Ted Cruz is probably over the border campaigning among his Chummy homies. :)
This is a quandary for the establishment.
Do they allow their only viable candidate to be attacked by the other establishment candidates?
Bush is in a box. If he doesn’t go after Rubio, in the face of his funds being cut off, then he is dead and might as well get out.
Rubio is a clone of GW Bush, a compassionate conservative. His big weakness is amnesty, but that was the same with GW who almost split his party over it during his presidency.
...but where is Chris Christie??? Endorsed by the all-mighty Manchester Union Leader???
honestly, I don’t expect Cruz to fare very well in NH, simply because the state is a socialist haven.
The GOPe road map is following right along, down with Cruz, up with Rubio...all the media is in on it...

Looks like Kasich is going away Tues night.
“Surges”?
More like “squeaks” isn’t it? He’s behind Trump by more than double.
Are Cruz’s antics snapping back at him?
Once again, it looks like Trump’s so-called childishness, this time about what Cruz did to possibly steal votes in Iowa, actually has substance and gravitas.
This whole thing is pretty fascinating really I think. We’ll see how it all plays out. Trump seems like he’s pissed that politics is so sleazy and he’s going to call these yokels out on it. About time. Welcomed and refreshing.
As well he should surge into second and I hope Carson is third.
If Trump and Cruz keep taking the bait, we will have president Rubio.
The two Cubans duking it out. Should be interesting
Pollsters sure like to use the word surge! Two or 3 points equals a surge. Asinine.
Jump ahead. We’ve picked our candidate, how do they stack up in appearance, standing beside Clinton, in debates, with undecided voters?
Rubio> Will look like a middle school kid telling his sweet old grandma teacher with years of experience she’s wrong.
Cruz> Will look like a lawyer giving a prolonged explanation of why the sweet old grandma’s life and work have not only been a waist of time but damaging to children.
Trump> Will look like a leader showing an old hag, that he can be just as mean and nasty as she can, and to get out of the way and let a real American run the place.
Worth noting that Trump underperformed his Iowa polls by about 4%, and Rubio overperformed his polls by about 7%. Cruz overperformed by about 4%.
Time for Cruz to Drop out so the GOPe can be destroyed.
(at least isnt that how their logic would work here?)
Trump has only lost 2 points and it seems that most of Rubio’s support is coming from the other candidates. Jeb has gone down, for instance. Cruz, meanwhile, has been static. The media fawns over Rubio and he seems to be surging but will it be enough to win in NH? Not likely. If Trump wins NH, which seems likely right now, it will be interesting to see who drops out and then where their support goes from there.
Not surprised with the weekend Rubio infomercial and the negative Cruz and Trump coverage. Add positive Rubio coverage on Rush, and negative Trump coverage on Rush and Levin. Rubio move was bound to happen :(
I think all along, the plan in Iowas was to dust up Trump...Now Trump, Cruz, and Carson are fighting.
So they can now move their boy into place....like a Chess game, and GOPe is winning ;(
Is Rubio the backlash beneficiary of Cruz’s alleged dirty tricks?
Trump #1....Rubio #2....Carson #3 , after SC watch.
