Cruz: Surge in SC as backlash against a "Trump coronation" (a la Gingrich 2012 against the Romney coronation), ride the wave of momentum to victories in the SEC states

Rubio: Finish strongly in IA, and ride the media bias to a win in NH and other states

That's really the only ones I can think of. Jeb/Christie/Kasich have a shot at NH, but I don't think any of them have the ability to go the distance, so it would be wasted momentum.

That's a totally inaccurate comparison.

Well, it's not a perfect comparison obviously. But Gingrich's landslide win I thought had as much to do with a conservative backlash at Romney being crowned inevitable nominee after his wins in IA/NH (or "win" in the case of IA) as it had to do with Gingrich's stellar debate performance. What's your take on it?
