Last night the Cruz and Kasich camps formed the Cru-sich Alliance to stop Donald Trump.
The two campaigns announced the development on Twitter.
Kasich and Cruz campaigns released concurrent statements Sunday agreeing Cruz will focus on Indiana, and Kasich on Oregon and New Mexico.

Unfortunately, the Cru-sich alliance backfired.
MSNBC reporter Tony Dokoupil found that all of the Kasich voters he spoke with in Indiana had voted for Trump today.
