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.I doubt the attacks on Trump are scaring off his supporters so much as scaring the apathetic into voting against him. There were record turnouts, and that wasn't because they were all jazzed about Cruz.
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.
What's nice about Trump is that he's getting more and more people that normally didn't give a fuck about politics to start looking into things and get more involved. A goal of the elite is to keep people poor so they have to spend so much time working along with distracting them with fictional TV and movies that they have no time to think about politics, so they don't get involved and allow the establishment to carry on unhindered. People on the left and right and even in the middle are waking up to the control mechanisms that have been put in place, and starting to pay attention. Especially now that we are seeing the establishment turn on Trump, things will start to come out in the open because we are forcing them to show their hand. As 2016 progresses, I think people are going to finally start waking up, whether they support Trump or not. The establishment are in panic mode, and they are going to show their power and people will finally see it.
