Trump dropping the F-bomb was disappointing to see. Having looked at it closer since I last posted, Ted Cruz received about 34,000 more votes than Carson, having received 3 votes for every one person who voted for Carson. Cruz received almost 52,000 votes, Carson received over 17,000. I just can't see the voters Carson supposedly lost making enough impact on the election and also agree that Trump is going off about it too much. When you consider that Trump was slamming Ben Carson very recently, it shows how quick he is to change when he wants to side with somebody for personal gain, which would be damaging Cruz's reputation. Considering that Cruz gained some considerable ground this week when it comes to the issue of his citizenship, Trump had to find something to pounce on.

The percentages are pretty close between Cruz, Trump, and Rubio in Iowa - 28, 24, and 23 respectively. The numberical vote difference, however, is that Cruz received almost 6,500 votes more than Trump and 8,500 more votes than Rubio. Looking at the actual numbers, it isn't as close as the percentages indicate. Cruz ran a strong ground game in Iowa and was able to pull it out. Whether he will carry it in New Hampshire - that will be a lot harder to win - remains to be seen.

I have always held the view that marriage is between one man and one woman, but it has never been one of the larger issues with me until the past two or three years when the LGBT movement has grown significantly due to big business, the media, and activist judges. Homosexuality has run rampant in this country, the legislation ultimately being the stamp of approval. This is definitely a movement that can be used to punish Christians and others who merely disagree with it and choose to live a life based on the values of The Bible.

Just last night in the super bowl the halftime show practically was all about Beyonce slamming police officers and LGBT pride. Social liberals never seem to be satisfied with just agreeing to disagree, they have to insert their views into public events or organizations designed for a different cause.

I have never been so frightened for the future of our country, I have never been so frightened for the now of our country. We are morally bankrupt and as much as I wish we could turn things around, I think we have gone too far down now to be able to turn this around.

I don't think anybody is saying Cruz's caucus tactics actually changed the results though, the results were modified depending on how many Carson voters actually switched because of the announcement that he was hanging it up.

Breitbart News has the timeline established as to how and when the Cruz campaign sent out the messages. According to the article, Carson had already clarified his intentions to stay in prior to the time that the Cruz campaign sent out their messages directing poll workers to recruit Carson supporters. http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/...-iowa-cnn/
