Cruz beat Trump and Carson fair and square. It's perfectly ok to tweet a post from CNN. If you have an issue, take it up with CNN. They published the original story.
Trump screwing other men's wives and boasting about it is another matter altogether. Thoroughly disgusting. What a slimy creep Trump is. Honorable? NOT!

Poor SmokingJoe, so many places to run and nowhere to hide.

A piddling 3% margin for Iowa’s favored son is hardly a “clobbering”.

Frankly, I expected Cruz to do *far* better than he actually did.

/insert phony chuckle here

Yeah, and we notice how corruption makes you happy.

Funny, that.

I guess we just have to reconcile ourselves to Iowa’s inevibility of picking our nominee.

Poor DoughtyOne. He swore Trump would win Iowa. Now he is experiencing the bitter taste of defeat. And it's made him lose his mind.

It's a clobbering when your candidate is leading by 11 points just before the vote is taken and then loses by 4 points. That's a 15-point swing.
The New York papers are having fun with El Trumpo. LMAO!

Do you know why I don’t say much on these threads, especially by way of gloat or crowing?

The possibility of future humiliation keeps my tongue still.

If, by chance, NH crushes Cruz utterly, should I then ping you for my own fake “chuckling”?

Just as Jesus is often judged by His followers, so is Cruz, fair or not.

You are not doing Cruz any favors.

Wow! A lot of people are going to see these at the checkout lines.

I don’t know what is more entertaining, watching you squirm knowing Ted corrupted the election process, or watching you try to turn Ted’s stolen election into a fairy tale where good prince Ted wins the hand of the public he just screwed over.

People like yourself do much to poison Cruz’s well.

You would be wise to consider that, before you post more disingenuous chuckling.

There may come a day when non-Cruz supporters have their hand on the lever, in the general election...and they will remember people like you.

The more you learn about the Iowa caucus process, the less the old USSR election process looks corrupt.

So, if Trump sweeps NH, should we come here and bray like childish, petty, idiotic jackasses, or should we humbly thank God for the win?

CNN did NOT say Carson quit. Cruz campaign twisted it. And none of Trump’s terrible actions excuse Cruz lying.

Seems more like a circus than a caucus.

The Simpsons did an episode wherein mythical Springfield was first to vote.

Very sobering, educational and funny.

A win, no matter how gotten, is all that matters.

I would take a good look at what the winning team is doing here now, and try very hard to not represent my candidate like they are theirs.

I would also hope that my guy didn’t have to stoop to the sorts of things their guy did.

And yes, I do think thanks would be in order.

In post #16, you stated that Cruz was leading in every poll, but here, you offer a bizarre calculation in which Trump suffers a 15 point drop.

Make up my mind.

I should look that episode up.

The amount of electioneering that takes place at the caucusing centers...

This Cruz/Rubio vs Carson thing wouldn’t have happened if there was ANY integrity to the process.
