This is surprising. Cruz is Bible-thumping in nearly every appearance. On Hannity last night Cruz quoted scripture — TWICE — to make his points. I guess the cornholes in Iowa aren’t as gullible as I thought. They sure fell for The Huckster’s Elmer Gantry act in 2008.

Maybe evangelicals are realizing that massive immigration, legal and illegal, are causing this to be less and less of a Christian country, and that we are importing people who HATE Christians. Trump is the strongest about building a wall, deporting illegals, and sending back Syrian refugees. Other candidates can pay lip service all they want, but immigration is THE issue.

National Barack Channel polled 61% moderates to very liberal, that will include tons of crossover voters for Hillary. That with Trumps high unfavorables, no wonder he
loses head to head with her in poll after poll.

Yes that’s what I’m thinking. Ted Cruz is not necessarily going to get all the evangelicals in Iowa and I’m still waiting to see how opposing the ethanol mandate is going to work out for him. I still think its up in the air as to whether Cruz can pull out an Iowa victory.

Trans-Pacific Ted, pro-amnesty FReepers hit hardest.

First, it looks to be a national, online poll. Second, though the Trump national lead over Cruz is consistent with other polls the internals are not.

Other polls have shown that Cruz has large leads in the evangelical and very conservative categories. If Cruz’ margins in these groups has suddenly switched over to Trump that begs the question — why are Trump and Cruz still polling where they were? One would expect to see Trumps numbers much higher and Cruz’ numbers down with Jeb.

That hasn’t happened. So, where did Cruz get his new found support from if not the evangelicals and very conservative voters who are, apparently, flocking to Trump and what group is abandoning Trump for Cruz to keep their overall numbers in close approximation to where they have been?

Bogus internals.

I remember when there was a big fuss over Kennedy being the first Catholic President - his morals still sucked in oh so many ways.

Evangelicals aren't supporting Trump because of his "strong religious beliefs" but because he is a decent man who isn't atheist and actually has a moral/ethical code.

Those who insist on a "holier than thou because of strong outspoken religious beliefs" candidate only help the Evil One when they use that as their biggest standard.

That said, Jesus is Lord and Savior and none of us deserves even a drop of the blood He shed for us.....Praise God for His Love and constant goodness with His wayward children!!!

Well, unlike Hillary or Lieawatha, who would be the first woman President, Trump won’t be the first man - just the first one in a while.
