Regardless, he only got one more delegate than Trump. Chew on that.,
While true Cruz is ahead by one delegate, this loss... and that is all we can call it. The loss by Trump has forced the issue, almost everyone on here who has supported Trump has said he would win every state. They have also said that, in those states he would win in a landslide. Yesterdays Hawkeye Cauci showed that even with the increased turnout, a yuge sign of a Trump win, he lost to Cruz. He almost lost to Rubio as well. While I don’t think this loss will do Trump in completely, it very certainly bursts the facade of invincibility that many have attributed to his candidacy.
I think personally that there is a very big chance for Christie and possibly Rubio to challenge Trump in New Hampshire. I think Cruz will do ok not great but ok. Then it moves to SC; and if one of the moderates beat Trump, and Cruz does ok in New Hampshire. Then we can see Cruz possibly challenge the ability of Trump to win the nomination in SC. Then we might see a repeat of last night.
So in the total delegate count, an 8 to 7 separation doesn’t mean much, however the WIN for Cruz and the LOSS for Trump could mean a lot.
