Trump Leads Cruz by 16 Points in Alabama – 37-21%
Overtime Politics ^ | 02-04-2016 | Fred

Posted on 02/04/2016 9:52:03 PM PST by UpForTrump

Donald Trump has to be happy seeing the latest results out of Alabama, where he is currently beating Ted Cruz by 16 points. Though the state only awards 47 delegates on Super Tuesday, if things stay about the same as they are now, he stands to gain a lot of delegates from the Yellowhammer State. Of course, things can change quickly, as the nation saw first-hand in Iowa on Monday night. Marco Rubio had a surprising surge to a strong third place finish, clearly positioning himself as the establishment candidate of choice.

Three days after the Iowa Caucuses have finished and we’ve had three Republicans drop out of the race, bringing the total to 9. Where their support goes is still up in the air, but candidate dropouts will probably have an effect on the Alabama race.

Make illegals your signature issue,,,,the issue that earned you scorn from practically the entire world. That’s how you win the south. Ted, Marco…care to step up and take the issue away from Trump? Or are you told to keep quiet by your bosses and donors?

Can I give a piece of advice. Your guy’s gonna win. That’s pretty obvious.

Dont gloat and make peace because he’ll need the Cruz voters.

I’m voting for him in the generals if he wins, that should go without saying.

And I think both have not had the most integrity at times.

And no one told me, since this is my first primary, that this nonsense goes until APRIL 16 when i get to vote in NY!

it maybe be over by then.

“you’re guy put up a good fight. Congratulations” works much better than “your filthy liar canadian fraud weasel lost” :)

I will be happy for Trump and his supporters even though i have given him heck.

But be gracious winners!! Please. For the sake of the presidency.

Well said. It’s far from over. Hell I’m a broken record but if either ted or marco could pivot to illegals convincingly I’d have a very good problem right now. As it is only Trump had the guys to say the sensible things about illegals that we all feel….”either we have a country or we don’t”. I don’t like Trump’s insults and twitter tantrums but he is dead on convincing on illegals. You have to deport them.

Why do you keep flip flopping between the two?

The rabid Cruzers GLOATED and were crude and rude after the Caucus on Monday. Many have already stated, over and over again, that they will NEVER vote for Trump; NOT EVER.

Unlike them, most of us won't gloat; however, detente is something I shan't engage in, with ANY of them.

Thank you for that.

The latest Cruz Iowa gloat fest was seriously off-putting and unworthy of FReepers.

Trump needs to go positive now and lower his ego and focus on the illegals and terrorism.

He’s dead right on EVERYTHING and is neither a fake nor a crook AND he is an honorable man, whose word is his bond.

Short sighted petty “winners” who have lost sight of the greater goal.

Keeping Dems *and* e-Rubio out of the White House.

I’ve never been good at waiting in lines so, “you’re guy put up a good fight. Congratulations”. ;>)

because i’m pathetic. I always voted R.

That’s it.

No thinking involved.

Now there’s 2 Rs. I was for Trump after his concession and against him after the tweets. Against Cruz after the NY comment and for him again after I though he would pick better SC judges.

I apologize for my schizophrenia.

Be thankful I dont get to vote till this thing’s probably decided.

Didn’t mean to cause you any grief, nopardons, you’re a good man.

What about illegals, I ask sincerely. What is Ted’s plan on that I would like to know. Thanks.

The rabid Cruzers don't care.

They are CUT OFF YOUR NOSE TO SPITE YOUR FACEers. FR has seen many of this sort since the site started.

Until then, may gracious discourse prevail.

You won’t find a gloat in one post of mine.

Besides the fact that 8 to 7 delegates isn’t much of a victory, I dont believe in gloating to my allies.

There was a time, not so long ago, that I wanted a Trump/Cruz ticket. I really liked both. However, the Cruzbots on this forum were so danged nasty and vile, that I’m not sure I could vote for Cruz, should he win the nomination. They continued and continue to post every negative article or piece of information they can find against Trump. I don’t know how manyothers this has turned off, but, it sure did a number on me. I can’t say that I didn’t go back at them - because I did - but, never started it.
