I keep expecting voters to coalesce around Rubio much as they did for Romney the last time, but Cruz has some serious staying power.

The RNC does need to be careful, though. Now that it is openly anti-Trump and SuperPacs like Kasich's are starting to run "very mean" ads, he's starting to mumble about a third-party run. Which, of course, would mean Hillary as president.

And if he doesn't run third-party, they have to answer the question as to how much they let him be involved in the convention and, to a lesser extent, the run-up to the general. At this point he's probably done enough to earn a speaking slot at the convention. If he wins a few primary states, it's probably in prime time. I would imagine that's the worst fear for GOP operatives out there.
