    Has this ever happened before? A candidate that is officially eliminated announcing a VP?

      How is he officially eliminated? The nomination happens at the convention.

        in that he cannot get to the 1237

        forget that for now. Has it ever happened, to your knowledge, that a candidate who cannot reach the magic number before the convention has announce his VP? Serious question.

          No it has never happened but there never has been a candidate as peculiar as Cruz either.
          First the Kasich/Cruz fiaso & now this. If Cruz plans on dining with Fiorino he
          better bring a food taster along. Never seen someone with as much need for relevance
          as Fiorina, I wonder if she will last longer with the Cruz campaign than she did with McCain.

            Ted, you dumb ass, if you were irrelevant before, you are definitely now having signed Carly as your VP.

                    I think in recent history, magic number or not, VP's are typically not named until after the convention is over altogether. But perhaps way back when P/VP ran together. Not sure. It's certainly unusual. This whole election is unusual, so what the hell.

                      Desperation last shot at saving face. Cruz is just wasting everyones time much like Bernie is doing with Hillary..... Let's just start the HILLARY VS TRUMP show.

                      Trump and Hillary are now taking shots at each other and showing complete disrespect and disregard to others running against them. That's funny but that tells you something right there...

                      Trump will probably hit the 1237 in the end anyways.. Indiana got next up for Trump..

                        Cruz/Carly are running for which presidency?

                        Surely not the one they are mathematically eliminated from right?

                        Swept in 5 states badly, eliminated from contention....next day picks running mate. Can't make it up....Ol Lyin' Ted's got a funny sense of humor

                                In related news, a contested convention is now an underdog on Betfair Exchange.....It was at like -300 to -200 for the past few months

                                    I can't think of another candidate that has named a VP before locking up the nomination.

                                    Fiorina is a horrible choice as well. She doesn't bring anything to the table at all.

                                            I am going against the grain here. I kinda like her. She is smart and knows her talking points. The downside .. she sounds like a female version on Rubio. Pretending like you know everything is a turnoff. In politics it makes you sound like a phony.

                                            Trump is as close to a perfect candidate as you can get. Beholden to no one and says what is on his mind. Last night was a great night for the USA.

                                                        Fiorina is a horrible choice as well. She doesn't bring anything to the table at all.
                                                        She brings a vagina.

                                                        I think it's a good choice for Cruz but how is he in a position to name a VP without a sizable chunk of delegates?

                                                        The Cruz/Fiorina connection looks a little weird though if you dig into it.
