the ballot in 20+ states and adding. That encompasses 55% of the population. They are now actively courting Sanders' supporters. It is certainly not a cakewalk to the Presidency for Clinton.

Perhaps if the Conservatives get their act together and put up a decent candidate we can have a real 4 party race.

The Libertarians are still deciding who gets to be their candidate. Between Gov. Johnson and & McAfee I think. Google searches for Libertarian Party and the current candidates shot up after Cruz dropped out.

I trust that we can agree that Trump is pragmatic businessman. A VP candidate that can bring something to the contest is value added. I have always thought the John Kasich was running for Vice President and seems likely to get that position. He would deliver Ohio into the Republican column and would not hurt Trump with his supporters.
