TeaVangelicals , aka Chri$harians, are busy re-writing the Go$pel of Pro$perity to reflect their family values…
Did Jefferson Davis wear a combover? Let’s discuss what really matters to GOP voters in SC, shall we?
I’m not too sure there are any white Christians of evangelical or other persuasion still living in SC any longer. Let’s just make the distinction between Pharisees and devil worshipers…the devil supporters being the more pious and sane.
Probably to *ell.
Let’s get serious here. Once you’ve been Christie’s bitch you don’t want any other Republican, right?
That 12% will go to whatever candidate who promises to make a pilgrimage to the Holy Land and blows up Iran while there. They don’t ask for much besides blasphemy and eternal war…nuclear winter optional.
The hair is actually an emergency parachute. Trump knows how Patsy Cline and the Big Bopper died. He’s taking no chances, especially with that Cuban Canadian holy roller gunning for him.
Paul’s go to Trump.
Fiorina goes to Bush
Christie’s go to Kaisch.
South Carolina is a “fall in line” state. The problem is there is nobody from the establishment to fall in line with or behind. The plan was to fall in line behind Rubio but Christie made that difficult and then quit the race. Jeb will be barnstorming W and there is no way to make sure Hillary gets elected than campaigning with W. That leaves Kasich, a northeastern moderate with little money in a state that values high cost TV negative advertising.
If Trump had won Iowa many people would be saying today the GOP race is over. After winning New Hampshire, if Trump wins South Carolina he becomes very hard to beat. But the same can be said if Cruz wins South Carolina except that Cruz has issues in non caucus states north of the Mason-Dixon line. But I do think a 3rd place finish behind Cruz and Trump or Trump and Cruz is about the same a 6st place finish behind Rubio.
The notion that endorsements from even popular politicians have much effect on the voting public was already dubious, but this election cycle it may actually be counterproductive.
Cruz wins a close race in SC. Trump has momentum but the ground game of Cruz has been dug in for some time and he is very crafty. He is going to wrap up the mostly Evangelical Christian vote. Jeb is done. Rubio is really struggling. Kasich is a non issue in the south. Carson, as much as i like him is just not getting traction and seems uninterested as of late.
At the end of the day, establishment is out! Outsiders are in!
