My guess the the establisment told him that if he keeps blocking kashich he is hosed.

Okay, but in order for that to make sense Kasich would have to be capable of getting enough votes to make the convention contested, which is impossible as far as I'm aware

http://www.politico.com/story/2016/05/ted-cruz-drops-out-of-presidential-race-222763

quote:

Ted Cruz is quitting the presidential race, according to campaign manager Jeff Roe, ending one of the best-organized campaigns of 2016 after a series of stinging defeats left Donald Trump as the only candidate capable of clinching the nomination outright.

Cruz had appeared likely to go all the way to the Republican convention, but a string of massive losses in the Northeast, and his subsequent defeat in Indiana, appear to have convinced him there’s no way forward.

John Kasich, however, pledged on Tuesday night to stay in the race until a candidate reaches 1,237 bound delegates.

From the start, Cruz has premised his candidacy on the idea that 2016 would be an election driven by resentment toward the established GOP order. It was a strategy that looked prescient as Cruz steadily rose in the polls throughout 2015 and broke into the top tier in Iowa in early 2016.

But what Cruz did not expect — what no one expected — is that he would be outmatched and outstripped in outsider anger by Trump. Cruz had maintained a fragile truce with Trump all of last year, but by the time he turned on the front-runner, the Manhattan businessman had already captured the voters Cruz was hoping would fuel his candidacy.

People chanting "We want Cruz" is worse than the Jonestown tape. Jesus loving Christ. :stonk:

CRUZ:       Please. For God's sake, let's get on with it. We've lived--we've lived as no other people lived and loved. We've had as much of this primary as you're gonna get. 
            Let's just be done with it. Let's be done with the agony of it. 

(Applause.) 

            It's far, far harder to have to walk through every day, die slowly--and from the time you're a child 'til the time you get gray, you're dying. 

            Dishonest, and I'm sure that they'll--they'll pay for it. They'll pay for it. This is a revolutionary suicide. This is not a self destructive suicide. So they'll pay for this. 
            They brought this upon us. And they'll pay for that. I leave that party to them. 

(Voices.) 

CRUZ: (Inaudible.) ... Don't, don't fail to follow my advice. You'll be sorry. You'll be sorry. If we do it, than that they do it. Have trust. You have to step across. (Music.) 
            We used to think this world was--this world was not our home--well, it sure isn't--we were saying--it sure wasn't. 

            Carly doesn't want to tell them. All she's doing--if they will tell them-- assure these voters. Can't some people assure these voters of the relaxation of stepping over to the next plane? 
            They set an example for others. We said -- one thousand people who said, we don't like the way the world is. 

VOICE:      Take some. 

CRUZ:       Take our life from us. We laid it down. We got tired. We didn't commit suicide, we committed an act of revolutionary suicide protesting the conditions of an inhumane primary.
