Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio need a pep talk from Herm Edwards: “You play to win the game. You play to win the game.”

Trump’s insistence at last Saturday’s debate that George W. Bush “lied” to America in order to foment the Iraq war was important because it confirms the two big Republican fears about Trump: that he isn’t actually conservative, but that he is a conspiracy-minded crank.

Bush’s is +67.)
