Trump’s attacks on Cruz have driven voters to Rubio. It was a gamble which Trump probably was forced to take although I think he could have played his hand better.
Neither Cruz nor Rubio’s voters are likely to migrate to Trump during the primaries, IMO. Ditto for Carson’s voters.

The real problem Trump has here is, if he wins the primaries, His style of personal attacks means most of these voters are not likely to migrate to him after it’s over.

Trump didn’t need to attack Cruz to get a 2nd place finish in Iowa...it was an unforced error by Trump. A rising Rubio is the fallout. If Trump does not win NH...he is through...leaving Cruz & Rubio to duke it out.
