It might be. This was definitely Cruz's night. We'll have to see how many delegates he gained on Trump but I'm sure he gained. He even won Maine which is not an evangelical state. I think the demographics pointed to a Cruz night but not by this degree. The attacks on Trump are having a definite effect. Not all his supporters are smoking hookahs.
It remains to be seen if Cruz can even pass Trump in actual delegates - never mind get enough to win the nomination outright. The attacks will have to reach more people to do that. By the same token though, It's looking ever more doubtful that Trump will be able to win the nomination outright. It's sure looking like a brokered convention.
If there is a god, I want to believe that there is a god. If there is not a god, I want to believe that there is no god.
