CHARITON, Iowa â Around 10 p.m. Saturday, with locals here stuffing the entryway of a general store known for something called taco pizza, the presidential campaign of Senator Ted Cruz seemed to be winning a bet with itself.

NYT-MSM heads-up to the GOPe ...
This is about as real as Carson or Fiorina gaining in the polls. Not real. Especially when you look nationally and he’s down in the 3-7% range.
Little towns are very important in flyover country.
Trump or Cruz-— or both— when they are doing well, I am feeling good...

Go Ted!!
Trump trashed the New York Times yesterday big time. This is their response today and it looks like they stayed up late to do it.
In before the Trumpty Dumpties.
News of Cruz surging — GOOD
News coming from the NY Times — NOT GOOD
You know full well that most Trump supporters will also support Cruz - and vice versa. Your attempts to divide the two groups is doomed to failure.
Cruz hitting homeruns everywhere he bats.
Go Cruz Go!
When the New York Slimes speaks well of a Republican, you are entitled to wonder why,
Are they running away?
Do you just enjoy being a liar?
Let's look at the last 10 national polls listed on Real Clear Politics, starting with the latest:
14
8
14
9
11
8
13
10
6
4
The 6 and the 4? Taken before November. If you look at the 5 polls taken entirely in November (14, 8, 14, 9, 11), you have a 8 to 14 range and an 11.2% average.
So where are you pulling that 3-7% range nonsense from?
Can I say Merry Christmas yet? Trump says we can when he is elected.
I say it with the twerp in office. :-)
Obama’s not the only delusional...
