Most of them do.

I’m surprised that positive Cruz news has not been removed from the site yet!

Why do you say that? Makes no sense at all. Jim Robinson owns/runs this site and he, himself, has stated that he will vote for Cruz (first, Trump second).

Get your facts straight, please.

As long as he's kicking liberal, RINO and GOP-e butt and using his own money to do so, I say go, Trump, GO!!

I'm a Cruz fan and don't see how Trump kicking the crap out of our common foe does us any harm. Let him have at it.

If he destroys the GOP-e GREAT!!

If he destroys el Jebbe and all the other amnesty pimps, GREAT!!

If he destroys Hillary in the process, GREAT again!!

We've never had it so great. Finally a man comes along and takes the establishment head-on and kicks the crap out of them. Is that not a good thing?

I think the Trump bashers might want to sit back awhile and enjoy the show.

Go, Trump. GO!!

SC : Cruz 21%, Rubio 13%, Trump trailing at 40%
NH : Cruz 16%, Rubio 14%; Trump trailing at 34%

With a Trump presidency there is no reason for the letter C to come before the letter T.

Trump will fix it so the letters can take turns which one is first. It’s not fair that A is always first.

After Trump fixes that then it’s on to fixing the number problem.

There is no reason for the number 1 to always be first before any of the other numbers. It’s not fair 1 is always first.

With a Trump presidency the numbers will take turns which one is counted first.

Trump is all about being treaded fair.

GO TRUMP!

Texas hasn’t been polled in awhile, and I had been placing Texas in Trump column.

You may have thought that because some people on this forum have been pronouncing that Texas "going all out for Trump" was a fait accompli, even though the evidence didn't support their statement.

I'm also hearing pronouncements that if Texas goes for Cruz, it won't matter, which may be another bogus statement since Texan's will have their primaries on Super Tuesday, unlike times past.

I don't know what's going to happen this year in the primaries, but I've decided anyone (media or individuals) who states Cruz is already beat NOW before even one state has held it's primary, are just trying to convince Cruz supporters to "switch" to Trump....or to just stay home and not vote. Smacks a little too much of elitist's games to me.

It doesn’t matter. If Cruz doesn’t win in Iowa, an outcome that appears to become less likely every day, his campaign is over.

I support Trump, but expect Cruz to win Iowa. The polls mean nothing. Frequently in the past 12 years candidates behind by 10 or more points have prevailed, including Obama, who improved by 17% over the poll to win. By all accounts Cruz has the superior ground game, which I think will make the difference, as it did with Huckabee

[HoosierWordsmith]

“Jim Robinson owns/runs this site and he, himself, has stated that he will vote for Cruz (first, Trump second).”

My sense has been the opposite. However, if JR has stated that he supports Cruz and will vote for him, I stand corrected!

Thank you for the update...

Anne Richards. Sheila Jackson Lee.

Your ignorant supposition doesn’t change the fact that winning Iowa doesn’t ensure anything but... winning Iowa.

Wise up.

[ScottinVA]

And... you said Iowa, not New Hampshire and Iowa.

[progunsantichoice]

Trump will not win Florida.

[TomGuy]

Curious that Jeb Bush is only getting 4%, since he son is Land Commissioner of Texas, and his bro is former Texas Governor and president.

[PoloSec]

Yes Indeed, I'm right there with you,   GO TRUMP

Trump Logic is not near as complex as Liberal Logic and there is only one simple concept his supporters must comply with to avoid confusion... See No Evil!    Speak No Evil!    Hear No Evil!

His followers routinely demonstrate just how easy it is to be simple:   VOTE TRUMP

I hope Ted wins his home state while Bush and Rubio lose theirs. It is sad that Texas is a proportional state while places like California, Massachucetts, etc are winner take all. They have more influence on the total delegates selected and final nominee than Texas. Yet, they never vote for Republicans in thee GE.

[Cincinatus' Wife]

Thank you!

[GrouchoTex]

People think that after Iowa it is all over.
Not so.
The first 4 states are relatively small in the grand scheme of things.
I think after the SEC primary, we will have a candidate.
A lot of people have given Trump that already, which today he looks good for it, but a lot can happen in 5 to 6 weeks.
Look at the last 2 to 4 weeks in Iowa alone!

[duffee]

When does Texas vote?

I believe it’s March 1st, part of the SEC (WELCOME TEXAS A&M) primary. Mississippi votes a week later March 8th.
