Quote:Has there ever been a year where the Establishment completely lost control of the primaries like this year?

 

Ron Paul technically won Iowa in 2012, so it isn't surprising to see an outsider like Cruz and Trump do really well in Iowa.. Let us wait until the end of the month to say the establishment has lost control. I wouldn't be surprised at all to see an establishment candidate like Rubio, Bush, or even Kasich make a miraculous rise out of nowhere to end up winning the nomination, guaranteeing a victory for the Democrats. Rubio almost did it, but that disastrous debate performance may have just delayed the inevitable.
