Rules may not have been broken but it was slimy and underhanded. That may not bother people like you but it doesn’t sit well with honest folk.

Carson’s own camp basically put out a report that said their candidate was packing it in. Repeating that isn’t slimy, and the truth is, Carson’s been in such a free-fall since his peak that there’s no legit reason for him to still be in the race anyway.

There was nothing slimy about reacting to a news report of Carson taking a break.

Carson was stupid for making such an easy to misconstrue comment just before the caucus.

He and Rush are on this Trumpcare crap that Trump still wants single payer. He did want it until he looked at it from the business side, now he wants private plans.

LOL.... yeah from the business side. He realized he was going to get killed if he kept supporting single payer. Don't worry... if he gets elected he'll team up with Pelosi etal and bring us single payer.

Trump is known as being a man of his word. Everyone agrees on that point. So you saying he wouldn’t follow through is just more lies to further your guy.

btw, if your guy is Cruz I have a question for you. Why is it bad for Obama to tell us he’s a natural born citizen, move on but ok for Cruz to pull the same thing.

Which word? He's telling everybody everything he thinks they want to hear, to the point of contradicting himself in the same interview from time to time.

I. Do. Not. Trust. Him.

Trump has no core philosophy and is interested in power for power's sake, not to advance any specific identifiable agenda. His policy is made up on the spur of the moment as he goes. And the unbelievable sheep here on FR who go along with it and find every means to defend his non-conservative proposals makes me sick.

The man is worse than Rudy Giuliani ever was, just wrapped up in a more palatable carnival barker's suit.

(end rant)

Your rants don’t make it true. Trump has a better core philosophy than Cruz, just doesn’t have the trillions of open border cash to push the propaganda. Trump is poor next to the special interest money pouring into Washington and these candidates.

The ones whose core philosphies revolve around power and money are Cruz and Rubio.

He's been on every side of every issue that I care about. Where is he today? Who knows. Where will he be in 12 months? Who knows.

What he's really saying - "We barely won the state everyone knew we would, so now we have a snowball's chance in NH. "

Wow, such delusion is amazing to behold. Trump led the polls in Iowa from August until December, except for the 2 week Carson boomlet, and was leading again in the last 2 week before the election, but "everyone knew" Cruz would win the state?

Face it, Trump was the favorite to win Iowa for months, and he blew it. Now Trump and his supporters are acting like he was always the underdog and never expected to win the state.

Not a conclusion but an observation. Cruz had the ground game in Iowa, similar to what he has going in NH.

Trump has just held rallys. When is he going to the mom and pop shops, walking the streets, pressing flesh?

He's not. That is a sure loser. He might win NH that way, but if we have learned any thing is the pollsters are not exactly accurate.

“Face it, Trump was the favorite to win Iowa for months,”

BS. Trump pulled ahead in the very late -and historically inaccurate- polling. Cruz was ALWAYS expected to win with Trump a possibility.

Now that Cruz has accepted responsibility for dirty pool against Carson, it’s clear Trump should have finished even closer.

Cruz had something like 12,000 people in Iowa, many of them from out of state. He doesn't have anything like that in New Hampshire.

Trump demonstrated the power of his popular movement to bring out the voters and there won't be any opportunity for Cruz to play tricks on primary voters like he did in Iowa.

Prepare to get crushed.

NH may be the ONLY state Trump wins.

Big money, big talk, and a big mouth doesn't add up to a coronation. That won't do him any good in the South or a lot of the West.

We'll talk after NH. Let's see if the pollsters are dead wrong....again.
