4:11 am
give me a snapshot who -- where did he win and who did he win with and who is supporting him? >> i won with lower income voters, higher income voters in some places. so the trump coalition bounces all over the place, depending on the states, which is one of the things that trying to come to terms with here and certainly his opponents are trying to come to terms with it because ted cruz thought with evangelicals i'll be able to make inroads and he didn't. >> what canect moving forward? tonight. will they coalesce on trump donald trump or double down on the resistance? >> there is a choice for republicans to make. do they start to move behind donald trump or do they have aovement that has to snap into quick action because if he is going to be stopped, he has to denied the 1,237 e only way to do that is to start beating him up so badly on these contests that are coming
4:12 am
then marco rubio or teds the person who can win these winner take all states and amass enough delegates and then goes to the convention and vention. the challenge with that is, a, they have to fight fast and furiously. and some republicans may not be ready for that. there are two alternatives now, john kasich making it a third and who knows if ben carson adding another, that splits the anti-trump votes and it's an to have, it's messier in terms of the vote. you know, john kasich hadn't been in the race, marco rubio might have done well enough in v. to beat donald trump.e of these candidates out there really does change the landscape of things. >> i'm wondering now, after super tuesday, can we look at two-man race and the other man being ted cruz? >> you could, except marco rubio continues to be the hopes of the mainstream
4:13 am
coming to terms with the idea uld be the nominee of the party that they love. and so while the rubio path to the nomination is now a path, very narrow that he must walk, it sustained or continues to exist because there are republicans who really hope they can use -- that he can do better and get to the convention and have a situation where it can be competitive and where somehow, perhaps even some magic, they can deny trump the nomination. so he did not -- he only got one a great record. but because there is this real desire to beat donald trump, he is allowed to fight anotherother kind of candidate wouldn't be. >> let's talk about the democrats. hillary clinton did well, as expected. you know, bernie sanders maybeterrible. but, you know, hillary clinton definitely is way ahead in the delegates.
4:14 am
continues to raise money. so i'm wondering ise race? can we write him off? or do you think he will live to fight another day? >> well, he won in enough states thate him off. he also also has a very strong message and people who are liking him and he has a lot of money so hard to written him t problem to him than winning fewer states than hillary clinton and being behind in the delegate count, he still seems to be incapable of doing very well in thean community, has that is a part of the democratic coalition. you can't be a democratic nominee and not have that kind of vote. so it's one of the reasons why e'll have a tough time winning, but it also is a flaw in his candidacy if he is going to be the nominee for the party. >> john dickerson, moderator oftion," thank you very much. >> sure thing. we will have much more n "cbs this morning" when we talk with bob schieffer about last night's results. still ahead, return to earth. astronaut scott kelly has a warm
