My pal on the Cruz campaign who is working Indiana says his team “finally knows how to effectively and consistently flip Trump votes.” That’s good. But sufficient ground troops are needed to make that happen (à la Wisconsin), and there’s trouble amassing them. That would be the bad news.
Still, it seems like there is a genuine opportunity for Cruz for a Hoosier win. Why? My pal: Trump’s un-conservative policies are catching up to him. “His support of Planned Parenthood, Michael Bloomberg’s anti-gun push, his proposal for what amounts to touchback amnesty,” and a litany of other deviations are causing avowed Trump supporters in Indiana to have second thoughts. “Most of Trump’s supporters have no idea what the man is really all about, or what his actual history is. Most of his supporters have, apparently, made up their mind about him based upon little more than rhetoric. And here’s our experience: When confronted with a detailed and verifiable picture of their candidate, Trump supporters will frequently abandon their candidate and switch their allegiance to Ted.”
The process of flipping Trump votes, he says, “can only be done on a one-on-one basis. . . . Face-to-face encounters are the most effective means that the Cruz campaign has to actually erode Trump’s support in Indiana.”
So for Cruz, it comes down to this: trained door-knockers. Of which there is a shortage.
My pal boasts: “With 750 more volunteers, we can hand Donald Trump a genuinely humiliating defeat.”
The boast comes with a plea: Any Cruzniks looking for front-line action in Indiana can sign up here.

This week, with 172 delegates on the line, John Kasich’s presence in the race sadly serves only as massive spoiler to help Donald Trump, and the polls confirm it.

It is quite evident there is something amiss about the BLS’ employment reports. Is the disparity simply an anomaly in the seasonal adjustments caused by the depth of the financial crisis? Is there an exceptional and unaccounted for margin of error in the surveys? Or, is it something more intentional by government-related agencies to keep “confidence” elevated as Central Banks globally “paddle like crazy” to keep global economies afloat.

Ted Cruz’s presidential campaign is vetting Carly Fiorina as a potential running mate, THE WEEKLY STANDARD has learned.
According to a spokeswoman for Fiorina, the former Hewlett-Packard CEO and one-time presidential candidate is being vetted by Cruz's campaign.
Normal stuff, said Sarah Isgur Flores, who served as deputy campaign manager during Fiorina's bid, when asked about the process. She added that Fiorina has met with members of the Cruz campaign and has given them financial disclosures and other documentation. Flores added that no offers have been made.
On ABC's This Week Sunday, reporter Jon Karl floated the idea that Cruz could announce a running mate before next week's critical Indiana primary and suggested Fiorina would be the one person to fill that role.

When the very people who championed “Fight for $15” start looking for a way to dodge the requirement, you know there’s something inherently wrong with the policy.
