Let’s not count our chickens in NH just yet. NH was always going to be, will always be, a tough sell for a Southern social conservative.

I’ll be quite happy with a second place in NH or a very close third (especially if Christie is in second). The really interesting races at this point are SC and Nevada. Can Ted’s authentic boots stomp out the competition in Nevada or will the glitz of other campaigns play so well in Las Vegas that he won’t get any traction?

Will his strong showing with Iowa evangelicals play well in South Carolina? Just how accurate are those Dixie polls with Trump leading in double digits?

Didn’t say Cruz would win NH, said he would torpedo Trump— i.e. try to make Trump lose. Two losses would be devastating for Trump.

I read Limbaugh’s take on this attack by Birther Trump- and I think that’s his opinion— Trump is facing the possibility of 2 defeats, and that’s what prompted him to lose his marbles.

Cruz doesn’t have to win NH. He pretty much has to win in Iowa.

Southern social conservative.

Cruz is of Cuban extraction and spent the first four years of his life in Canuckistan, the son of (likely) two Canadian citizens. He then graduated from Harvard university and campaigned as a Latino in Texas.

Cruz is as "southern" or "Texan" as any other Ivy League immigrant from the north or foreign lands-- which means, not at all.
