++I watched MSNBC while at the Dentist's office this morning. For some reason Steve Kornacki talked up Ted Cruz as a real challenger to Donald Trump. The polls show the Donald will win New York, Pennsylvania, Connecticut. Rafael Cruz sits in third place in all these contests. And Manafort himself said that April is going to be a cruel month for Cruz.
++The story in the broadcast media was all about Colorado and how GOP spokespeople said that Trump didn't understand the rules and has insulted the entire Colorado party. The Cruz surrogate was Senator Labrador of Idaho who defended Colorado. And Kornacki let Labrador get away with this. The Colorado caucus basically got rid of the voters and allowed the party leaders to declare Cruz won all the delegates, even though there is no evidence that a vote existed.
++Labrador's argument was that Cruz can win the swing states. Here Kornacki found his spine to say that Trump won Virginia, Florida and Ohio and that polls show that Cruz can not win even all Romney's states.
++To back up the anti-Trump sentiment came Ariana Huffington on the Diane Riehm show to says that Trump suffered from sleep deprivation and has lost his momentum to Cruz.
++Roger Stone showed up on Alex Jones' Infowars to say that California was the Big Enchilada and that Cruz' Superpacs are flooding the airwaves before the big primary. He said this year California would be as important as in 1964 when it went for Goldwater,the last Republican outsider.
++It has been days here in Washington of the anti-Trump bandwagon.
++What's interesting is that when Trump says something truthful the whole RNC apparatus attacks him as incompetent and unable to understand the rules. But the media doesn't report that he is getting robbed of delegates by Cruz, who blames him as a Don Carleone. Cruz went on an extended rant about Trump as a mobbed up candidate.
++The latest rumor is that Cruz has been poaching Rubio's delegates. Apparently even suggesting that Rubio has endorsed him. Untrue, Rubio's delegates are still committed to him the first round.
++A spokesperson for the RNC made a mistake today by saying that Trump could win with 1,100 delegates not the 1270 quoted.
