Quite possible. I think voters who see Cruz as too strict/severe/stern might turn to Rubio as an alternative.
That's an interesting theory, if that proves true then Rubio really could pull off an upset. A lot of Cruz's voters are highly conservative and motivated to vote though. And plus, Cruz has done well enough for his supporters to justify their vote for him, they don't feel as though they need to turn elsewhere just yet.

Possible? Yes. Nevada caucus turnout is usually low, and polling is just awful.

But I'm afraid turnout looks to be far higher than it was four years ago. Let's hope this doesn't mean good news for Trump.

So yeah, it's possible, but it is not probable. However, a Trump win with under 35% would probably be a disappointment for his campaign.

I really doubt it anymore.. Maybe a strong 3rd? Plus Trump should win Clark county easily.

I'm guessing Rubio gets negative votes the way these caucuses are going.

Why would Mormons be enthusiastic about someone who left their faith?

LOL @ me for thinking a Rubio upset was possible... I really dislike Trump and I'd love to see him lose, so maybe I was just being optimistic here. So while Trump winning doesn't surprise me, it's really scary that Trump has won 3 out of 4 states to have voted so far.

And the momentum ramifications less than a week from today. All he has to do is have a decent performance in the debate or make another one of the candidates (namely Rubio) look really bad, which is his specialty considering Rubio is an empty suit lightweight.
