Panelist on “The Lead” with Jake Tapper

Juleanna Glover: “I don’t think anybody is dropping out after this, no matter what the results are. The next debate, we all know is Saturday night, that’s not that far away. We already saw how badly Rubio was wounded by that. The governors that are in the race right now—Christie, Bush & Kasich—all do exceptionally well in these debate formats. And they’re going to try and do well again…. I wouldn’t be surprised if there would be a lot of Bush, Kasich and Cruz donors looking to ensure that Christie was well enough funded to stay in….”

“I think he [Ted Cruz] and his people are focusing on South Carolina. They know he’ll do middlingly well here; he’s not necessarily going to pop up and do phenomenally well. But South Carolina is where he’s going to play well. However, for Kasich or Christie, that is where I think it could be a little bit tougher going. Let’s say both of them do well coming out of New Hampshire. They get to South Carolina and—I think it was Christie’s folks who said today ‘we’r just starting to focus on South Carolina’; you needed to be focused on South Carolina months ago. And Kasich’s folks are saying they’re now focusing to pivot on Michigan—and Michigan isn’t until March 8th. So, this whole race has been totally unexpected in so many different ways, and I wonder if some people are just beginning to figure out what their next step is.”

[Re: Michael Bloomberg] “I am not a Trump fan. I think there are probably a whole lot of other conservative Republicans who are also not Trump fans. I’m not saying that we would support Bloomberg, but I do think there would be an openness to a different third-party option, should Trump be the nominee. If it’s a Trump and a very weakened Hillary—and his pollsters are telling him there’s a way to slip through there with 40, 42%—it wouldn’t be surprising.”
