Iowa polls are notoriously unreliable. 4 years ago the polls were saying that Newt was ahead but the finished third.

This is actually good for Trump because it plays down expectations.

I tried posting that article and it told me that the Des Moines Register was not welcome because of a copyright complaint.

I guess you didn’t get that message.

It’s been posted twice already.

If you guys want to hang your hats on the Des Moines Register for some social proof, then go right on ahead.

Nope.

You guys did you happy dance with that last one for 2 days until another one came out.

Then you guys scattered.

You need their help more than we do.

Agreed. Caucuses in particular have a lot more dynamics to keep track of.

I think Iowans are getting Trump fatigue. Irrespective Cruz has played it very well.

Be cool.

Iowa is perfect for Cruz. He will win there.

Then, eight days of “The End of Trump” - until he blows the doors off in NH.

PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE Cruzians - don’t screw this up. Your boy is going to the Supreme Court. The White House isn’t his gig.

Go, Nut Jobs, go!

Lest we forget that "brilliant is as brilliant does ..."

We could use a few more nut jobs like the ones that are going to make Cruz the President!
