Numbers don’t lie and they are pretty rational.

Yup! Trump won every demographic according to exit polls. Pretty devastating for the Cruzers who think the libertarians and conservatives were going to rally around Cruz in New Hampshire!

Cult members? Not so much.

I agree with you entirely :-).

With that logic any enthusiastic supporter of any candidate ever is a member of a cult

You won’t need to go to hell ; Trump will bring hell to you.

No, YOU'LL bring hell to me with incessant whining, at least when you have the guts to ping me :-)

Well, that certain someone isn’t Trump... We were absolutely flooded with polls in New Hampshire.

Liberal love the idea of touch back amnesty, kick them out and then let all the non criminals back in legally.

Liberals LOVE that and will vote for it in a heart beat. Why did Trump carry liberals overwhelmingly in liberal NH?

This could explain the Trump campaign's decision to play nice, but it may be too little, too late.

got it exactly backwards agin. Losing campaigns go negative. "Going Negative" is the "Hail Mary" play of politics. When you are losing you go negative as the last hope in turning the situation around.

“They did a pre caucus poll ( before the Cruz campaign text ) and Carson got 10% of the vote, exactly what he got in the caucus.

Carson didn’t lose one vote.”

Wait....so NOW poll = votes?

Because Poll X said Carson got 10%, and the end totals showed that, that means polling = accurate. Carson “lost no votes”?

You guys in NH were screeching that because of Iowa, polls are completely inaccurate and that Cruz’s support is not being documented properly, and that he would shock the world.

No, cult members are those that once they are shown facts Trump is not a conservative, support him anyway.

Touch back amnesty? No problem.
Government run health care? No problem.
Banning weapons? No problem
Tax increases? No problem
Shoot a guy on 5th ave? No problem

That my friend, is a cult,

I sense nervousness in the cult. So do I. That is why you cultists for Cruz are so busy racing around here feverishly lying, hoping against hope, that maybe, finally, this time the lies will take effect.

The cult. Funny. I’ve wondered for awhile now why a person who is demonstrably ineligible for the office he seeks is nevertheless pushed continuously by Cruzbots. Yes, cult does come to mind.

LOL, Cruz can't draw 1% of the crowd Trump draws.

And yet he won in Iowa, even with the impressive Trump stadium crowds...

LOL Cruz got his hat handed to him in NH.

Yep. It's 17-10. By March 2, it is likely 290-220 (with TX helping keep it close). It's still a race to 1237.

LOL, Trump leads Cruz nationally by 30 points.

At the moment, yes. As more candidates drop out, that lead should shrink. If it doesn't, then you can "LOL" all the way until JAN 20, and then you can take four years of "We told you he was going to do things we didn't want!"

Do you have any idea how many hang ups these pollsters are getting? I’m getting 5 to 10 calls per day. The phone tubes, I answer...”Hello, we are taking a survey...” [CLICK]. I prefer the old phones you could SLAM DOWN whe you hung up. I can’t wait till this damned primary us over.

“Hm, Trump lost Iowa and we will see what conservative South Carolina has to say.”

Did you ever notice the small separation in the number of votes between the candidates, or the percentages?

You would have thought that Cruz beat Trump the way Trump beat Cruz in New Hampshire, the way it is touted here.

Then you have to factor in for Cruz the extra votes he deceived away from Carson.

You have the corner on whining. I’m in the minor leagues by comparison.

Pre caucus poll, meaning they polled actual voters entering the caucus site BEFORE Carson campaign released the bizarre statement that he was going home.

“I sense nervousness in the cult.”

Having to tout this “poll” in a state where Trump consistently leads is the “desperation” by the actual “cult”.

Because winning* by 3000 votes in a caucus and then losing by a crapload in a primary in NH = Win in SC....or something.

This is true but only when comparing our intelligence.
