Indeed. Hillary’s ‘Operation Chaos’ is in full swing!
Maybe not.
Iowans are more rural and Conservative than the rest of the US electorate. The Democrats have Hillary and Bernie to choose from, which isn’t much offa choice. It’s easy to envision Conservative and centrist Democrats with populist leanings deciding to cross over for Trump. It’s also easy to envision Democrat evangelicals (yes they do exist) deciding to cross over and vote for Cruz.
That is just not rational.
How about this: R candidates, and we don't know who they are, have offered conservative/traditional D's a good alternative, and so they're changing.
I know a LOT of registered D's who are not an ideological fit for that party, who have been hurt by the economy, who rage against the higher insurance policies Obama delivered.
Do we not WANT these people to join our party rather than reflexively pulling the D lever because the granddaddy was a precinct captain way back in the day?
