I’m resigned to Trump losing

Ted’s folks are resigned to Ted winning.

Whatever happens, I’m ok with it.

If Ted loses, OMG it’s going to be brutal for some people.

They’ve been hanging their hat on Iowa for nearly eight months now.

Stand back folks. She’s gonna blow!

You speak into a very small group now. Have a great debate with the Mirror!!

Doesn’t matter. Iowa does same day voter registration as well as changes of party affiliation. Any Iowan who gets a hair to vote in the caucus can.

Crybaby has to have someone to blame it on.

Does not have his board of directors to blame for this one.

Maybe he can do as his mentor Obama does, blame it on Bush.

Who funds RedState, I wonder.

[posterchild]

The ‘news’ should never be the news.

This is sales rank for Art of the Deal for the last week.  Quite a spike.

[TigerClaws]

All the CNN commentators tonight are agreeing with Trump. Bizarre.

This move will pick up a lot of independent votes and Democrats (blacks and union voters) for Trump.

Trump is already looking at the general election. This establishes him as independent and not in the establishment Republican corner.

He thinks he's a lion but really he's a ...

Iowa is proportional...he won't lose

That's what is kind of funny - the argument over who "wins" is more about bragging rights and "momentum". In actuality, the difference in the number of delegates between Cruz and Trump will be 1-2 delegates at the most, no matter who is 1st and who is 2nd.

This is like Jeb’s ad featuring Hillary.

[tallyhoe]

What we have here is a failure to communicate!!!

[Dave W]

Fascinating...thanks for linking. Things that make you go ummmm... or something like that.

[RKBA Democrat]

LOL, FR is definitely not a reflection of the world outside of it. Were it, we’d be talking about VP Palin’s campaign.

Won't Trump feel foolish when he wins Iowa by a large margin. /s

[WENDLE]

Here is a $10 donation to FR. Trump wins. If you will bet $10 on cruz in Iowa— seek ye the promise land. Honor system.

Another angle, another hit piece. You have to admire their creativity.

[Luircin]

That was Red State’s fantasy.

Reality: Red State is throwing a tantrum because Donald Trump deftly avoided an obvious trap set for him and turned it into a no-lose scenario for him.

If it was Cruz pulling this, Red State would be falling all over themselves calling him wise and courageous.

But instead, Cruz is all, ‘Thank you sir; may I have another?’ And this timid obedience to the media is somehow braver than telling them to stuff it.

TRUMP’s blocks and tackles are rolling thunder. This pummeling has caused not only great butt hurt, but has lead to mental gymnastic performances that are fast becoming the stuff of cartoons.
