RUSH LIMBAUGH (HOST): Folks I can't -- I was just telling Snerdley, 9:30, 10 o'clock this morning, I'm going through show prep, but I'm putting this all together and I'm just absorbing everything. I'm not making any calculations and I'm not adding delegates or any of that. And I'm -- at the time I'm thinking about here's [Gov. John] Kasich and [Sen. Marco] Rubio and just they're, they're both hopeless in terms of their own chances to win. And a little, I don't know, flash in my mind that said [Sen.] Ted Cruz can win this. That this isn't -- the delegate spread right now's only 100 delegates or something like it. And if you look at the delegate count for the last week, the delegate count for the last week, Cruz has won 125, and Trump has won 124. Now don't -- it's a long shot. I really can't -- I've not studied. I can't, I can't present to you or lay out a scenario by which it happens. It was just a gut reaction instinct to everything I was absorbing at the time and it's why I started pondering this.
Interesting aspect here that Rubio and Cruz, or Rubio and Kasich have no prayer, yet they're staying in,and, in both cases, you'd have to say they're both staying in for personal reasons. Kasich's staying in for his own state of Ohio, even though he knows he has no prayer. And, by the way, isn't it true that the only way anybody on the Republican side other than Trump has a chance is if there is unity on the anti-Trump side of this? If that doesn't happen -- and it's arguable that it will. I mean Cruz is a polarizing figure as we all know. But if they're staying in just to hurt Cruz, if Rubio is staying in just to hurt Cruz, it wouldn't surprise me, there's animosity there. And ditto Kasich. If the primary reason they're staying in is not just to get to their home states and do well so they have bragging rights or what have you, but if they're in this specifically to hurt Cruz, doesn't that kind of argue against what we've all been told is the purpose of this whole process?
