Actually, the author just phoned it in. He's parroting Dick Morris point for point.
Come Mar. 15 the winner take all states kick in. Then
we’ll begin to see how the race will really stack up.
This is what I’ve been praying for. Steady, solid Cruz support over the long haul.
Ooooook...The Nation. The bastion of progressivism and social liberalism. But I admire your hope. However, Trump will win SC going away, probably similar to his blowout Nh win. Then NV and a blowout win in MI where he will probably break 50%. Try as you may, Ted is a regional candidate who’s really not that strong in the region he’s supposed to be strong in. Repeat after me, President Trump.
Losing is the New Winning. ;-)
What this article overlooks is that Trump is leading Cruz by about 16 points in SC, I know all the polls are pre-IA and NH. Matter of fact, all the polls in the South that I’ve seen show Trump leading, except TX, where Cruz is 4 points up. We’ll see soon enough what SC will do on the 20th. I’m sure that there will be several state polls in SC, and elsewhere now that the first two contests are out of the way. Sure, Cruz won Iowa, but was crushed in NH, and people usually tend to remember the last contest more than the first.
NH shows where Cruz will end up in most places other than quirky Iowa. No matter how much he spins it, he only got 1% more votes than Rubio and 1/2% more than Jeb!
Cruz lost his momentum, bigtime. And he’s now viewed as a traditional “whatever it takes” politician.
Looking at the latest RCP polls for Georgia, this is a claim that has no bite. I like Cruz and would vote for him if Trump doesn't win, but to wishfully believe things are so because you hope they are is not healthy.
The establishment moving down the list of preferred insiders in order. At this rate they’ll be back to Jeb by Nevada.
Cruz never even got one delegate in NH. That is WAY different than trump’s #2 finish in IA with one less delegate than Cruz.
It is very encouraging to see that the republican side got 264000 votes and Hillary and Sanders combined got 234000.
This is the battle; illogical morons with their lips permanently fastened to government tits outnumber those of us who are paying for it all. That is a fact. Trump represents the only hope for getting enough crossover and independent votes to overcome those tit sucking parasites. Cruz simply will not pull in enough votes to do it. Trump is the only chance we have.
I will vote for whoever is the republican nominee but none but Trump stand a chance at winning this fall. The popularity of Sanders, and by default socialism, coupled with the fact the number of parasites outnumber those who make up the host proves that beyond any doubt in my mind.
“Few expected a hard-charging conservative from Texas to do well in a state known for giving moderate Republicans like John McCain and Mitt Romney primary victories.”
Part of Trump’s agenda:
1. Replace Obamacare with a free market alternative
2. Build a wall on southern border
3. Deport all illegals
4. Re-negotiate trade deals
5. Re-do Iranian agreement
6. Rebuild military
7. Make America great again, and all that that entails
8. Temporary ban on Muslim immigration to the United States
9. Defeat Isis quickly
10. Get rid of Common Core
11. Appoint conservatives to the Supreme Court
Question to Cruz supporters and pundits:
Which one of these items is NOT conservative?
How is Cruz running to the right of Trump on any issue?
Interesting that the author mentions President Goldwater. /s

Cruz supporters constantly bash Trump supporters for posting from outlets like The New York Times ... but The Nation is just dandy, apparently.

Cruz came in third in New Hampshire and by failing to win second place, I think he's hurt himself. He may do well here in South Carolina but I find it hard to believe that he'll actually win. If he loses SC, it's very hard to see him winning going forward. I think Trump is heavily favored to win the nomination.
