Based on what it says in that article (and even without that, one can imagine this happening, a-la Operation Chaos initiated by Rush Limbaugh for a Democrat primary) I can see Dems voting on the Republican ticket for Trump just to act as agent saboteur.

From the article (emphasis added):
Quote
Among Cuyahoga County voters who requested absentee ballots by mail or voted early in person this year:

15.6 percent of affiliated Democrats have requested Republican ballots.
About 1.3 percent of affiliated Republicans have requested Democrat ballots.
Nearly 24,700 unaffiliated voters requested a party ballot.
Of those, 14,700 voters chose Democrat ballots and 10,000 chose Republican ballots.
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!

Another reason not to vote for Trump (?)
Quote
@kolhaolam WASHINGTON: Ben Carson says he was promised a position in Donald Trump's admin; at least in an "advisory capacity," if Trump is elected.

Can we get it from the horse's mouth?

With the entire lineup out there, I would say that "fan" is quite a strong word to use for any of the bunch.

Ben Carson was obviously not doing well for a reason. (Not that his endorsement changes much IMHO)

If there's an organizer to this, just like Limbaugh did to the Dems (in Ohio) then you might be right, but if it's up to individuals, they might vote for Trump and believe that he is the most beatable.

I just googled Operation Chaos and see that Limbaugh's proposing it again for Bernie (as I've been advocating) see http://www.breitbart.com/video/2016/01/11/limbaugh-we-may-have-to-reactivate-operation-chaos-but-this-time-for-bernie/

I think Dan should put a DDMS post to vote for his man.

He is too busy trying to figure out how much his miles are worth.

He was never trying to win there. He was just trying to get enough votes to ensure Rubio doesn't win

Seems like Rubio is done.
Who do you think you are fooling? You think you are going to pull a quick one on your Creator? Good luck with that.
