I don't have a strong feeling about the Republican winner, but right now I would have to give the edge to Trump with Cruz coming in a close second. I'm going to go out on a bit of a limb on the Democratic side, however, and predict that Bernie Sanders will prevail over Hillary Clinton. Anyone else want to play?

My predictions: Republican: in order, Cruz, Rubio, Trump - Democrat: Sanders
I know, I am really sticking my neck out on my Republican prediction...I just think some Trump supporters will change their mind, and Rubio is surging.
If Trump wins, especially if he wins big, it's all over...he will win out easily.

I should have stayed with my first instinct, which was Cruz. He seems to be pulling ahead.

Well, I did get Cruz, and came close on my other predictions. Now, let's see how much of this win for Cruz carries over to NH...and Rubio's strong third.

Yeah, we both did. It looks like Hillary got 49.9% and Bernie 49.6%. Hillary won six deadlocked districts with a coin toss - she won all six coin tosses! Must have been a two-headed, or two-tailed coin!
I don't expect Cruz to win NH...Trump and Rubio will battle it out for that state. Cruz's next big test is South Carolina, which I think he has a good shot at winning.
