SL: Cruz has no shot of becoming GOP nominee before convention

How bad was Ted Cruz's night in New York yesterday? REALLY, REALLY bad. Let's take a look at a couple of facts:

*         He won a total of ZERO delegates.

*         He even managed to lose<http://thehill.com/blogs/ballot-box/gop-primaries/276963-cruz-loses-to-ben-carson-in-new-york-district> to Ben Carson in a congressional district, despite the fact that Carson has been out of the race for weeks.

*         And last night certainly not least, this tweet<https://twitter.com/joshledermanAP/status/722769536655761409> says it all:

"There's no other way to put it: last night was an absolute disaster for Cuban-American, Canadian-born Ted Cruz. Normally, losing to a candidate who hasn't been in the race for weeks or winning a total of zero delegates would be bad enough, but the true blow to Cruz and his campaign was the fact that he officially has no mathematical way of becoming the GOP's nominee before the convention. Sad!" - TX Spox
