Not just that Cruz is snarky, he’s a coward. He drafted Trump for 90% of the race then voila, here I am! Meanwhile Trump got his a$$ kicked 24/7.
Thre Democrats aren’t worried about Hillary...
they can put in someone else at their convention in July...
Plus they will already know who the nominee for the GOP is..
if its Trump they can slip another old white guy, Joe Biden in ...
Trump has changed the Dynamic in Iowa.
The old way, tried and true, was to go to diners and hardware stores and maybe churches and meet and greet one on one. The voters daily routines are not disrupted. It was retailing on the mom and pop level
Trump has said, I’m going to follow Walmart and reinvent retail by having gatherings in large venues where the people come to me. He has shown that in fact, the people or at least many of them, like to go somewhere in the winter and be a part of the growing crescendo that is Trump
only about 4% of the state population ended up voting last time. A fairly small increase derived from the well attended meetings can make a large proportional difference
Checking in!!
Thanks for the thread :)
Of course Ivanka is due to deliver in a little over a week. If she is with her dad today, and goes into labor... Most famous?
Trump is a MACHINE. I should be so lucky at his age to be able to keep such a schedule.
Other candidates have a speech writer and the memorize or read the STUMP speach So each time they speak it is identical. One recording would take care of all stops.
OTOH Trump may cover the same material at each stop. But since he speaks from his own heart and mind it’s different but similar with new materials thrown in for variety.
There are Cruz events out there, but for some reason the cruz supporters don’t post them. Heck, I started a live thread a couple of weeks ago. Just to make sure they had a place to post. And because I was honestly curious to see the comments.
I don’t get it. Any FReeper can start a live thread for a rally for a major candidate.
I love Iowa corn too; good eatin’. Can’t wait for summer!
I have to get going here.
YOu want to see something funny?
This race the Bix7 has been going on for over 40 years. It’s one of the biggest non-Marathon races in the country with top runners from all over.
Guess what? There is absolutely no mention of who the race is named after!!!!!!
Check it out?

“I donât get it. Any FReeper can start a live thread for a rally for a major candidate.”
One possible explanation is that they’re not Cruz supporters at all, but DU Trolls and leftist plants who are here simply to bad-mouth Trump and try to cause damage to the man who WILL be out nominee. If that’s the case, they don’t want to start a Cruz rally thread because they’d actually have to watch him and comment on it, and they’re not intellectually able to handle that.
Sigh. Make that “our nominee,” not “out nominee.”
Right after they fix the horrible problem with the smart quotes here (what it is... months now?) maybe the powers-that-be behind the site can get to work on letting people edit their posts.
Thanks for the times !
Be back later!
Another trivia question for the Davenport venue:
Trump’s event will be at the Adler Theatre in downtown Davenport. What famous performer died hours before he was scheduled to appear there in 1986?
They have been posted here, but even the supporters don’t watch them much.
Don’t know why because I don’t watch them.
I’ve sat on a Cruz thread. There are few Cruz guys that post, just not actively like Trump threads. They usually post the thread, watch the rally, and then comment on the thread afterwards.
Thank you!
