The pages of the political calendar are turning relentlessly. Yesterday, GOP voters went to the polls in Arizona and Utah. If things turn out as expected, Donald Trump's path to the Republican nomination will continue unabated. Yet there are many variables still in play, and there's no guarantee that Trump will reach the 1,237 delegates he needs prior to the GOP Convention.
