Very true.

65% of the NH GOP voters voted for someone other than Trump.

Trump is leading by 16 points in SC. The poll was taken at the end of January, so does not include any bounce Cruz got from IA or any bounce Trump got from his huge win in NH. But, a FL poll taken AFTER the Iowa caucus showed that Cruz was still lagging far behind Trump in that state, and didn’t receive much, if any, bounce from his IA victory.

Yesterday, Cruz held a rally of 200 people, while Trump rallied about 5,000.

It is entirely possible that Trump’s lead in SC will continue, and may even increase because of the momentum from his totally lopsided victory in NH become apparent.

The Gilmore bet is sure bet, the Cruz/Trump one I would not take either side. You probably can’t get any decent odds though on Gilly.

Pac's have been going after Cruz all the time.

Cruz own words on his lies about b1 visas and eminent domain which he favored in Texas Senate debate

How old are you, 8?

That’s typical 8 year-old boy bathroom humor.

Trump your guy?

They’re hoping the newly added Faux News debate will allow them to take out Trump or Cruz or both.

All house money is riding on Megan Kelly, she’s already got her payoff with the 10 million dollar book deal.

She will be in full attack slut mode.

Who has made the claim Trump is perfect?

And yet we can traverse the forum and see comment after comment about Ted always being a true conservative. Faultless...

You tell me which one has a messianic complex.

What the Establishment Republicans SHOULD be asking, “Can Herself and The Bern be stopped?”

But of course, they would not understand the question or why it would even be asked.

Not until the General they can’t.

However, I admit being unfamiliar with the Super Del situation, etc so ... who knows.

In 2012, Newt Gingrich won the primary but was defeated by Mitt Romney in the battle to reach the general election.

I'll never forget nor forgive Matt Drudge and his GOPe accomplices for his "Bloody Thursday" trashing of Newt Gingrich back in 2012 which effectively ended Newt's campaign. Watch who Drudge supports or slams on his page and you'll quickly see who the GOPe is supporting.

The GOPe has a nuke it could use to stop Cruz. Cruz is zero threat to the selection of a nominee, and the GOPe actually wants Cruz to get more delegates. In this contest, Cruz is part of the anti-Trump faction.
