Helluva spread.
Rubio still too damn close.
Jeb is surging.
Go Jeb....
Jeb...is GONE.
guess I needed to put /s
Time to consider coalescing around a candidate to win in November
SC was a state tailor made for Cruz.
He finished third, didn’t win a single county and got no delegates.
If he couldn’t win in conservative SC, where can he win?
If Cruz falls behind Rubio in NV. It will be very hard for him to win anywhere except maybe TX.
Super Tuesday will be interesting to say the least. The problem is that Cruz and Rubio are burning through cash like everything and Trump isnt.
1 billion to take the White House. ONE BILLION. Thats both the primaries and the general.
Cruz has a lot more money than Rubio. And I will be damned-I will make calls for Cruz to tell those people who are not Floridians not to vote for Rubio. Us Floridians know that Rubio is a liar and a hack!
Well you had better get to it because it looks to me he will replace Cruz in the second spot.
Check the results again. They are tied for 2nd place.
She is close, thats for sure.
This is REALLY gonna get to be good. Rubio will pick up Bush GOPe voters and that will not be good for Cruz. I think Trump is OK till super tuesday. That will be something to watch.
I disagree - Bush hates Trump and Rubio and is supporters and delegates will go to Cruz
WRONG. The GOPe will back Rubio. Doesnt matter what the hell Bush thinks at this point.
Trump doesn’t need to spend as much money because the media talk about him absolutely non stop. Non stop.
Rubio had the SC endorsements. Also, the negative ads, Glenn Beck and the Carson fiasco in Iowa didn’t help.
It’s hard to appear as a good Christian when you have the actions of a jerk. If I didn’t know better, I would think his advisors are working for the Rubio campaign.
Someone should check on Rosie O’Donnell at some point on Wednesday.
