Oh, please.

I’ve said from the start Iowa is only one state. Perhaps in your zeal to blast “Cruzbots,” you failed to read back to Naps’ original comment about if Trump wins Iowa, it’s “all over.” So let me clarify for you too... whether Cruz, Trump or whomever wins it.. it’s just one down with 49 to go.

Got it?

Of course, when Ted was leading in Iowa, the Trump supporters were the ones shouting the loudest that Iowa didn't mean anything, that it hasn't picked a GOP candidate in forever, etc.

The fact is that whether Trump wins Iowa or Cruz wins Iowa will result in a difference of 2-3 delegates either way. Cruz has the money and the organization already in place to compete at least until Super Tuesday, and Trump is not going to run up any massive delegate leads by then. So unless the bottom just falls out and Cruz starts polling in Bush territory, this isn't going to be over any time soon. If Cruz wins Texas and does well in California, where he is currently leading, he could easily force this into a brokered convention. But it is too early to see how things shake out when the voting starts.
