Still, Rubio and Cruz have only a very small chance each to get the Broadway-play happy ending they crave. Which is why the stop-Trump dynamic changed last night, as Rubio’s senior managers effectively acknowledged yesterday afternoon.

They told donors that it was likely Trump could not be defeated outright and in that case the only recourse would be to stay in the race to deny Trump a majority of the Republican delegates, take the race to the convention floor in July, and see if a counter-uprising can be staged against the Trump movement.

the threads and posts here in the tail end of February that focused on what Mitt Romney might do
were contingent on someone actually leading the big Anti-Trump coalition and taking it to its logical
conclusion on ballot two, three or four at the summer RNC. Add all the current delegates everyone
else got in the GOP an' they are slightly less than what Donald Trump now has. They need someone
like Mitt Romney to figleaf legitimize a bold move against THAHHH DONALD and they all know this.
