See the video at the link for the thousands of supporters waiting in line today in Sioux Center Iowa in the cold and snow. Trump filled the facility with 1500 and had to use an overflow room with hundreds who couldn't get in to watch on Television.
But they won't caucus! They'll stand in line for hours in the cold to see Trump but they won't caucus!
For what it is worth, Cruz had 700 supporters at the same facility two weeks ago. This is Sioux Center northwest Iowa - evangelical religious country. Santourm cleaned up here in 2012 with 45-15% margins over Romney. There were 2,000 votes in Sioux county during the 2012 GOP caucus. Trump had that many voters come out to his rally TODAY.
If Cruz can't win this county big he doesn't have a prayer winning Iowa.

But, of course, none of them bother showing up for a caucus. They’re just celebrity stalkers.
Of course they won’t show up and caucus.
I mean it might be a warm 72 degrees inside when they caucus.
I saw a pic of Cruz who had about 40 to 50 at his Iowa rally some 3 days ago or so.
Nope. Too hot.
;-)
This is WITH Beck? Oh my. Glenn’s ability to draw a crowd has slipped. Ted’s, well, par for the course.
Now that they got to see a celebrity, half of them will probably go ice fishing on caucus day.
The one I saw on TV was a few days ago Cruz by himself. That would be interesting to see the crowds with Beck and Cruz on the trail. I’ll look around to see if I can find Beck and Cruz rally pics. ...
“Now that they got to see a celebrity, half of them will probably go ice fishing on caucus day.”
They stood out in the cold just to see a celebrity?
Whatever gets you through the day.
If half of them didnt show up, that still would be hundreds more than came to see Glenn-n-Ted.
Yep, these people are just “Fair-Weather” friends.
These people will crawl over broken glass to vote for him.
on the other hand, everyone likes to see a trainwreck...
The only train wreck is the locomotive Trump is about to drive over Cankles fat a . . . .
Been thinking about this. If Cruz can’t tell that Beck is a charlatan, how dumb is he? If he can tell and still pals around with him as a “fellow Christian” what kind of hypocrite is he? OK, shields up! Send your best shot.
Trumb would hand out hand warmers out of his own pocket hillary would do it with tax bucks
Been thinking about this. If Cruz can’t tell that Beck is a charlatan, how dumb is he?

He can’t get rid of Beck. The same money man behind Cruz is also behind Beck’s company.
It seems like the Canadian band NickelBack is catching on with Teddy.
"A protester dressed as a Canadian Mountie accusing Sen. Ted Cruz of liking Nickelback, an oft-maligned Canadian grunge band. He and two others in Mountie costumes also handed out copies of Cruz's Canadian birth certificate outside Cruz's rally with conservative talk show host Glenn Beck on Saturday in Ankeny, Iowa."
I’ve found a couple of short articles about the Cruz-Beck rally in Ankeney, but neither make any mention of the size of the crowd. Usually when no mention of crowd size is made, it means it was pretty small.
The Waterloo rally starts at 7pm, doors open at 6pm. If they are expecting to get everyone in and seated in an hour, they must not be expecting much of a crowd.
Cruz accepting and encouraging Beck’s endorsement is like a chef accepting the endorsement of Ed Gein.
Lawyers usually have average intelligence in IMO.
