Trump is 21.2% over Carson, 21.7% over Rubio, 24.6% over Jeb, and 26.5% over Cruz.

770 polled. A much larger sample size than we saw over the Thanksgiving holiday.

I think the Dems and the MSM are starting to hope Trump wins. First, the GOPe has vowed to vote Hillary if that happens. Second, they fear a more conservative candidate. Don’t get me wrong, they hate his position of immigration, but in the long run, others scare them more.

BTW, no freaking way is Jeb pulling 10 percent.

Nope, they hate Trump. Trump will win. The others will be lackluster and be unable to garner votes from crossovers.

In other news, Ted is closing in on double the “won’t be voting” mark. Atta boy Ted!

Oh I agree they hate Trump. That’s not why I think they want him to win. I think they want him to win now because they want to see the GOPe revolt.

I make no predictions on who will win. I just hope everyone votes their conscience and not according to some con job scheme about who “can win.”

With all those endorsements, new campaign staff hires, “First Comments” after public events Ted has had lately, I’m actually hopeful he’ll break 25% of Trumps support mid next week.

Course I’ve been thinking he might for the last couple of months too.

Cruz won’t get the nomination. He’s part of the establishment. It’s Trump’s to lose.

He’s anti-establishment too. I believe there’s still time for Ted to get his numbers up to 10%. Well see.

Change it to likely republican primary voters and you see the sample size is no larger than 200 on any given day.

Do you think Jebbie can win the Kennebunkport coastal region south of Portland?

I don’t think Jeb will officially win anything. No one wants him except the establishment and they cannot do it alone. They have burned way too many bridges. No one is listening to them.
