Last night people were wondering why Rubio was doing so well. If somebody tricked Cruz’ spokesmen at the caucuses to act in this way, it would have turned off Carson supporters to Cruz. They were already turned off to Trump because of his suggestions about Carson being like a child molester. So who would benefit from this crap? Rubio. And Rubio did better than expected. Fox supports Rubio. The GOPe supports Rubio. This Jennings Brown had a tweet where he said he got his family wondering about his political views by wearing a Cruz sweater. His family was saying they thought Cruz would be “too far to the right” for him. His tweets were against Trump, Cruz, and Carson but I didn’t see any tweets against Rubio.

The article at http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3391747/posts talks about Rubio’s surprising results, saying Rubio’s people started saying they were going to do better than expected “in the hours before the Iowa caucuses opened”. Two hours before the caucuses opened was 5pm, which was precisely when Jennings Brown and CNN were working on this hit on Cruz.

This article says:
“Rubio won first place in five counties in Iowa — major population centers with thousands of votes.

He won Dallas, Polk, and Story counties near the Des Moines area, as well as Johnson county in Iowa City and Scott County, which includes the city of Davenport.”

Is there a way to know whether these are the places where Cruz speakers said that Carson was dropping out?
