I'm SURE a poll from the Communist News Network can be thoroughly trusted and unbiased.

“This is a common polling result from several different polling outfits going back for weeks. Trump loses to Clinton. Rubio and Cruz win. Denying the data does’t make the reality any different.”
And he continues to have record high negative ratings that even beat her’s.
The Trump supporters seem to want to ignore that. According to them, the country loves trump but the data says otherwise.
It’s usually a “well, I know lots of people who are voting for Trump so it isn’t true” lol
It’s amazing to me that, on a conservative web site, there are people that refer to Cruz as a snake. He is the ONLY candidate that cares one bit about the constitution.
Trump is a complete fraud. The Obama of the Republican party. And his followers are just as blind as those that pledged blind allegiance to Obama.
And other polls give advantage to trump
The average Democrat has no idea who Cruz is, they probably confuse him with Rubio. Once the Average Democrat got to know Creepy, slimy, Holier than thou, Cruz, he would drop like a stone.
What makes you think Bernie Sanders wouldn’t be competetive in the general election?
Consider who won in 2008. This isn’t 1972 anymore.
The Cruzio brothers can barely get above 20% in the GOP primary, yet somehow they are going to get over 50% when you throw Dems in the mix. LOL!
CNN spent the entire day yesterday attacking Trump, yeah their poll is trustworthy.
All this says is that people are smart enough to not support the winner while their hopefuls are in the race. The number of Democrats I have talked with who find Trump preferable to Clinton/Sanders belies this entire poll.
According to the article the poll asked seven different questions. Reading how they did this is like reading stereo instructions. Wow.
That's because the conservative voters will quite possibly stay home rather than vote for Trump. And that will not bode well for his presidential run, nor the house or senate candidates that are up for election this year.
Trump is a weapon of the Democrat party. He exists because he pretends to be a conservative. His only claim to fame is that he has never been a public "servant'. He sure knows how to buy them though.
Wonder how they modeled the double sized horde that is coming out to vote in these Republican primaries?
If you are not modeling expected turnout then the poll will undersample Republicans.
Please see my post # 51.
So Cruz and Rubio can’t beat Trump but supposedly they can beat Hillary?
How does that make sense?
Probably took the poll in a corner of Miami where Rubio parties.

You could say much the same about Trump. The libs in the media have not begun to expose him yet. They are waiting for him to win.
The difference between Cruz and Trump is that Cruz is actually a conservative, so he will actually have a credible ideology to campaign on against Hillary.
Not just the primaries! When voters are bombarded day in and day out with "polls" that show their candidate can't win, the psychological impact is priceless: they give up thinking their candidate can win and stay home.
THAT is the media and the polls intended effect!

It's BS. How is it that candidates not polling above 18% in their own party suddenly become formidable opponents to Hillary or Bernie in the general?
