Good. With Trump slapped down, hopefully this'll knock the wind out of his reality show and let the real republicans run for the highest office.Lothar wrote:Trending: #PeakTrump
Cruz and Rubio both with very strong showings.
Just goes to show what a classy guy he really is. Now take Crazy Bernies statement of wanting a recount and you can see the difference between the two. Cruz won because he came across as evangelical. I don't think his "Glory to God" statement will pull many votes in NH.And, we finished second, and I want to tell you something, I’m just honored, I’m really honored.”
why? I mean people suggested as much about Obama, and he won rather easily the 2nd time around.Spidey wrote:So Rubio is making promises he can’t keep, well I guess if either he or Uncle Bernie gets elected, we will see 4 years of lame duck.
This is the same point I made to a friend last night. I think Cruz has a better chance, following the traditional campaign strategy: start out deep in your base then gradually move to the center. Even though a lot of Republicans hate Cruz he has definitely shown an ability to move the government (remember those shutdowns?), though that's rather tyrannical. One of the reasons I picked Bush/Rubio early on is because I see them as moderate — but that doesn't get your base pumped up (not that anyone is getting the GOP pumped, but that is beside the point).callmeslick wrote:Here's why: his positon on immigration is absolutely HATED by about half of the GOP voters, and I don't think they are getting on board, unless he radically backpedals, which will kill him in the General.

oh, completely the same as anticipating a magical event following a process which isn't clear at all. Saying he has similarities to early Hitler rallies by people WHO WERE THERE isn't even close to Bachmann's lunacy. Strap on those ideological blinders a bit looser, they're getting to your brain.woodchip wrote:Yeah slick, kinda like the nut jobs on the left saying Trump will be the next Hitler...aka the 90 year old jewish liberals.
there is verifiable evidence that Cruz distributed flyers that were in violation of state election law, suggesting the non-voters would be publicly identified, and evidence that his callers were reaching out to Carson voters to tell them that Carson had dropped out. So, yes, he did sort of 'steal' the vote, in a political dirty tricks sense. To the Donald: welcome to US electoral politics.Lothar wrote:"Ted Cruz didn't win Iowa, he stole it. That is why all of the polls were so wrong and why he got far more votes than anticipated. Bad!" - Donald Trump, via twitter and facebook (his verified accounts).
Dude is melting down. Good! Let's get this clown out of the race.

No, I caught you a number of time telling untruths or at the very least distorting reality. The latest was the one about low incidences of voter fraud. Citing only discovered cases of fraud as proof ignores the fact that most cases are never discover as evidence by the NYC DOI report.callmeslick wrote:I'm HONEST on EVERYTHING. Someday, you'll grasp that.
Well, Trump did say he would come to Iowa and buy a farm in his concession speach. Hopefully, he already bought the farm!Lothar wrote:"Ted Cruz didn't win Iowa, he stole it.

It showed that you would never know if it did. Stop trying to be devious.callmeslick wrote:the NY DOJ report showed NO EVIDENCE of any election EVER being CLOSE to affected. Swing away.
Spidey, you might be right, as a general observation. I'm just on my best behavior here.
