Ronald Reagan suffered a surprise defeat by George H. W. Bush in the 1980 Iowa caucus, but the Gipper soon set about re-engineering his campaign and he pulled off a landslide victory just weeks later in New Hampshire.

Ronald Reagan suffered a surprise defeat by George H. W.

And that was the last time anyone even remotely conservative won in a contested GOP primary there.

NH had not yet turned permanently liberal in 1980; so Reagan’s job was much easier than Cruz’s will be.
