Chuck Todd: ‘I Think One Guy that Can Stop Trump Is Cruz’
Gambian (via MSNBC) ^ | 1/9/16 | Staff

SCARBOROUGH:... So what's your scenario for an outside scenario for how trump gets stopped at this point?

TODD: I think it's Cruz. I think it's Cruz winning Iowa and somehow, the establishment never coalescing in new Hampshire and allowing maybe Cruz or Trump to be basically neck and neck in New Hampshire but especially if Cruz, I think it's very possible Cruz over-performs in New Hampshire than what people expect because of the fact there's so many candidates fighting for the moderate wing of that electorate it's going to leave Cruz by himself with the Liberals and the smaller group of evangelicals and somehow Cruz taps into the Evangelical support. I think one guy that can stop trump is Cruz.

I thought I heard on Rush that trump was asked about it and then used it as he should have. All fair as far as I’m concerned!

I can’t believe anyone thinks Cruz can beat Hillary. Name recognition wins elections. It will take independents and some democrats to win this and Cruz has neither.

Sorry, but no.

You can just tell me, "I told you so!" Or not.

But I wish I had Cruz at 100-1 in Vegas earlier this year.

Just not quite as confident as you claim. In other words you are a fraud.

The NRSC is all over FACEBOOK again today with their presidential poll.
https://yourvoice.nrsc.org/landing/presidential-poll/?utm_medium=social&utm_source=facebook.com&utm_campaign=20160104_nrsc-lb-votetrumprubiocruz_facebook&utm_content=nrsc&utm_term=83920800

Just be aware that when you vote for Trump you will get emails trying to sell you BOGUS Trump gear and the $$ goes to finance Rubio and Cruz (who used to head the NRSC!)and other senate republicans!

This is the National Republican Senatorial Committee and they are CONNING you to hurt the Trump campaign!

They’ve been doing this for months. http://towncriernews.blogspot.com/2015/09/more-gop-fundraising-on-trump-name-now.html

I don’t care how many polls you show Cruz beating Hillary. It goes against common sense. Cruz will get zero liberal and moderate votes. ZERO.

BS.

You are a Trump troll.

Will you vote for Hillary if Cruz wins the nomination? Trump is a lot closer to her than he is to a real constitutional conservative like Cruz.

The fact that you ignore all evidence that does not fit your little fantasy makes you irreverent in any adult conversation.

LOL! A really, really dumb Trump troll.

I will let you know when I am being irreverent. First, I have to stop laughing.

If Cruz is not 1st place in Iowa I will donate $25 (in addition to my monthly donation) to FR.

If Cruz is 1st place in Iowa will you donate $25 to FR?

It has to be a single unique donation for $25. The loser will post a message that he is making the donation, then immediately make the donation with his/her user name. Agree to those terms and you have a bet.

I just posted what I would do. Unclear how that is different than what you are requesting.

I just want it to be verifiable. It is a bet then. We’ll work out the details of variable payment after the Iowa primary is complete. Too bad for you though, Had you read the “Art of the Deal” you could have easily gotten 2to1 odds out of me.

I would say that’s too bad for FR, then. Of course I’m a monthly donor and have proven my love and support for FR.

That should have been;

" We'll work out the details of verifiable payment after the Iowa primary is complete."

Trump loses Iowa and you'll go degak.

TDS (Trump Derangement Syndrome) takes yet another mind.
