Predicition: If Trump continues to win, there will be at least two candidates left at the convention

I don't foresee the GOP letting the convention being turned into a normal coronation as modern political conventions have become in the past half-century. This has all the signs of being a drag down, tumble, dirty convention of old.

And it won't be John "Least Insane" Kasich as the Trump-alternative, either. 80% chance it's Rubio, although if Cruz somehow continues to hang on, I could see an eat-your-vegatables moment for the GOP establishment and forcing themselves to embrace the caustic Slappy the Dummy.
