The 10 and 12 point Cruz lead is history. I am not even sure this 5 point lead will last long enough. Has anybody even seen Cruz lately?

The RCP poll average for Wisconsin is Cruz +6.8. And Cruz tends to outperform the polls while Trump frequently underperforms them.

Anyway, we will have the poll results tomorrow for the only poll that matters, which is the primary voting.

Trump is in full crash and burn mode now. You might want to avert your gaze as the results come in. It is not going to be pretty.

Cruz will win big in Wisconsin. 10% or more and take most, if not all, of the delegates making a contested convention (and the ouster of Trump) much more likely.

Did Little Joe, Hoss or Hop Sing give you that educated prediction ?

I don't think so. Crash & Burned was Cruz on Super Tuesday when his entire "Southern Firewall" collapsed.

Because you say so? LOL.

Cruz has already won in Maine, which last I checked is a Northeast state. And of course Trump is in full self-destruction mode, even as we speak. Trump should win in New York, his home state, although that is likely to be a good bit closer than the polls are suggesting now. As far as the other states, the results will speak for themselves.

Also, it does not matter if Cruz "wins" any of these states. It is not about winning individual battles. It is about winning the war, which is accomplished by the first person to get to 1,237 delegates at the convention. If Trump does not get them in the first round, he never will. If it goes to a second round, as increasingly appears likely, Ted Cruz is going to be the prohibitive favorite to win the nomination.

Those are the facts, Jack.

The fact that Donald Trump does not answer to special interests donors is critical.

Cruz continues to show, week-by-week, that he is underhanded and untrustworthy. He tried to cover up the fact that he took major loans from Goldman Sachs and Citibank. He lied about Ben Carson in order to steal his Iowa votes, then denied all involvement and blamed CNN in a verbal statement which CNN promptly refuted. Though he tries to present himself as a man of the people, the reality is that he answers to big donors and has zero qualms about stepping on anyone in order to get ahead.

Issues stances.

Ted Cruz strongly agrees with

Support & expand free trade

Expand the military

Support American Exceptionalism

Disagree with

Avoid foreign entanglements


Donald Trump strongly agrees with

Avoid foreign entanglements


and strongly disagree with

Free trade
that hurts millions of American families.

Yet, Ted Cruz is the intelligent and honest one who fights for the people?
