Des Moines Register-Cruz's Crushing Lead

[Kathianne]

I don't know about Iowa's being a bellweather, but I do expect some anti-Cruz rhetoric from Trump anytime now:

Seven weeks from the caucuses, Ted Cruz is crushing it in Iowa.


The anti-establishment congressional agitator has made a rapid ascent into the lead in the GOP presidential race here, with a 21 percentage-point leap that smashes records for upsurges in recent Iowa caucuses history.


Donald Trump, now 10 points below Cruz, was in a pique about not being front-runner even before the Iowa Poll results were announced Saturday evening. He wasted no time in tearing into Cruz — and the poll — during an Iowa stop Friday night.


Ben Carson, another "Washington outsider" candidate, has plunged 15 points from his perch at the front of the pack in October. He's now in third place.


"Big shakeup," said J. Ann Selzer, pollster for The Des Moines Register/Bloomberg Politics Iowa Poll. "This is a sudden move into a commanding position for Cruz."

I'm sorry, I did not see Trump attacking Cruz. In fact as I watched one of his rally's in Iowa. He refused to attack Cruz. I watched the entire thing.

The media is always trying to start some crap, when there isn't any. I just hope Cruz and Trump don't bite. I like Cruz. I think A Cruz Trump ticket would beat hillary.

Trump responded with an attack against the Des Moines Register. Apparently that's a very liberal biased rag.
