Although I lean more to Cruz than Trump, I’ve heard that Iowa is really not an accurate indicator of an eventual election winner. As I understand it many have not won Iowa and gone on to win the general.

True,

Now watch the MSM go into full Rubio pimping mode, they have to get a viable NWO candidate to get rid of Cruz and Trump, which I fully believe they will do I just don’t know how they’ll do it yet,

Bush has failed his daddy, he should just run as VP for Hillary that was his purpose anyway, to carry her water, he should really bow out now, the other two NWO candidates jockeying for a VP slot Christie and Kasich aren’t even asterisks,
