QOTD: "After suppressing his inner rage at having been beaten for about 24 hours, Trump broke loose with a bizarre Twitter barrage accusing Cruz of having stolen the caucus from him. Trump’s accusation of fraud are predictably lame, bitter, and lacking in credibility. Since no one is claiming that Cruz’s people actually stole votes or falsified the results, all this amounts to is comical and childish sour grapes, especially since they come from a candidate that has spent the last six months hurling abuse at any and all rivals.

Perhaps Trump’s fans will buy into his sense of grievance, but it remains to be seen whether this sort of thing, which reflects the flip side of the confident, brash personality that voters seemed to like, will do him any good. But whether this is one more misstep by Trump in the wake of his foolish debate boycott or not, it’s pretty clear that Cruz won’t be forming any coalition with him." --Jonathan S. Tobin
