** The above two tables make a strong case that in NH there were only two winners - based on money and days spent by candidate for their votes. **

Interesting! I had the impression that Cruz had a bigger presence in NH. I guess he was really focussed on IA and building his networks for Super Tuesday?
Trump Real Clear Politics Plus 16 February 9th before his bump
Yet Fox never mentioned it nor put Trump on their website last night
Number 5 Rubio was on it at 2 AM.
Dana Perino says Trump can't win South Carolina
She hasn't seen his huge crowds in South Carolina or his Poll numbers
I don’t get how the graph indicates Trump spent less per vote than Cruz. Trump spent more than six times as much as Cruz did, and only got about less than three times more votes.
Cruz got a big bounce after Iowa and he will do well in the south.
We need Bush Kasich and Rubio to all hang around as long as possible. They are preventing each other from consolidating.
Very interesting stats.
