Kasich is gone now, too.
That's been true for a long time.
They should film that story and show it every Christmas.

There was still some hope of back room shenanigans at the Republican Convention up until yesterday, but Cruz abandoning his holy crusade pretty much ensured Trump as the Republican nominee unless there's an outright revolution.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Hell, with no challenger left in the race, outright revolution is all they've got. The only way to keep Trump from being the nominee is for the Republican leadership to kick him out and pick someone who hasn't even been campaigning, and I don't think there's even precedent for that. Trump's devotees would lose what little minds they have and probably start shooting at government buildings. I'm glad I live in a little island of blue in this sea of Southern red.

Not modern precedent, at least. James Garfield ended up as president after the Republican convention couldn't come together to nominate any of the people who were actually running that year.

Maybe the Republicans will come together and nominate Obama?

Holy cow, you drop out of current news to work on your programming project, and another candidate bites the dust.

Ha!

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Could a Republican still run as an independent, or is it too late for that?

Not too late! Although if they are just starting now, they'd be hard pressed to get on the ballot in Texas, because they'd need like 80K signatures by Monday. [link]

I can actually name an honest to goodness moderate Republican: Senator Susan Collins of Maine.
