Cruz didn’t spend any money in NH and came in third. He beat Jeb Bush who outspent him 62-1!

Dunno. Maybe we have to invoke the New Hampshire Exception Rule?

Likewise, I appreciate your thoughts and the kind manner in which you replied.

Voting for any politician is a risk, no matter who it is. We've seen over and over how they lie to get votes. We must all do the best job we can to select the candidate we agree with on the biggest issues, and hope for the best.

I'll cast my lot with Trump; at least he won't be in any donors pockets. I'm at peace with the decision. I assume your man is Cruz, and I wish you peace with your decision as well.

That is my point, let the establishment candidates spend their capital attacking the insurgent candidates and each other. The insurgents shouldn’t attack each other; it will just create hard feelings between the Trump and Cruz supporters and help one of the establishment candidates eventually prevail.

Thanks!

An exit poll.

I suppose a “very conservative” person in NH is a bit different than a “very conservative” person in, say, Texas.

I appreciate the link and the information.

As mentioned in the article, that SC poll is ancient.

Speaking of Ted Cruz, he and Rubio, are the only ones who would support Rebecca, by not allowing her to be killed.

Rebecca is now a lawyer, and has five children of her own.

CHOOSE LIFE!

Trumpeteers said that in Iowa and its to be expected coming out of your little win in a blue state but South Carolina will put an end to your reckless speculation. Trump could just as likely face the same fate as Buchanan did after carrying New Hampshire.

Should Cruz carry South Carolina, he will have won two out of the first three primary states, severely wounding both Trump and Rubio. That's why he should be considered the front-runner.

That's the first thing you've said that makes any sense, Mr. Klein.

Trump will have the Tea Party, he will need to reach towards women or minorities.
