Ted Cruz doesn't endorse Trump, then upstaged by him - CNNPolitics.com

Ted Cruz sensationally withheld an endorsement of Donald Trump at the Republican National Convention on Wednesday, earning a chorus of boos from the floor before he was upstaged by a power play by the GOP nominee himself.

"As delegates began to protest, Sen. Cruz's wife, Heidi Cruz, was heckled by Trump supporters shouting "Goldman Sachs!" and escorted out by security. Heidi Cruz, who is an employee of Goldman Sachs, declined to answer questions from reporters, saying "I don't talk to the media, thanks."

John Kasich Will Be the Republican Nominee for President

The writing’s on the wall in the Republican Party: John Kasich will be the Party’s nominee in 2016, with Marco Rubio as his running mate. Only the media’s delight at continued Trumpian drama is keeping politicos and pundits from coast to coast from stating the obvious.

This is an interesting analysis and I think that it mostly makes sense. I don't think that it's compelling enough to "prove" the overall point, but it is compelling.

How to cool down Donald Trump - The Washington Post

Trump’s supporters like him — not what pass for his “ideas.”

"Clinton’s opposition researchers must be delirious with delight about what they already have to work with. The 2012 Obama campaign had to resort to tendentiousness to present Mitt Romney’s impeccable business practices as proof that he was a villain. Read what a conscientious conservative, Ian Tuttle of National Review Online, is finding in Trump’s already public record. Then imagine what fun Democrats will have with Trump’s career of crony capitalism lubricated, he boasts, by renting politicians."
