2016: "A rebirth of electoral conservatism at the national level or its death knell?"

While Rubio and Cruz shine, Trump continues his clown show (John Podhoretz) from the New York Post
"Rubio and Cruz are losing to Trump. The GOP electorate is surrendering its commitment to conservative ideas in its desire for a strong man who makes ridiculous promises about making us great again that he has no idea how to fulfill. The next six weeks are either going to represent a rebirth of electoral conservatism at the national level or its death knell."
My prediction: death knell.  Podheretz is one of the most strident right-wing pundits out there and it is getting VERY LATE in the day for someone other than Trump to get the nomination.  Cruz still has a chance -- but the so-called establishment candidates seem fully poised to nullify each other.
