Donald Trump is poised to bounce back after his second-place finish in Iowa and win New Hampshire's first-in-the-nation primary next week. That's according to members of The POLITICO Caucus - a collection of strategists, activists and operatives in the four early nominating states: Iowa, New Hampshire, South Carolina and Nevada.

"Congrats to Rubio, but now everyone will [go] after him with withering attacks. The real race in New Hampshire is for second, for the opportunity to consolidate support to stop Trump or Cruz after New Hampshire."
"There are more candidates competing in New Hampshire, many of whom have practically lived there for months or years," added another New Hampshire Republican. Yet another said, "Rubio is in a five-person battle with Bush, Christie, Kasich and Cruz" for second place.

Yes ,,,, the liberals in N.H will love him .
Trump’s Wednesday meltdown calling for a re-do of IA could cause him to tumble so low he can’t recover.
A liberal wins in the NE...and that is news to NO ONE....!
Yes, he will do better in the states that prefer a lifelong New York liberal.
Wishful thinking. All the major networks and even Breitbart are reporting Carson and Trump’s barrage against Cruz, most of it blasting Cruz and highly damaging. Apparently, Breitbart writers are currently claiming that a big anti-Cruz story is about to drop as well, though uncertain ETA. It will be published by Breitbart and will be “explosive.”
New Hampshire should prove to be much more of a test of how actual voters feel, rather than the caucus method used in Iowa.
Caucusing is definitely NOT a “secret ballot” form of selection of candidates, but relies on arousing the herd to steer it one direction or another. Stampede is more descriptive of how the outcomes are determined there.
like Beck’s big bombshells :)
Better hope!
Yeah, that’s what Breitbart said just before he. . .
The GOP vote was a secret ballot. The rules changed this year and Trump even campaigned on it as such.
Trump
Rubio
Cruz
Kasich
Cristie
Cruz! Catching fire! (His pants at least...)
The Iowa Caucus was a joke. I saw photos of their “ballots.” Not even a name on it. Just check mark who you like and toss it in the basket. I saw Iowans on twitter claiming that people could have voted multiple times and no one would be the wiser.
Could be....after all, he’ the biggest crony capitalist in the race.
Trump is a wolf in sheep dip . He has abandoned his life long liberal support for an entirely opposite view on too many issues for me to trust him . He is so adolescent , infantile and sophomoric when confronted by any opposition and totally lacks respect for the office of president . However ,,,,, he might make a good game show host or perhaps a spot on the View with Whoopie and friends .
trump is real, not lawyerly synthetic
Cruz is so uptight in his lawyer cloak, there is no there there
he is a zombiebot
I thought they were scratching on stone tablets myself.
