    many people do.

    Santorum won Iowa in 2012 and we know what happened. Huckabee won in 2008 and we know what happened. Heck, Reagan didn't even win in 1980 and we know what happened in the end.

    It will be President Trump. Nothing has changed.

    liberal or conservative doesn't really mean too much anymore. They both are run by basically the same people nowadays. They are vending machines who take your money and tell you what you wanna hear.

    I am not excited at all. I want a strong US. The world is better when it is. 16 years its been going the wrong way. Other than Trump, I don't see that changing. we will see.

    I'd be happy with Trump, Rubio, Kasich even Deez Nutz.....anybody but Ted Cruz. It would be a disaster for republicans if he's the nominee. Clinton would destroy him.

    Rubio might have won the GOP. Rubio was polling around 16% in Iowa, and outperformed. It's only a matter of time before the blue states start eating him up.

    yeah, moderate Republicans like him and believe he's their only real chance in an election so they'll rally around that

    So the new chatter has become 'Viva Rubio' "Viva Cruz' what a country.
    One's father was a Cuban immigrant bartender the others father is a
    Cuban Canadian Evangelical how great it is to have such standouts to prove
    diversity is our greatest strength, especially after our current presidents father
    was a Luo tribesmen Kenyan. Will the next thing down the line be a Muslim
    contending for the presidncy, Utopia?

    Donald Trump's mother wasn't born in the U.S. either. And where was his first wife born? Czechoslovakia?

    Trump's mother was born in the British Isles where 95% of the founders were born,
    more importantly where the basis for our government and our laws were formed
    with the guidelines of 'English Common Law'. That's the difference

    Trump's wife didn't help form his views on what he hopes for in America,
    they were formed long ago!

    You know NOTHING about Politics do you? Absolutely NOTHING. The GOP has RAISED a huge amount of money for the express purpose of defeating Trump. We are talking HUGE. If the Party higher ups do not want you, you are finished. That is a political fact. Many times the party elite do not get involved because they believe that their party's chances of winning are slim. Not this year. Trump cannot get the nomination with 30% of the vote or less. NO one can. The party elite decide who is going to run, and right now Rubio stands the best chance to defeat Hillary. Trump has the worst chance. Trump is finished. The party regulars will fall in line behind Rubio because he is by far, the best chance the party has of returning to the White House. How much are you willing to wager on that? Name your price.

    No real surprise on either side.

    News media need to fill hours of air time so they are over analyzing it as per usual. You can see here who's buying what they are selling.

    Trump getting 24% and ending in a virtual tie with Rubio was not a real surprise? OK then.

    Rubio won't win NH. But he doesn't have to. What he needs to do is beat Kasich, Christie and Jeb by enough to get them ALL out of the race. If he does that, he won NH, just like he won Iowa. If one of them, likely Kasich has a big night and either wins or finishes 2nd to Trump, than the Race for the Not Trump, Not Cruz, goes on, and that hurts Rubio the longer that goes on.
    I believe Trump will win NH, probably easily, but if he does something dumb like skipping the debate again, he might not. And if Trump doesn't win NH, he's in big trouble and might drop out, or go 3rd party in a temper tantrum.

    rubio has no chance in new hampshire. kasich win finish strong behind trump.cruz isn't even eligible to run. if obama (whose mom was born in
    kansas) had to show his birth certificate why is cruz even in the race? I really think trump is only one with chance to win because the ex mayor of san antonio is hillary vice president. He will have more support among the latino voters than either cruz or rubio.Hispanics never trust columbians or cubans!

    Wouldn't say he has no chance. Iowa proved polls can be wrong and Rubio has risen to 2nd in every single post-Iowa poll for NH. If he can swing the undecideds which sit at around 35% according to CNN, he can overtake Trump. The question will be whether people stick with Bush, Kasich and Christie given they have no chance. If they don't they're more likely to go to Rubio.

    I think Trump still favorite in NH, but Rubio has about a 25% chance still to change the final outcome. He's gaining more each day it seems.
