Funny, thought all you Trump guys believed absolutely in the polls. Fact is, I think the election is far more fluid than any of us suspects. I just don’t see this sewed before May and the end of the primaries. And this is the best chance of an open convention since 1976.

BTW, why do you think it is a hit piece? Just because it shows your man losing?

I was really hoping things would be over by Mar 2 so we can get back to fighting Democrats. Sounds like another couple of painful months on FR.

There are 4 new polls out. Here they are, including the NBC/WSJ poll.

Only the NBC/WSJ poll has Cruz anywhere near the lead.

So for now, it’s an outlier.

Forgot to write that Trump and Cruz are my Co-Number Ones.

So I’m not grinding Trump’s axe here, just observing what’s happening on the ground.

Also, Cruz was endorsed by James Dobson today.

That scares me the most, because while I'd be happy with a Trump OR Cruz nominee, an open convention means NEITHER--say hello to Candidate Marco JEB Kaisch and later President Hillary Sanders...

Personally I think it's a hit piece because I can't imagine Elmer Ted Gantry winning anything. He's not even likable, that has to play into it at some point.

Of course then there's amnesty, TPA where he wrote an article asking to give Obama more power, etc.

Ted Cruz joins the establishment

Who told you that?

I agree. We have a long way to go before we have a nominee. Once some of the others drop out of the race those votes will be going somewhere.
