I'm giddy, this is Rubio's last chance.

Trump is going to take it. And he'll take the next dozen primaries. It's over. Thank you Cristie. You guaranteed this outcome. Holy crap, we win. (Hey, Cruz, you're simply ugly (ideologically and politically), no one cares about you.)

Trump will lose so badly, he'll be routed so badly, it'll be some true note in modern presidential electoral history. It's beyond laughable. Trump is done.

It's amazing. Now the GOP has only Trump, and he'll lose worst than anyone in modern history. Amazing.

It was really something.

I'm not with you yet on Trump making it. He thinks he can coast on his celebrity. He had literally no ground game in NH.

He doesnt even want it. He'll find a way to lose on purpose, and the Republican party wont allow him to win anyhow.

Rubio is not out of it. He still has the best chance imo. Its either him, Bush, or Kasich. I still say their ticket will be Rubio/Kasich.

NH polls before and after his brain freeze not significantly different. Trump is well ahead in NH polls, 2nd thru 5th very close. The slightest dip, say 1%, could drop Rubio from 2nd to 5th, but probably results in the same # of delegates. I think Rubio will hang on a while longer. Probably not tha case for the single-digit also-rans, like Carson, Fiorina. Well start seeing them drop out soon.
