so how much of the fall of rubio can be attributed to him trying to mimic trump? or was that just coincidental to people realizing hes a loving nothingburger

I think he was also kind of coasting by while Jeb was still in the race.

No, but the thread's pretty clearly labeled and everyone knows in their hearts it will get bad if we talk about the Dem primary. Besides there's already a thread for it.

Huh? It's clearly labeled, yeah, as "GOP AND DEM PRIMARIES". How is that supposed to mean "no dem talk here"?

How do they know this?

Oakland county (Detroit Suburbs) is reporting FAST, 20% already in, NARROW Trump lead over Kasich. VERY LITTLE of Wayne County in (Detroit) Trump crushing Kasich. Trump is 1st and Cruz 2nd OVER Kasich in all the podunk rural counties, which are barely trickling in.

Basically even in the one area Trump was potentially going to lose, Oakland, he's NARROWLY ahead so far.

So the Republican party in an attempt to stump Trump have been gingerly pushing each of the three great hopes, but only to a significant enough degree such as to cannibalize from the other two and completely destroy any one of them having a chance to gain significant enough national traction to stand toe to toe with Trump?
Am I understanding this correctly?

the only real chance to block a trump nomination is to keep everyone in the race and force a log jam that denies anyone 50.1% of the delegates

is Sanders going to end up non-viable in Mississippi? the cut-off is 15% and even if he somehow wins Michigan by double digits, Clinton will still be ahead in delegates overall for the night

I'm disappointed in the failure of Kasichmentum, but if you didn't expect Trump to win handily in MI tonight you have not been paying attention. His poll numbers have been faltering lately but it's too little, too late. I think the GOPe lesson from this year is to go absolutely nuclear on outsider candidates from day one-- we've seen the end of the Cain/Carson type candidacies, sadly.

they'll call ms for him soon (edit looks like they did while i was typing this), mi in an hour or two (probably earlier given the evidence from ms, a sample size of n=1). bernie's held his lead with an eleventh of the precincts reporting, i might've expected some slippage by now

OK, we've hit the point where I think we can say that Michigan is going to be a Trumpslide. Cruz is getting the anti-Trump vote in rural Michigan and Kasich is getting it in the suburbs. Trump crushes split opposition.
