Nice numbers!

According to poll analysis, in a one-on-one between Cruz and Trump, Cruz pulls 53% to Trump's 33%.

That is what stings so badly! We could get Trump, a candidate most GOPers DO NOT WANT, let alone most general election voters, just because of vote-splitting among everyone else. This suggests heavily that Cruz must stay in all the way to the end, because as other candidates drop out, support will coalesce among Cruz.

This poll also shows that Cruz would only get 1 delegate less than Trump if the results stand. So not a substantive "loss" at all.

We know after the “rally” the other day that Huckabee and Santorum are staying in to help Trump.

Iowans need to maximize their vote and stand with Ted Cruz.

Good point!

Then again, not a substantive loss for Trump if he's 2nd.

Rubio support is a big factor too.

This is an interesting dynamic. Trump has definitely benefitted from his large vote splitting field. As a Trump supporter this has me very concerned.

Jedi your “preference” for Cruz is showing, but nothing else!
