It might not be “no skullduggery in Rush’s eyes; but, if the people of the state voted for Trump and if Cruz goes in and offers them “pay for play or change their vote” then that is cheating the people of their vote. For what reason would a delegate change their vote if he is suppose to be representing a certain county. Those people are committed to that person.
The Republican National Committee and insiders ague that their rules are their rules. Therefore, it is okay to ignore the results on the field. No, that is cheating, the voters vote in good faith. They believe they are voting for certain candidates, not local delegates who can alter the real final score with their own personal preference OR PAYOFF.
Working party officials, much like coaches work referees is acceptable. Senator Cruz is doing exactly that because he is a part of the corrupt Wall Street crowd and the Bush I One World Order. But once a state votes and the results are in, the candidate who wins the most votes should be awarded the most delegates. Even more important, voters should be allowed to participate in every manner throughout the process.
A situation like Colorado, where party officials changed the rules to exclude voting is akin to a rain-out that was never rescheduled or played. A game in which the umpires, not the players, decide the result. The reality is that what seems to be going on is that certain party insiders and the part establishment do not like the results they are watching unfold on the field. They do not like what they see on the scoreboard, and they definitely do not like the standings. The do not like seeing Donald Trump on top. They have been trying to take him out of the ball game since DAY ONE and enough is enough.
However, just as in the world of sports, a level playing field is required in the world of politics. The winner should be decided on the field by the voters – NOT BY A FLAWED SYSTEM THAT disenfranchises citizens.
The RNC and the Democratic Party has been gerry-mandering elections and it has to stop – NOW.

Rush: ‘No Skullduggery’ in Cruz’s ‘Brilliant’ Play for Delegates
By Greg Richter | Wednesday, 20 Apr 2016 09:26 PM
Conservative talk radio host Rush Limbaugh told Donald Trump supporters in his audience Wednesday that Ted Cruz isn’t “buying” delegates as they fear, but simply taking advantage of the nominating process.
“It’s brilliant. It’s politics as it’s been for eons. There’s nothing new about it,” Limbaugh said. “There’s no cheating. There’s no skullduggery. There’s nothing illegal.”
Limbaugh was responding to concerns of Trump supporters that Cruz is wooing Trump delegates to vote for him on a possible second ballot by paying them off. A second, third or fourth vote might be needed if no one enters the convention with the 1,237 delegates needed for the nomination.
(This should never happen – the first called vote is what counts – not who can pay off the voters to win.)
But Limbaugh said he never meant to imply Cruz was doing anything nefarious or illegal.
“As far as I know, Ted Cruz is going in there and selling himself and his conservatism, period,” he said. “There’s nothing illegal about it. But apparently some of you Trump supporters think that Cruz is so reprehensive, so horrible, so rotten, the only way any delegate would support him is if he’s paying ’em off.”
And that is happening. So, Rush, you are just going along with the gerry-mandering. Just because the political systems have been cheating forever – doesn’t make it right. The problem has been no one had the balls to call it out – until Trump.
