Less surprised than I was when Bernie won Michigan.

Same. But I would be surprised.

Okay, maybe Mike Johnson is a competent parliamentarian.

JCL, do you ever actually expect your favored candidate not to win? Just curious.

Not so much as John Boehner would be.

I don't know if shocked is the right word, but I would be very surprised.  The media coverage for Cruz over the last week has been very poor, with the perception that his campaign is in a desperate state, in its dying throes.  Trump really should win, and even if he underperforms a bit on Election Day, I'd still expect a small 3-8 point victory.

Borderline shocked, I guess. It wouldn't be a total shock due to the lack of polling.

Yes actually - Cruz has fallen that fast.

I expected Mitt to lose in 2012 in the general

No; one poll had him winning there by 16 points, and a number of others have him in striking distance of Trump.
