Seriously, at what point does Paul Manafort start fighting back? - Because Ted Cruz's delegate wrangler Ken Cuccinelli got ten of the thirteen statewide delegates up for grabs in Virginia today. As usual, the delegates are bound for the first Presidential ballot (so the hard delegate totals don't change) - but they're also only bound to the first Presidential ballot, which means that Cruz will have a say in everything else. Including future Presidential ballots, which possibility still remains a thing, despite the constant drumbeat to the contrary for the last week or so.

And this is definitely a victory for Cuccinelli and a defeat for Manafort. How do we know this? Because even Trump's Virginia guy doesn't get to be a delegate to the convention.
