Maybe Trump will hold that lead over the next few days, who knows? As a perpetual reminder, Rick Santorum trailed in Iowa by 15 points a week before he won the caucuses in 2012, so it's very smart to assume that things could change dramatically.
But polling often does a poor job of predicting one of the most important aspects of what will happen on the night of the caucuses: Who will turn out and for whom. I've been on a bit of a kick to this effect for a few days now, but I can't reinforce it enough. If Trump or Cruz can't get their people to the polls, an easy race can become a close race and a close race can become a disaster.

I am in Iowa and this article is a fair assessment. Cruz’s supporters will go to Caucus. The campaign knows who these people are. They can get a pretty good count on their base.
I did. Before I posted it.
Did you read it? And, if so, why are you disagreeing with it?
It is, after all, simply a statement of fact. You must not want to hear it...
You’d be wise not to even respond to JoSixChip. All he does is hurl insults and attacks; he’s unable to do a civil discourse.
I say I was a hillary voter but now Mr Trump seems the best choice. I prefer to F with the enemy and not snipe semi friendlies. I am a liberal independent of course. In other words a sh!t for brains.
Trump makes me want to upchuck!!!
Oh yeah? why’s that?
