When I saw the Politico story last night, I figured the end of the Ted Cruz campaign was near. His internal polling must be flashing red:

“BURLINGAME, Calif. — Ted Cruz is speaking confidently about knocking off Donald Trump to take the GOP nomination, but his top staffers admit they’re getting nervous. In interviews, several aides, speaking on the condition of anonymity, expressed growing alarm that Cruz would lose Indiana’s primary on Tuesday — an outcome that would be a major blow to his hopes of holding Trump below the 1,237 delegates needed to clinch the GOP nomination on the party convention’s first ballot. The aides concede that, without a win in an Indiana primary where 57 delegates are at stake, Cruz’s shot at the nomination would significantly narrow. And while the Texas senator has closed the gap in Indiana in recent days, he still trails Trump and his decision to tap Carly Fiorina as a running mate has provided only a modest boost in the state, according to sources familiar with the campaign’s internal deliberations.”

I woke up this morning to the big news:

“Donald Trump has a double-digit lead over Ted Cruz in Indiana just days before the state’s primary, according to a new Wall Street Journal/NBC News/Marist poll. Trump leads Cruz by 15-percentage points in Indiana, 49 percent to 34 percent. John Kasich falls behind at 13 percent …

Well, that explains a lot.

That’s what I have been waiting for.

This poll tells me it is over. Trump is going to comfortably win Indiana. He is going to win the Republican nomination outright. The barbarians have conquered the Republican Party!

Note: Happy May Day! I think I will have a drink and watch some movies!
