‘Now it’s out there that Cruz’s mother voted in Canada, which is an acceptance of citizenship there.’
Last I heard Breitbart’s article was ‘drive-by’, debunked. Is this a recent update? Do you have a link?
The thing is, it's usually the firewall state for the front-runner, ie it's dropout time for the also-rans.
So could just as easily be The Quisling Prince's Waterloo: "Hey, I'm 3rd guys! In a primary state both Pappy and GW won twice! Don't you love me now?"
I really don’t like that news. Not sure I trust such weird support for Jeb, but assuming it’s correct ...
Cruz needs to deliver a knock-out blow on his eligibility.
I’m very skeptical. For example, Rubio. He’s not in my ‘top two’, but he’s TEN times better than Jeb, isn’t he? And people are sick of seeing the Bush/Clinton names in the White House — too much like royal dynasties.
I hear the Bush family has a lot of friends in SC?
If Jeb is growing that quickly in S.C. [presumably through Lindsey Gramnesty’s endorsement], then he would overtake Cruz and possibly even Trump there.
I could imagine that ‘New York Values’ might have resonated in S.C. But that state is weird too, isn’t it? The ever-electable Lindsey Gramnesty, an acquired taste of the locals there. [Shrugging.]
Yep. The establishment will egg on conservatives to form a circular firing squad and kill each other off again. It works for them every time. Trump and Cruz supporters will see each other as the enemy and destroy chances for the real enemy, the establishment, to be defeated.
But we’re stupid like that.
Newspaper friends you mean? I have had trouble understanding that state for some time now.
Reuters doesn’t have the excellent track record that the Des Moines register poll does.
Yep. Me to.
I see 33% going to the establishment if they call on the candidates to consolidate. In the meantime trump and Cruz supporters are killing each other off.
Lindsey could have been primaried in 2014, that should have been a top job for any national Tea Party movement. But it's an insular state, a lot like Arizona and Colorado - they don't take kindly to people who don't take kindly.
If Bush were to run 2nd behind Trump, wow then it's on like Donkey Kong in FL and Super Tuesday.
Divide and conquer.
FWIW William (B.J.) Clinton was only 3% in the polls in February 1992. Just sayin.
IF Trump can take Iowa and New Hampshire the numbers will change. But, I believe that 1. Iowa will go Cruz, with Trump number 2. New Hampshire go Christie with Trump #2. Sounth Carolina Trump # 1, Cruz #2, Nevada, Trump #1 Cruze Number 2. Lets see if I’m right.
I’m surprised by this Bush surge. I would have thought Christie would move up or Rubio not Bush.
Cruz is just as close to Christie as he is Trump here.
Some viable opposition to Trump.
Iowa close to a tie. They’ll split delegates.
Trump wins NH
Trump wins SC
Trump wins NV
It’s what the numbers say.
I find it funny the headline says "holds lead", as if a 14-point lead is close.
You definitely won't be here. Your other predictions are within the realm of reason as of January 17, 2016, but not this one.
I still think Trump's going to win Iowa, New Hampshire, etc.
It looks like “Surging Ted” should start looking over his shoulder at Yeb. Isn’t it funny how real people didn’t think as much about the comments made by those on the stage as the media pundits told them to?
