I would say it is going to be Cruz or Rubio with Christie still a plausible dark horse. I don’t think anyone else is going anywhere, including Trump. But we’ll know better after NH.

As someone who leans more towards Cruz than Trump, I think it's WAAAAAY too early to call it for Cruz.

What is this...the 360th time that we've heard that Trump has peaked?

“Cruz is more electable in November, has better organization, and will attract both opposition and establishment GOP voters.”

Its utterly delusional to think Cruz will attract opposition voters. And no way he approaches Trumps ability in that area.

Speculation. Do some research and you will see that Trump is aligned exactly as the past eventual nominees have been.

I want Cruz to be the nominee, but I have to admit it will be a hell of a come back if he is.

Trump is dominating everywhere except Iowa. But today there are a couple new polls out with Trump back on top there.

Right now, barring a major scandal, I don’t see a way the Trump steamroller will be stopped in the primaries.

This qualifies as Breaking News?

Not one vote has been cast. We all make the mistake of falling for these polls, none of which can be taken at face value, nor absolute truth. We have a long way to go; keep your powder dry, and refrain from undue optimism for any candidate.

We all like Cruz a lot, but Ted will be ineffective compared to The Wrecking Ball Donald Trump, bare knuckled street fighter with brass balls who will enjoy taking on the Washington Cartel, and flattening our enemies, foreign and domestic.

I want a bully protecting America from the invaders while conducting the business of building our economy.

..."Its utterly delusional to think Cruz will attract opposition voters"....

He already is taking them from Hillary!....Fun to watch too! So it's not at all delusional.

And Cruz won’t get the black and Hispanic votes that Trump gets, nor the Indies and not even all of the GOP base.

I want a candidate who respects and values the constitution and our conservative ideals.

Donald Trump had zero credibility from a historical perspective on either of these issues.

Ted Cruz has a definitive record on both.

It’s really an easy decision if we are truly being honest about wanting a solid conservative candidate.

No he isn’t, but Trump has and shall take even MORE than the 20% of them, that he has now.

You are allowing your emotions and biases get the best of you and not facing reality.
