No doubt Trump would make a better president that Shrillary, but I doubt that she won't be the Dem-e nominee for president. BTW, this was a poll of 1,644 registered voters, which is ell beyond the polls of 1,000 registered voters, which is a large number of respondents.

Trump if he gets to the main show will do better than any GOPe candidate agaisnt any Democrat.

The GOPe always says they need to have moderate candidates like Bob Dole, McCain and Romney. Not good for us with results.

As usual, it’s fun with numbers Thursday. If our candidate is Rubio, Bush, Christie or any other squish candidate, the rats win.

Trump, Cruz or Walker and it is a landslide. The MSM knows it. The Rats know it. And the Establishment knows it. But I repeat myself.

The problem isn’t Trump, it’s that Romney is once again proven right.

Come Hell or high water the Dems just keep holding onto that 47%.

“The Democrats would pick anyone else over the media mogul in the general election as well.”

Wow, there is a surprise! The Rats would pick their own? Who would’ve thought that would happen....

More BS.

Chris Christie’s negatives also seem to be sky high.

Romney was sitting at 51% negative, but this was after he had secured the GOP nominee position, and after the primaries were over.

The primaries have yet to begin and some already have very high negatives.

Had to chuckle this morning at FoxNews — Hemmer and Rove.

Rove had his little whiteboard. It showed negatives for Trump in nearly every category. According to that whiteboard, no person on the planet likes Trump. Even Hillary is more likable than Trump.

[Rove failed to explain why Trump was soaring, double digits over most of the contenders, even zooming by JBush in Florida.]

So will you pick the polls that you like, even when they have over 1,600 respondents and are registered voters?

A poll with a very large number of respondents (1,644) is equal to a poll with 1,000 likely voters.

LoL Sanders and Hillary. It’s not going to be much of contest when these two open their pie holes for the world. Trump will easily win.

The last election voted GOP,
who lied and lied and lied and lied and
passed SECRET tyrannical, unread bills
against the US Constitution and American people.

The GOP is hated.
The DNC is hated.

As opposed to the last election, THIS poll
was not taken of the American people, was it?

Following behind him are Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker at 13 percent and former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush with 10 percent. ...

Which leads us to question why Walker is giving up on Florida . . .

If it was a Trump vs. Sanders race I think you would see turnout go through the roof. If it’s Bush vs. Clinton then I think you would see it set new records for low turnout.

Some more propaganda. Trump can't beat Hillary so the GOP should choose Jeb. I wonder what Obama's polling was at this point? Does anyone think Hillary will keep the same poll numbers once the guns are trained on her and more revelations come out about Benghazi, the Clinton Foundation, and the email scandal.

These polls are irrelevant. The MSM and the Dems are trying to select the Rep nominee. I can recall the NYT among others proclaiming that John McCain was the strongest candidate against Obama. We know how that turned out with McCain losing by 10 million votes and Obama getting the highest number of votes in American history.

If trump focuses on making America great, jobs, and the issues DC has used to ruin the country, he will get votes from every group and strata.

We are sick of Pastel Politicians who only care about their own power.

Remember this thread at FR from yesterday?:

“TRUMP: MOVE NON-CRIMINAL ILLEGALS ‘BACK IN’ LEGALLY, I’LL ‘DO SOMETHING’ WITH DREAMERS”?

“Come Hell or high water the Dems just keep holding onto that 47%.”

Which is why if the nation is to survive as anything like its best days, further demographic shifts have to be avoided. The extreme left (i.e. the current mainstream left) has a fairly straightforward formula for ensuring a perpetual majority and control of the Presidency: 1) increase the number of government employees. 2) Increase the numbers of voters dependent upon entitlements. 3) Fuel racial, religious, and gender divisions and tensions. 4) Promote immigration (legal or illegal) of groups likely to vote socialist/Democrat. 5) Resist stricter voting laws, and push for ‘universal’ voting. 6) Fuel class divisions / class warfare. etc. etc.

It's worked for them.
