The live stream I was watching kept going out so if you missed the whole thing or part of it, here's a replay.
Saturday, November 28, 2015: GOP Presidential candidate and front-runner Donald J. Trump held a massive campaign rally and spoke to an overflow crowd of tens of thousands at Robarts Arena in Sarasota, FL.

Cruz is the type of candidate that does well in Iowa. The Evangelicals (Huckabee and Santorum) always gets Iowa only to lose New Hampshire.
If Cruz wins Iowa (which he could given his organizational strength) the Establishment will get scared out of their minds- because the choice will be Trump or Cruz
The funniest thing will be watching the Bush supporters running towards Trump to keep out Cruz
Did you forget to count the security people, the technicians and the fire Marshall?
I want Trump and Cruz to announce Cruz as VP choice.
It would be great to see them work the crowds as a TEAM!
Trump has the crowd skills of a stand-up comic and Cruz knows everything about everything...whadda team they would be!
That would be funny, but I would see it more the other way around.
The more support Trump/Cruz gain, the dirtier it will get.
Uncharted territory.
We might see shenanigans never seen before in American history.
Trump/Cruz announcement could appear right after Iowa results, if those two capture 2 top places.
No "might" about it!
It's guaranteed the Alinsky Voter Fraud Machine will be working overtime to keep HELLry out of jail.
“Is it just me or does every Jebbie Bush rally look like one of those court-ordered âAAâ meetings that you get sent to when you get a DUI?”
LOL, they certainly don’t look happy to be there!
Also, good idea to move the people seated behind Trump. I've watched many of his speeches, and the people behind him become very distracting.
Thanks for posting the links, Joe Seales!
I’m glad for the YouTube video. I was there for the rally, but things were so crazy in the audience around where I was, I found it a bit difficult to follow his speech attentively. I was down in the noisy standing-room mosh pit in the middle of the floor, where I was jostled several times and on a couple of occasions forced right up against the person in front of me by a person trying to get past behind me (for some reason people kept coming and going throughout the speech). There were also a couple of tall guys in front of me who kept shifting around, causing me to have to bob and weave to keep Trump in my sightline. And, just to mention, the line into the place was truly yuuuuge (and slow).
Now that I’ve got that out of my system...I really did think the rally was great overall. Trump had a lot of energy and palpable charisma. Seeing him with all his vigor and feistiness from a bit of a distance, it was hard to believe that he is almost 70. He seemed much younger. He really ended it on a bang by saying Hillary should be in jail, and the crowd ate it up. I think it’s clear by this point that he sees Rubio as his main rival among the Republicans, and I thought it was a bit amusing that Trump seemed to be at least as disgusted with the NYT’s bad financial and real estate deals as with this whole flap about the disabled reporter.
The audience was extremely enthusiastic for the most part. They got so worked up over the protestor that I could hardly hear Trump after he restarted his speech. I wonder if these disrupting protestors realize how much they help Trump and fire up his supporters?
The various people I heard talking (Northern snowbirds from Massachusetts and elsewhere, rural Floridians with Southern accents, a Hispanic man, etc.) all seemed to think that Trump was the most amazing thing since sliced bread. They especially liked his willingness to tell it the way it is (without fear and regardless of imposed PC norms).
Thanks for the ping.
Danged Christmas shopping is interfering with my Trumping, lol.

I suppose most Cruz supporters would go into complete meltdown mode, if that happened. It would go against every fiber in (most of) their beings. (From many of the posts I’ve read, here.)
Personally? I prefer Cruz to remain my Senator and continue to work on the inroads he’s making, in the Senate. (He’s only been a Senator for 3 years.) Not to mention how he’s keeping Cornball Cornyn in line ;-)
