Interesting Iowa is closer to Canada than it is to Texas. Perhaps Cruz does better closer to home.

Even the man’s voice grates on my nerves. If you thought he had an over-blown ego before these caucuses…Holy shit, Katy bar the door…The man will be flying above the clouds strictly on fumes from here on out. The delusions of grandeur meter just shot up past maniac, broke the glass, and is headed towards “I’m the new Jesus” territory.
