Trump Expands Big Lead In Florida, Up In Ohio
Breitbart ^ | March 9,2016 | by JOHN NOLTE

Florida

According to Quinnipiac, despite 10 days of facing down the GOP Establishment/DC Media Death Star, Trump has actually expanded his lead in Florida. Currently, the billionaire businessman leads favorite son Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL)79% 45% to 22%, a full +23 points.

Last month, in this same poll, Trump was up by just +16 points over Rubio, 44% to 28%.

Only 6% of voters remain undecided. Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX)97% earns 18% support. John Kasich sits at just 8%.

Trump also leads in the demos:

Trump leads Rubio 39 – 27 percent among women and 50 – 17 percent among men. Self-described Tea Party members go 48 percent for Trump, 40 percent for Cruz and 9 percent for Rubio. Trump gets 39 percent of white, born-again evangelicals, with 30 percent for Cruz and 21 percent for Rubio.

In the new CNN poll, Trump is up +16 with 40% to Rubio’s 24%. Cruz sits at 19%, Kasich 5%.

Ohio

The race for Ohio is much tighter.

According to Quinnipiac, Trump leads current Ohio Governor Kasich by +6 points, 38% to 32%. A month ago, Trump led by +5 points, 31% to 26%. Both men are gaining support. The good news for Trump is that his lead has remained stable.

Cruz earns just 16% support. Rubio’s collapse continues with just 9%.

Details:

Cruz gets 38 percent of Ohio Tea Party members, with 33 percent for Trump and 14 percent for Kasich. Kasich gets 32 percent of white, born-again evangelicals, with 29 percent for Trump and 24 percent for Cruz.

Voters 18 to 44 years old go to Trump over Kasich 41 – 24 percent. Trump gets 38 percent of voters 45 to 64 years old to Kasich’s 35 percent. Kasich gets 38 percent of voters over 65 years old to Trump’s 33

After Rubio’s performance last night, Trump will continue to gain
ground in FLA.

Rubio came in 3rd in two contests last night, and 4th in two. His support will continue to drop in FL. Kasich did pretty good in Michigan, but he had spent a lot of time and a lot of effort there.

Most importantly, the barrage of negative ads by the neo-con artists appear to have fallen largely on deaf ears.

Trump is correct. I live in FL Rubio is NOT well liked.

Marco Rubio: Brother-in-law is a convicted drug dealer ...Orlando Cicilia, http://www.businessinsider.com/florida-senator-marco-rubios-brother-in-law-is-a-convicted-drug-trafficker-2011-7

Media doesn’t mentioned how Rubio flunked out of college & attended foam parties (where gays ‘enjoy’ each other in a foamy swimming pool)
http://www.esquire.com/.../marco-rubio-boots-foam-party/

RUBIO: “The truth is, when I was in college I bought some boots like that, and remember the old foam parties? Remember that? You don’t remember that,” Rubio said, because no one remembers losing their dignity at a foam party (whatever those may be). “I bought some of those and when I left the foam party they were white. Because the foam washed the dye out of it.”

Peak Trump!

Trump is doomed. Doomed I say!

Trump has been stuck in first place for months, with no progress, and he’s still stuck in first place. It’s time for him to give up, drop out, and throw his support to Jeb.

It’s Jeb’s turn, isn’t it?

[Note: There may have been a wee bit of sarcasm in my post - a comment that is necessary because, despite my best efforts, my words are not all that different from the over the top anti Trump posts.]

The barrage is just starting:

“a GOP-sponsored “anti-Trump” air campaign that is growing by the week... from 15% of all GOP spending on TV advertising during the first week in February to 62% last week. “

Other than feeding consultants’ children it’s not accomplishing much.

CNN/FOX: Trump has peaked and if he keeps winning, he’ll lose big. This is very similar to global warming, which causes cold weather. So there ya have it.

So potentially Trump > Cruz + Rubio in FL.

That’s impressive.

Just like 2000, Florida is pivotal in Nov.

There will be massive cheating in Ohio to make sure Trump doesn’t win.

He’s been mired in first place since June. I just don’t know how this Trump stays in the race.
