Apparently, Mr. Trump might not be investing enough to build a strong ground game and acquire election database in NH. I thought he was going to invest $100 million in his campaign? Trump resists staff calls to change course - POLITICO

It doesn't seem like he invested in much of a ground game in Iowa either and the resuts speak for themselves. He was up by considerably more in N.H, but it will be intersting to see what the results will be.

I have voted all my life and nobody came to my house to give me a ride. What is this "ground game" BS?

I prefer voting for someone that didn't try to buy the election. If money is what the election is about, why not start a contest as to which candidate can raise the most money and have all money raised paid to lower the national debt?

Most campaign adds make me want to vote for the other fellow or girl.

Did you ever tell a campaign worker you couldn't get to the polls? A well-run ground game will have volunteers making sure people have a ride to their polling place. It's not BS. It's a smart political tool and it's been done for decades and decades.

Trump was/is an idiot if he thinks he's going to win without people ringing door bells, canvassing precincts and getting people to polls/caucuses. Cruz has a well-oiled, massive ground game in place. As do Clinton and Sanders.

CNN reported today that Trump didn't know what a ground game was either, when asked about his Iowa ground game some time ago.

He doesn't even know how to run a campaign.

Today Trump should be in NH and he's in Arkansas.

Strange how he ended up in second place.
