Cruz may be able to re-cycle Obama’s bit about how well I ran my campaign shows I’ll be a good pres.
Not true for Obama, of course, although he did win twice so the campaigns were successful.
I’m coming around to Cruz, but I wish he’d get a voice coach.

Cruz is against energy subsidies like ethenal. Yet, he is leading in Iowa. Establishment heads explode.

Trump never does well in the Des Moines Register polls. They had Carson way up in one poll, and is this one of the one or two that had Fiorina over Trump immediately after she took him out of the race (according to Rich Lowry)?

Recycle out one candidate, recycle in another.

Why the difference? This one is 31-21, the other 29-22? Not that in terms of the leader it matters, but which are the accurate numbers for the poll?

Northwest and north central Iowa are the prime high-value farming areas. They always go Republican.
The more industrial eastern Iowa and some rural counties with strong Catholic presence are what tips Iowa to the Dems.

Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump 31m31 minutes ago New CNN Iowa poll -â Trump 33, Cruz 20. Everyone else way down! Donât trust Des Moines Register poll- biased towards Trump! Well the press wants a fight. Cruz is just the new go-to guy. Frankly it makes better sense than pushing the GOPe flavor of the week. Cruz (or his people), I'm sure, are happy for the assist. He gets to look like a "winner" (until the press are done with him), and they get to trash Trump.
To: VinL
The Des Moines Register is a left wing garbage rag. “Anybody but Trump”. Do not forget, Cruz can be bought. And will be beholden to donors/lobbyists/special interest PACs. And who does his wife work for? Now I have to go and make some pasta sauce. And grate some cheese. And open a bottle of red wine.

Yeah, but Cruz did wake up in a Holiday Inn last night, so he has that going for him.

Why the difference?
Don’t know and I’ve not seen the numbers either. You can’t get on the paper without
registering or something and it’s not on RCP. Trump knew this was coming based upon
his castigation of the DMR at the rally last night.

Iowa has always surprised me that in the generals they usually go Democrat - never understood that out of a supposedly conservative, Midwestern state. Must be the big ag welfare from Washington.Since 1984, Iowa has gone GOP only once, 2004. They say the way to make an Iowan farmer cry is to weld his mailbox shut.

Yeah, interestingly, 90% of what Trump says that cause his opponents to go ballistic happens in IA-—the McCain stuff, the church comments, the Carson “pathological” comments, the DMR bashing. I think IA is the one state Trump hasn’t fully figured out.
