Awful lot of hubris in the Cruz operation. We shall see.

Nice to have confidence, but bragging rubs a lot of people the wrong way. Stick to the issues and let the chips fall where they may.

So I guess constitutional conservatives are just going to be expected to vote for the candidate that is clearly constitutionally ineligible to be POTUS? I swore an oath to protect and defend the constitution but I’ll be expected to break that oath for Ted Cruz? I don’t think so.

I’m not so sure, Cruz hasn’t spent a year tramping around NH, and NH isn’t nearly as evangelical. I wouldn’t doubt it if IA goes give Cruz a boost in NH, and Rubio will get a boost as well. The huge lead held by Trump in the last poll will drop accordingly, but I still think Trump will win NH.

I'm a big Cruz backer, but the northeast is on the left politically. A real conservative won't do really well there and Cruz is the only consistent conservative running. I would expect Trump to do well in NH. His NY values are more in line with NH.

SC will be where we see whether Cruz can beat Trump. If the south falls for the faux conservative from NY there's not going to be much hope of winning in Nov.

let’s understand...

Cruz garnered within 2 points of his pre-caucus poll point and then media entrance polls. He landed where he was supposed to in terms of percentage of this vote.

Rubio closed well and Trump lost about 5 points. Carson lost about 3.

My honest question is, how will Ted outperform his polling percentage? He moved up to no 1 in IA, and congrats to him for doing so, but what he didn’t do was gain populous. He HAS to do that in NH to he competitive. So ... how does he gain voters?

“You should have been here an hour ago,” Campbell told Breitbart News. “The place was packed.”

Lol! Now that is funny. ‘You guys just missed it. It was packed, I tell ya. Packed!’

The voter shaming letters for NH are being printed as we speak.

I’m a Cruzer, but it’s currently 33-11-11-11-10, Trump over the peleton in NH... If Cruz can pull THAT off, with Rubio getting the GOPe and media, he might just be inevitable... but I’ll greedily bet pizzas against donuts that it will be Trump by at least 8-12 points.

If Cruz can eliminate a 20+ point deficit, he’ll win the election. He won’t but....

I guess playing dirty politics with other candidates intentions, qualifies as the integrity evangelicals are looking for in a Cruz. He’s a politician like all the rest.
But not much of a leader.

Though I would love to see Cruz win NH, I think this state is more of a Trump / Rubio race.

I will be very happy if Cruz makes a strong showing there.

Trump better focus on Rubio, or Rubio is going to steal his lunch in NH. Thus far, Trump is still in IA mode and attacking Cruz.

I don’t know about Cruz winning in NH, but people underestimate Cruz at their own peril. There was a reason for Cruz’ obstreperous tone in his victory speech last night. What is the one emotion that is a huge factor in Trump’s popularity? Anger. Anger at the GOP establishment over their disregard for the people who voted them in to the majority in Congress in 2010 and 2014 and failed to stand up to Obama and the dems, letting them get pretty much everything they want. Cruz is going to try to trump Trump at speaking for these people who are tired of crony capitalism and anemic economic growth.

Well....if Cruz wins NH (that has never happened in a real primary, just Reagan 84, Bush 04)...then, all of a sudden, he will look like he could sweep the table.

I doubt Cruz can win NH. But...even second in NH is impressive as it shows Cruz is reaching beyond his Iowa voters. we shall see.
