Krauthammer: ‘Extremely Late’ for Kasich, Cruz to Try and Stop Trump

‘If you get the five state sweep on Tuesday, you have a candidate on the roll coming into Cleveland’

BAIER: "I heard a lot of people talking about this today, Charles. Some said, wow, it’s kind of late."
KRAUTHAMMER: "It’s extremely late. Had they worked this out a month or two ago where they each go one-on-one, trump said I want to go one-on-one with Cruz, look at his chance in Indiana. This is the end game. Momentum’s tomorrow starting pitcher, meaning there is no momentum. There’s no tomorrow, really. This is a last attempt to try to stop momentum. It means something. The result is about 61%, a huge blowout. If you get the five state sweep on Tuesday, you have a candidate on the road coming into Cleveland. If he’s on a road, Mara is right, you could be 50 away, maybe 100 away. There will be a sense that the people want him, you have to go with the people. That’s what the momentum will mean. This can work to the extent if he stopped in Indiana, if Cruz is strong enough to do that, that could have a psychological effect. I think everybody says it’s all about numbers. No. It’s about what the sense is. What the people want in a broad sense. If you stop them in one place or in California, then I think you can have a fight on the floor that looks like it is a legitimate fight."
