If Cruz is still in on Super Tuesday, I look for him to win several of the dark red states that the bases adheres to his foolishness.

Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi. I've got Rubio taking Colorado, Nevada, Minnesota, Wisconsin, and Utah.
 
Jeb Bush says if he doesn't finish in the top three in the New Hampshire Primary he'll reconsider his run for the GOP nomination.
 
No, I didn't. There is no implication that I meant always. I didn't even say/imply usually.

Kind of off topic Huff...

I'm just starting a movie called " The Big Short".

I know you are a movie critic, so I was curious how true this movie is? All the reviews I read where people liking it, but we're also Sander supporters.

Thanks man.

From the polling he should get Mama Bush out of the cold snowy weather and drop out tonight.

Haven't seen the movie, nor do I know the true story. Let me know if it's good.
 
NH GOP Suffolk:

Trump 29%
Rubio 19%
Kasich 13%
Jeb 10%
Cruz 7%
Christie 5%

RCP average:

Trump 31.1%
Rubio 15.1%
Cruz 11.7%
Kasich 11.1%
Bush 9.7%
Christie 5.1%
Fiorina 4.0%
Carson 3.0%

Either way, some are falling significantly, others are rising.

I read the book it's based on. I haven't caught the movie yet, but the book is factual.

Book was good. Basically profiling the few guys on wallstreet(in particular one guy who's on the spectrum and managed to see it before anyone) who recognized the housing bubble and were able to profit from it. Not necessarily noble heroes, but they did try and warn everyone including the FED that the collapse was coming and no one listened.

Did a good job exposing how the banks, rating agencies, and the wallstreet thieves guild were all working together and turning a blind eye to their shady way of doing business despite the impending doom it was about to bring.

The movie, like most, may have taken a few liberties but for the most part it is factual. They do a very good job of explaining the full situation and how everything imploded.

A lot of real numbers that people don't know about.

They seem to correct any liberties taken in the movie to what really happened.

Also recommend Liar's Poker, and Flashboys by the same author. He also wrote The Blind Side.
 
Texas, Tennessee, Oklahoma ? Cruz should be strong in those states I would think.

They haven't updated it in a while:

Oklahoma

RealClearPolitics - Election 2016 - Oklahoma Republican Presidential Primary

Neither has Tennessee

RealClearPolitics - Election 2016 - Tennessee Republican Presidential Primary

Texas Cruz is leading, which is to be expected

RealClearPolitics - Election 2016 - Texas Republican Presidential Primary

Rest assured, Oklahoma will go with whomever the GOP candidate is in the general. This State is the reddest of red.
