Was there more than just Indiana in Cruz' decision? [View all]

[kay1864]

Here's the deal:

- Cruz knew the math going in.
- For weeks he's known the only viable path was a contested convention.
- So for weeks he's been gathering "2nd ballot delegates" (Trump delegates who would vote for Cruz after the first ballot).
- Even if Trump had 1237 going into Cleveland, Cruz had a couple of "dirty trick" options.
- The Indiana vote was no surprise (results differed from the polls by only 2-4%).

So why the sudden concession? Could the Anonymous threat to reveal the "5 prostitutes evidence" have been the final straw?

His concession doesn't make sense to me.
