Donald Trump builds on his lead in New Hampshire [trunc]

Donald Trump, the candidate of choice for 33 percent of Republican Primary voters, is the clear race favorite. Ted Cruz (14%) and John Kasich (12%) vie for second. Trump appears to be settling in to his long-held front-runner position, as 55 percent of Republican voters in New Hampshire now believe Donald Trump will be the eventual nominee, up from 38 percent in December. These results are based on

With a big win in Iowa and an incredible debate performance, Ted Cruz can still pull this out. He is the only true Conservative in the race who is in double digits. The New Republic takedown of Trump and the Glen Beck endorsement should put Ted over the top.

Sorry. You’d better surface the dive planes are not working well. Trump is going to win.

Of course Trump is going to win! But thinking about that now is so hard on the Cruzadians that we have to pretend. ;-)

This poll is a gigantic lie.

I saw John Sununu on TV just the other day, and he said it couldn't be true.

Now why would he lie?

LOL Just be careful with the torpedo tubes. Ya never know what a party can lead to.

This is the first time in many cycles where I feel I am backing a winner. Bout time.

Trump 2016â€¦.NO idea who his running mate should or will be at this point.

New Republic???

I think you’re confusing your propaganga hack sources.

But never fear, Trump will Make American Great Again!

And Cruz can go see if he can do the job Texans elected him to do and maybe there will be a Scotus or federal judgeship for him in the future.

I don’t think anyone knows. Jeff Sessions has been brought up today. You never know. I think Trump will pick someone we don’t know. But if Sessions would run it would be the perfect package.

Anyone who would hook up with Glenn Beck is NO real conservative. Maybe the 2 of them can take their comedy routine on the road once this election is over.

The Cruzadians get really upset when we say things like “Trump will win” so we have to pretend Cruz will be triumphant. Next Monday will come soon enough. By the SEC primaries they will be ready to start the stages of grief.

Yes, but the Cruzadians get as upset if you say Ted is not a Conservative as they do when you point out that he is a Canadian.

For several months, Ted was under the radar and wasn’t vetted because he was polling middle of the pack. Now, that his poll numbers went up - he is getting vetted, and they can’t stand it. They were all perfectly content to let Trump take all the poison arrows as long as Ted could be shielded - and they thought those arrows would take Trump down, and Cruz would waltz into the nomination unscathed. I suspect many of them are political newbies, who don’t understand the rough-and-tumble game of politics.

Go Trump! Make America Great Again! It is almost too late, but only Donald Trump has the know-how, courage, name recognition, and freedom from rich donors to accomplish that gargantuan task.

Yes, Ted was playing the role of a pilot fish. He was basically drafting behind Trump. Now he is swimming alone and the going is much rougher.
