Donald Trump continues to dominate the Republican presidential field in Florida — outstripping his nearest rival, U.S. Sen. Marco Rubio — by two-to-one among primary voters, a new Florida Atlantic University poll shows.

Among Democrats, Hillary Clinton has coasted to an even bigger lead, leading Vermont U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders by 66 percent to 22 percent of the vote in that party’s nomination contest, the poll shows.

The survey was conducted Sunday and Monday, in the wake of news about the terrorist attacks in Paris.

Among Florida Republican registered voters surveyed, Trump leads with 36 percent, Rubio is at 18 percent, retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson at 15 percent, Texas U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz has 10 percent, and former Gov. Jeb Bush rounds out the field’s top five with 9 percent.

This is the beginning of the Trump landslide. The Paris Atrocity will make him President.

Jeb will have to be defeated. Too much money, too much Bush pride to just drop out. I suspect he will be around till at least the April primaries.

Does anyone know anyone who wants to Vote for the Jebster.

I have Relatives in Florida. Not a one wants their former Governor elected POTUS. There are a few Rubio folks though.

Too much money, too much Bush pride to just drop out.

The money is getting scarce, hence his letting go of some major staffers (his PAC money is uncommitted and sitting on the sidelines). And speaking of pride...he is dragging his family name through the mud with his poor performance.

This is the beginning of the Trump landslide.

We need the biggest landslide in modern American history. America has to send the message to the leftist, MSM, D.C., terrorist, the criminals, illegals, the greedy, Communist academia and anti-American enemies all over the planet.

We best get it right this time, or America will continue it's decline into an abyss.

The upside of that is what remains of the Jeb campaign will be such a laughably humiliating clown show it may finally convince the whole Bush family to just get out of politics permanently.

And NY street tough Trump is the only GOP candidate to hire the meanest, the nastiest, but the most competent lawyers this side of the Hudson River to ensure that the vermin Dems don’t cheat enough to overturn the election which he will win by a landslide.

Jeb will drop out after losing 3-4 primaries in a row.

When he finishes 4th in NH it will be obvious he is toast.

He can stay in as long as he likes and waste other people’s money but Jebbie is not going to win anything.

I’ve lived here in Florida for 45 years.
I’ve had enough LIES from both Jeb Bush and Marco Rubio.
Go Ted Cruz, a real conservative, not just another guy who is a lying bag of crap

Florida knows the downside of magnanimous liberal elites forcing ‘endless assimilation responsibilities ‘ on the non-elite citizens.Jeb doesn't stand a chance here...
