GGG, first primary i’ve ever followed. Seems like the next several states are going to Trump.
I’m a Cruz guy. Why can’t I find info for more than a few states?
and with Trump’s national lead at 20+ points, please tell me there’s still hope left.
We are definitely the underdogs. But we have shown we can win right out of the gate. Indeed, Ted Cruz is already tied for number two in New Hampshire, and his ground game is second to none. But make no mistake, we are going to have to pull this out with superior planning and a superior work ethic every step of the way.
It will be ok, p0622. Either Trump (my guy) or Cruz (your guy) will win. In either case, America will be far better off than it is today and what it could be if the democrats win.
To me, hope is what you have after all else has failed. I don’t want hope, I just want to win.
Again, I think either of these two guys would do a great job as president, but in different areas and for different reasons. I think that Trump is much stronger and I think he will win, and We the People will help him make America Great Again.
Cheers.....
~~Go Trump Go~~
Sure, it’s very possible. The question you have to ask is where are all those voters who aren’t voting for either Trump or Cruz going to go when this becomes a two man race after Super Tuesday? Remember only those candidates who poll over 20% on Super Tuesday will get any delegates (15% in a few states). Everyone else will have to drop out because they will have no possible path to win the nomination.
Things can turn around really quickly. Gingrich won South Carolina on the strength of a strong debate performance. I’m pretty sure he was not leading the polls before that. The GOP South Carolina debate is on Saturday.
This is still a weird race, because the establishment candidates are all pretty weak. Bush got all the donor money but Rubio is the only one who ever performed respectably in the polls. The “outsider” candidates Cruz and Trump are in a very good monetary situation, unlike Santorum and Gingrich last time. They’re also topping the polls.
One thing’s the same, Fox and the media is desperately spinning against Cruz the same way they span against Gingrich. Fox, very late in the game now started pushing Rubio the way they pushed Romney for months.
Cruz still has a fighting chance to beat Trump, especially in the southern states. The Cruz/Trump battle is really shaping up to be like the Santorum/Romney battle, where the more red states, religious states go for Santorum or Cruz, and the latter go for Romney and Trump. But Romney had a big monetary and organizational advantage over Santorum, while Cruz seems better positioned despite Trump’s deep pockets.
I still wonder though if Cruz is an unstoppable force and Trump is an immovable object, while the establishment candidate continues to pull delegates for himself, if we’ll end up with a brokered convention. That seems like a strong possibility. And then I don’t really know how easy it is to maneuver to win at the convention. Cruz will have all the expertise to know what to do, but if Rubio and Trump can cut a deal, they could do it and leave Cruz out.
State by state.. I think trump is one trumpertantrum away from going too far.
He’ll do well in the north east, but as he moves south and west his personality will cause people to pause and think before voting. Just like they did in Iowa. He’ll play to packed houses but at the booth...
His liberal views and NY personality doesn’t play well folks who say ‘Sir’ and ‘Ma’am’ at the dinner table.
