Deace: Iowa Upset Predicted
Conservative Review ^ | January 25, 2016 | Steve Deace

Posted on 01/25/2016 6:21:57 PM PST by GodGunsGuts

... I cite these precedents as reasons why I'm giving the analysis I'm giving, and sticking with it despite the latest public opinion polls. That analysis is this -- the same people who typically vote in the caucuses will likely decide the outcome of this one. And in that case the best organization wins -- and the best organization belongs to Ted Cruz...

It’s a caucus. I would put $5 on Ron Paul (yes, I mean Ron).

Ted Cruz winning Iowa is an upset??? Cruz has been ahead in the polls for quite sometime. I think it was Carson that was leading before Cruz. It is only in the last week or so that Trump has jumped ahead of Cruz. If there is an upset it would be Trump pulling the upset.

Fantastic! This news is so liberating! Now I don’t have to worry if Trump is going to peak at 47%!
I know that Ted Cruz will be able to pull this off and save America from being made great again!

My post about a similar topic on a similar thread...

As of Oct Trump had the superior ground game, I’ve heard nothing to tell me anything has changed. People keep saying Cruz has a better organization, but no one has shown any proof of that. But the pundits keep saying it. We will know in a couple of weeks I suppose.

Desc says in the aricle that according to what he is seeing on the ground in Iowa, Ted Cruz wins because of superior organization.

It’s funny how people still assume Trump is just winning this primary season by dumb luck. As if he just ignores ground game get out the vote efforts.

Trump doesn’t leave things to chance. But the old ground game canard is often used by those who are losing to try and buck their supporters up.

It’s an upset now that Trump has practically won the nomination from the power of his tweets alone.

Cruz should be petitioning the Supreme Court to take up his citizenship case. God knows he waited long enough to drop his Canadian citizenship. He’d be doing us all a favor.

So Trump is packing a State with outsiders to create a false perception of the actual people of Iowa? Kinda like busing in voters, huh. How Democrat-like of him.

Doesn’t matter .. Cruz is not doing well anywhere else and definitely can’t win the general election

If he didn’t have to be naturalized, then he is a natural born American. If it goes to court we win.

Joke of a poll you posted. Conducted Jan 5-22 with less than 300 Republicans all via landline and done by college students. Sounds like a great poll. But if it makes you feel better to believe then so be it.

He says this without metrics. When did Cruz get to 1682?
How many direct contact supporters are identified for each precinct?

These are serious questions, and the Trump org had those answered in Oct and had covered down before Turkey day.

The tide could have turned but for me to believe that I need actual data, not anecdotes.
