That is speculation.
Donald Trump didn't need to be experienced in order to compete in Colorado. He simply had to hire the right experienced people.
His Colorado campaign staff was in total disarray. Wasn't it ultimately the responsibility of the national campaign director, Lewandowski? He keeps reminding me of a less competent Rohm Emanuel.

Speculation is allowed here.

Correct.
However, some try to pass off speculation and opinions as fact.

Correct. However, some try to pass off speculation and opinions as fact. My opinions are facts.

Ted Cruz figured it out.

"That's probably what the Colorado Republican Party bosses were thinking last year."
Just wondering: How many qualifiers do I need to use to make it easy for you to discern speculation from fact?

Probably not surprising, but Trump leads every demographic in NY.

You may imply that when I'm on here posting my opinions.
I have never claimed to be a journalist.

When you are "...on here posting my opinions"? Pray tell, how is one supposed to know which are your opinions?

Bulletin: Wyoming conspired with the RNC to rig the delegate selection so that Cruz won all of the 14 of Wyoming's delegates awarded today at the state convention. Cruz had previously won 9 of 12 Wyoming delegates awarded at county meetings, with 1 going to Rubio, 1 to Trump and 1 uncommitted. That gives Cruz a net 22 advantage over Trump in Wyoming.
Lol. "Millions of dollars" should be chump change to Trump, especially where every delegate is now a highly precious commodity.
The delegates in Colorado and Wyoming are not inconsequential. They give Cruz a net 56 advantage over Trump, which equates to approximately 60% of the available New York delegates. Instead of whining about a supposedly rigged system, if Trump had actually read the rules for Colorado and Wyoming and had devised a strategy early on to win these delegates, he could be as much as 112 delegates closer to the 1,237 majority threshold. In other words, Colorado and Wyoming could potentially spell the difference between Trump winning or losing the Republican nomination. But, Trump has only himself to blame. He allowed himself to be outsmarted, out-organized and outworked by Cruz in Colorado and Wyoming.

From a series of CBS / YouGov polls from NY / PA / CA:
www.cbsnews.com/news/poll-donald-trump-keeps-large-lead-in-new-york-ahead-in-california/
Some common themes across the states:
◾Trump’s overall appeal is broad across all demographics and internal ideologies. ◾Trump wins with women voters (dispels the preferred media narrative that Trump hates women), and higher information political consumers. ◾Trump is seen as most authentic and capable ◾Trump also leads with Hispanic voters in California, and absolutely crushes the competition with the Asian electorate (again media narrative is that Trump hates immigrants / is racist). ◾The most important issue in all three states (NY, PA, CA) are jobs/economy. And economic voters are overwhelmingly Trump voters. (Trump also leads on the alternative issues – second place: security/terrorism) ◾Conversely, Ted Cruz is seen as the most “inauthentic” candidate in the race.
I don;t consider Cruz "inauthentic", but on those top issues listed, he doesn't come across strongly on a relative basis.
