Things have been relatively calm in the world and here. Iowans will vote their heart not with their anger.

I say it will be in this order:

1. Cruz
2. Paul
3. Carson
4. Rubio
5. Trump

I hope I am wrong, but I will assure you that if Trump loses or does poorly, he will be even more determined.

In Iowa if Trump loses or does poorly it’s because:

1. Use of foul language at Rallies
2. Going over the top when his opponent was already beating, piling on of Cruz and Bush I think went over board.
3. Going after people like Bob Vander Platts was ill advised.
4. Missing the Last Debate
5. Not spending more time in the street, walking the precincts and meeting people face to face
6. Not convincing people that he holds conservative values esp with the choices for SCOTUS. I think of all, yes all, issues for conservatives we want to be assured that the next 3 to 4 judges will be like Clarence Thomas.
7. In the end the media locally and nationally worked hard behind the scenes to undermine his campaign
8. Did not have the best ground game
9. Did not have many people in gov’t supporting him.
10.Is a New Yorker.

If Trump wins or does well it’s because of 1 to 10 above.

Just WHAT is wrong with YOU?

You have everyone wondering about you and talking about you, so I'm going to just come out and bring it to you face to face.

Your post is one of THE most patently ridiculous screeds EVER posted to FR and I should know, since I've been here from almost the start of this site, just lurking to begin with and then joining almost a year later.

You can quit cheering me up now, Nikos.

CNN entrance poll:

Trump 27

Cruz 22

Rubio 21

Carson 9

If this is accurate, it's looking good! :)
