In recent weeks it appeared as though Ted Cruz may be close to overcoming Trumpmania but, if the latest NBC News poll released this morning is correct, Cruz wasn't as close to accomplishing that as it seemed.
Trump earned 35 percent and was trailed by Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) at 18 percent and Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) at 13 percent.
The real estate mogul also handily led various demographics, including men (39 percent), women (29 percent) and white evangelicals (33 percent).

I believe if Trump wins Iowa and New Hampshire the race will be over, but I also believe he could lose both states and still win by sweeping the south.
