The only group Cruz won in NH was ‘evangelicals’ and he only won them by one (1) per centage point.
Eduardo can run all the clever ads his frat house brain trust comes up with,cars long as suckers return his notices.
But SC is going to be another Trump + Romp= Tromp.
What rhymes with Cruz? Lose. Get ready to lose again, Tedheads: It won’t hurt as much next time.

Chuckle!
We have a Trumpbot clown here.
Chew on these facts.

# 1. New Hampshire is the least religious state in the entire country

# 2. New Hampshire is the 5th most liberal state in the entire country.

# 3. Ted Cruz getting 3rd after spending just $580K vs. $32M for Bush is huge. Has more $$$ for SC than most opponents combined.

Why Ted Cruz is now the Republican front-runner

By PHILIP KLEIN Donald Trump may have come out of New Hampshire with the victory, but Sen. Ted Cruz has emerged as the Republican front-runner.
Though Trump's victory in New Hampshire was no doubt impressive, the electorate of independent voters and super high turnout was tailor-made for him, whereas Cruz didn't put substantial effort into winning the state — where very conservative candidates don't typically do as well. He is currently in position to win third here, with votes still outstanding.

As the race moves to South Carolina, however, Cruz has a ground game in place and the electorate is much more tailored to his strengths.

In Iowa, Cruz dominated Trump among “very conservative” voters, who made up 40 percent of the electorate, and evangelicals, who made up 62 percent of voters. But when it came to New Hampshire, evangelicals only comprised 25 percent of the electorate and “very conservative” voters dropped to 27 percent.


The South Carolina electorate is much closer to the Iowa electorate. In 2012, evangelicals were 65 percent of the electorate and very conservative voters were 36 percent of the electorate.

Furthermore, in Iowa, Cruz had to fend off Ben Carson, Mike Huckabee and Rick Santorum, who were all competing for similar voters. Carson received 9 percent in Iowa, and though Huckabee didn't perform well, he did serve as an anti-Cruz attack dog to evangelicals. Now, Huckabee and Santorum are out, and Carson enters South Carolina greatly hobbled.
