So the two questions I posed and the answers coming in are: 1) People are showing up big time for Trump 2) Rubio damaged heavily by the Christie bashing
If Cruz comes in 3rd, that is huge for him. It keeps his momentum going. Bragging rights. Can Kasich coalesce this high finish with future primaries? The upper midwest is coming up in March. He needs to win somewhere out there.
heavily will only be determined long term. but its one of those senator, you are no jack kennedy moments that wont be going away anytime soon it seems. and rubio may end up being dan quayle as a result. but voters do have short memories in general.
he desperately needs Christie to drop out of the race, which will happen if Christie finishes 6th in single digit numbers, if Christie can somehow shoot up and finish 3rd or 4th with about 11 or 12 %, maybe he stays and he will continue to slam Rubio.....Rubio's camp is not worried about Rubio's number tonight, they are only concerned with that 8 % for Christie at the present moment
