Iowa demonstates that much of Trump's support is coming from crossover dems.

His only chance is Cruz and Rubio splitting the rock solid R vote, which will soon include Carson's evangelical support. And getting the labor union, blue collar and disenfranchised hard core democrat voter to cross over to the Republican primary. And there truly are enough of those to make it happen for him. In fact his support among that group is so strong it would be interesting to see what he could have done running as a dem. Last night's vote makes it even a stronger chance that he mounts a 3rd party or independent run.

His support is solid but so is his opposition. And that group was about 75-25 against him. Rubio now has some momentum since Cruz' support is sort of fixed as well. Your R nominee is likely Rubio or Cruz with the Donald a spoiler. Deeper looks at the polling numbers have shown a registered dem who was crossing over to support Trump all along. His people love him for sure so he isn't going away. And of course it is ridiculously early so anything can happen. But his support among traditional R's doesn't seem to be sustainable to the point of getting the nomination.

Hillary and her supporters were the big losers among the dems. Much of the Sanders vote was a vote against her. Rather than for the angry, old, bombastic national socialist. I really don't see her being president. Although she has the establishment dems on her side including the president. Which may actually be working against her since there is so much negative feeling for the Obama WH, Wasserman-Shultz and their dispirited gang. Even democrat women are not enthused.

The Democratic party could nominate a ham sammich and it would beat ANY Reptilican candidate.

I agree there are some Dem cross overs to the Donald. Just as there are GOP anti establishment going for him too. But they will not go with Cruz nationally, imo. That's why you have white supremacist, David Dukes, joining far right evangelical endorsing the same candidate, Trump. I think Palin's rambling speech and reminders of the disaster she was along with not going to the debate last week, hurt Trump in the end, probably helped Rubio.


Going to be an interesting election year for sure.

40% of Iowa voters in the democratic caucus identify as socialist. Number are similar in New Hampshire. Other than Vermont... there are few other states that fit that pattern on the democrat side. Clinton won Iowa and will lose New Hampshire. But until Sanders does well in Nevada and South Carolina it doesn't mean much. White states with lots of self-identified socialists for the democrat voters aren't very indicative on the dem side.

Classic, coming from a moron I guarantee is barely surviving. Take your choice - you have a corrupt old white bitch; admitted socialist old white man; or a "ham sammich". I recommend you go with the "ham sammich".

Real Democrats are not voting for Trump. His appeal is really to non-political types Who have grown to hate politicians, that part is understandable. They just choose an ass pimple to express Their displeasure.

Better a ham sammich than the national laughing stock the Reptilicans have become.

I wonder if the Dems will trot out weird Uncle Joe Biden and Pocahontas if Hill goes in the clink.

A ham sandwich is looking better and better everyday compared to that dysfunctional bunch
