Hey, I am a Cruz supporter.
But this was not the big win that many supporters are trying to spin it to be. In the real game, the nomination game, 1 delegate difference doesn’t even add up to one percentage point worth of difference this early in the game. This is going to be a long struggle and Iowa does not determine the leader. Iowa serves to eliminate the lower tier of also rans.
For all practical purposes, it was a tie.
If we (GOP) are going to celebrate, then we should celebrate that our turn out was SIGNIFICANTLY better than the Dem turn out.
“For all practical purposes, it was a tie.”
It wasn’t a tie. It was a win.
You can say there’s only a slim lead in the delegates, it was a close race, whatever. But to say it wasn’t a win is just false.
