Reading some threads, I see Cruz folks starting to sound like they're starting to buy the Trump Big Lie that Trump "won" the debate, and knocked Cruz out. Don't believe it for a second.
I can't be specific what I'm referring to. We'll just have to say it's interesting data from "a friend."
What I am seeing is national, not relating to Iowa specifically. And it's not a cross-section of Republicans, but it probably is a pretty good barometer of conservatives.
Based on what I'm seeing, Rubio is going absolutely, positively nowhere, and Trump is going downhill. Pretty big. Maybe not the final implosion, but MUCH bigger than just the day-to-day noise.
Combine this with the fact that we're not seeing any surge in voting registration in Iowa*, indicating that (sadly) Trump is NOT motivating huge new blocks of voters, and I don't know how he can win... unless Cruz people get disheartened by the nonsense being pumped out by Politico, CNN, and all the other left-wing Trump lovers.
(*Again, this is not a tell-all. Last-minute registrations and simply activating existing registered voters could be plenty to bring about astounding voter turnout. But it is a dog that's not barking. New registrations have in the past correlated with surges in caucus participation.)
keep dreaming. Even if Trump loses Iowa it’s over for you and you know it.
Nice desperate leftist tactics of trying to scare the voters into voting too..great job..it will backfire
secret secrets are no fun........
There is a lot of FUD being put out in an attempt to discourage those who are sticking to their constitutional conservative values.
I was surprised to find out this morning about TRUMP’S (PEACE BE UPON HIM) sensitivity about his ABNORMALLY STUBBY FINGERS. He’s personally very insecure apparently.

Well I have a friend too, so there.
Hope sprangs external.

DONALD TRUMP [on Larry King Show (2009), referring to the then newly elected communist president]: "Well, I really like him. I think that he's working very hard. He's trying to rebuild our reputation throughout the world. I mean, we really have lost a lot of reputation in the world. The previous administration [GW Bush] was a total disaster, a total catastrophe."
And I'm not saying I agree with everything he's doing. I do agree with what they're doing with the banks. Whether they FUND THEM or NATIONALIZE them, it doesn't matter, but you have to keep the banks going."
Thank you. Cruz supporters such as Jim Robinson and you and me must not lose heart in face of all the liberal slime being thrown at Cruz.
You know when I was in my teens, a just back from the Nam, I did a little acid... saw strange things, scared the heck out of me... temporary insanity...
But what’s YOUR excuse?
But does your friend have a rumor to share?
You and I. Not you and me.
We Cruz supporters must improve our word power.
I guess that is why Cruz has now started taking on Rubio. It looks more like Cruz has decided that he better battle Rubio for 2nd place.
Thank You
Cruz is desperate and feels the heat of Marco lol. he is reverting to vote shaming- a desperate leftist tactic. really sad I almost feel sorry for him but I remember he has a wife who is a big exec at Goldman Sachs. he will be fine
Yeah, come on Ray ! Don’t be holding out on us now !
Information to be released in 24 business hours by MUFON.
You’re right. Let’s stand strong. Cruz or lose.
My senses that Rubio is going to overtake cruz .
CNN is saying this morning that Cruz is changing the focus of his campaign these last few days to focus on Macro Rubio. Apparently they are worried that Ted may lose 2nd place to Rubio.
