Re: Can Trump Really Win the Presidency?
Cokie Roberts said this AM that winning Iowa didn't mean much, given their track record. OTOH, she said that, if you're perceived as the front-runner, then losing Iowa could be a disaster hard to overcome. IDK how much truth is in that...Here's the thing about Trump--if he wins Iowa, it defies all conventional wisdom, even with the polls. Iowa has always been about ground game. Trump has none. So he has to depend on people going to vote for him on their own. Meanwhile, Rubio and Cruz will have their ground game running overtime. This is also why Hillary will probably win Iowa. Her ground game dwarfs Sanders. (same reason Obama won Iowa 8 years ago). We'll see. Should be interesting.
