is that where we expect the most fireworks or is it coming from other portions of that stage? reporter: i want say it is where we expect the fireworks but then again predicted that in the past debates, maybe trump versus carson or rubio, we haven t seen that many fireworks and we ll have to see tomorrow because, frankly, trump keeps his plans close to the vest and i don t think he thinks about what he ll do until the moment he s going to do it. then again, we have seen a bit of fireworks between the two and told by the campaign the attacks if you will, will be escalating today over the day tonight and the rally today in las vegas and most part trump is relatively tame towards cruz in comparison to others and calling him a maniac in congress for the way that he can t seem to get away with people and questioning southersu subtly his religion and saying not a lot of evangelicals come from cuba. we ll have to see what he comes out with today.
iowa, but up 12 points nationally. in the new poll from nbc news and the wall street journal. that puts him just a few points behind donald trump. cruz and the party s front-runner have mostly been friendly. however, this weekend, trump took a few shots at his new challenger. i don t think he s qualified to be president. why not? because i don t think he has the right temperament. i don t think he s got the right judgment. what s wrong with his temperament? you look at the way he s dealt with the senate when he goes in there frankly like a little bit of a maniac. you are never going to get things done that way. the bigger battle may be between cruz and marco rubio who have been hitting each other for weeks now. here s marco rubio from meet the press. my argument is it wasn t just the intelligence vote. he talks tough on some of these issues, for example, he s going to carpet bomb isis, but the only budget he s ever voted for in his time in the senate is a budget that

thomas. donald trump lashing out at a new poll showing him falling 10 points behind ted cruz in iowa. the poll released over the weekend puts ted cruz at 31%. donald trump back at 21%. trump then tweeting that the poll which is generally considered the gold standard poll in iowa, he says it is biassed and not to be trusted. and campaign manager says that the poll does not account for all of the new voters that trump is exciting. we bring new people in and that s what the polls don t understand. people that never participated in the process are coming out on a saturday or friday night and sending four or six hours with us to learn about the message, make america great again. that was trump s campaign manager. is there anything to his claim? i m joined by the woman that conducted that poll, j. ann seltzer. let s ask you about that issue
the guy that everybody loves to hate in the senate and the guy that everybody loves to hate for p.c. correctness of donald trump? two candidates with very few friends in the establishment. the establishment could find itself having to choose between them. we shall see. steve, thank you so much. when we come back, the jury of five men and three women will soon decide what role if any baltimore officer william porter played in the death of freddie gray. we are live outside the courthouse with more. is always blue. and the kids always eat their vegetables. because the salad there is always served with the original hidden valley ranch. and i m still struggling with my diabetes. i do my best to manage. but it s hard to keep up with it. your body and your diabetes change over time. your treatment plan may too. know your options.
