Donald Trump was the clear favorite in today’s winner-take-all Arizona primary, even before the Brussels terrorist attacks. The immigration issue and the flood of early voters favors him, as does the fact that some of those early voters will have cast ballots for Marco Rubio before he dropped out last Tuesday night. If they had known Rubio would no longer be a candidate, many of those voters might have gone with Cruz.
But polls have been tricky and often erratic this year (think Michigan and the surprise win of Bernie Sanders). For example, the latest poll showing a 14 point Trump lead appears to oversample Phoenix voters (59 percent of state’s population vs. 73 percent of those polled). Trump outperfoms his statewide average in the Phoenix area. The Washington Post reports that “Cruz could definitely score an upset in Arizona.” If that happens or Cruz comes very close here will be the relevant factors, according to the Post.
Cruz has a superior ground game. Neutral observers say his team is a lot more organized than Trump. His state director elected many Republican members of the legislature.
It’s a closed primary, meaning only Republicans can vote. Trump has struggled in closed primaries.
Cruz has scored a bunch of late endorsements: Rep. Matt Salmon announced his support last night.
Cruz is still perceived as strong on border security.

We’ve been through that Reagan-Carter argument ad nauseum. There is absolutely no parallel to Reagan-Carter and Trump-Clinton. And Trumpnis absolutely no Reagan.
Ah, I see, the argument has no basis, because you say so.
Very clever.
I am sure Carter and president Kerry agree. ..........
Oh really...now it’s blame other candidates....same o’ same o’ response to anything that Trump brings on himself.
It’s a nice touch and I commend them. Don’t get your panties in a twist over nothing. You Cruzbots are sooooo mellow dramatic.
Oooo, infantile snarker can dish it out but he can’t take it.
Maybe he shouldn’t have dished it out in the first place.
Okay, bye.
Good bye. Arguing with a child is not my idea of a productive evening.
Yet still no data to back up that position. Thanks for your “input.”
I gave two full sets of true info that you want to ignore because they don’t bolster your foolish argument.
President Reagan, and president Kerry, and yet you keep on sounding foolish.
Check.
And mate.
Yet you’ll just keep butting your head into that wall.
Don’t get mad at me, your post is there to see quite clearly in the original post, you state he could not win a national election. I simply pointed out, he is currently, very much winning a national election.
If you meant he couldn’t win a general election, so be it, but that is not what you said.
Do NOT donate to any group raising money for Donald Trump. You can donate to his campaign if you want but the only money that goes to him is money donated at his website.

Of course they do....Trump knocks on everyone's door via the media.... every time he orchestrates a media story he's banging at the door.
That's just nonsense talking there. People vote for Cruz because they want him to be President.... It's as simple as that. Sheesh...there is no candidate chosen yet....
Too far gone now for reason and have been for some time now. They are in lock step with the Piper.
(You can also watch him in action in this short youtube video clip, and see for yourself.)

Sadly I agree....it's been difficult to watch. I miss the real Freepers, too many have left that made things interesting and news worthy. It seems now to just be a cheerleading site for Trump. I miss the good news once you could find here.
