Sorry Rush but Bush “internal” poll numbers don’t add up, no matter how much you want them to
Coach is Right ^ | 2/16/16 | Kevin "Coach" Collins

Posted on 02/16/2016 8:45:37 AM PST by Oldpuppymax

Another day brings another dive into Ted Cruz’s tank for Rush Limbaugh. Rush is giving us “Inside baseball- come closer and I’ll give you the REAL story” stuff on how Donald Trump is worried about a resurgent Ted Cruz and a gaining Jeb Bush. Rush “knows” that people are appalled by what Trump said last Saturday night.

He talked about an “internal poll” “leaked” to the Cruz-supporting/Trump-hating Redstate.com.

The “internal” poll comes from the hapless campaign of Jeb Bush’s super PAC, the open borders/common Core supporting Right to Rise. It shows Ted Cruz at 24% just off Trump’s 26% and of course Bush is third at 12% with Marco Rubio at 11%.

Even in Common Core math this adds up to 73%. So Rush, where are the other 27%? Are they evenly divided – that would put both Ben Carson and John Kasich ahead of Bush; are they “undecided?” In that case the margin of error must be laughably high; and by the way what was the MOE and number of respondents?

So what else has Rush deigned to share with us about how his candidate is doing in South Carolina?

“Cruz is out preforming his poll numbers,” Rush says. Okay let’s look at that assertion. In Iowa, Cruz...

Rush’s lack of discrimination is why many
simply don’t listen to him and his
hyper-RINO replacements anymore.

Every time there’s a primary season, Rush goes crazy.

Rush isn’t a real conservative. If he were, he’d know that Trump is everything.

I haven’t listened to or read any of the transcripts from the show in the last week or two. Rush is quoted out of context frequently so I always hold my judgment until I take a much closer look.

Rush is a conservative, Trump is not. If you don’t get that maybe you are not the conservative. Anyway is it obvious the person on the rise to become the anti-Trump is Marco Rubio. It will happen.

Indeed. This internal poll from Jeb’s camp is like garlic to a vampire for the Trumpets. Every time anyone refers to it, he/she is attacked by squads of them from out of nowhere.

You forgot to add “Oxycontin addict who hired a fairy to sing at his wedding” like some others of hour ilk have described him. Just saying.

Rush had his own agenda, plus because of disability, he can’t hear public sentiment. He read, and selective read only. He had no idea how angry we are with Bush, Obama, GOP.

“You should changed your handle to DriveByPoster”.

YES!! YES!!

I AGREE 100% ...... and here’s what I’ve known for years.

RUSH showed his true colors the day before G.W. tried to
force is Immigration Jamb-PLAN! Yeah, the one that led to a real Political Earthquake, by people melting down the switchboards!! Yeah, that one. The VERY DAY before Rush takes a caller that was Hispanic..........and he asks the guy are you a HISPANIC? , The guy was Illegal. Well, RUSH signs off his show with...” Well DON’T Worry.......THINGS are about to get MUCH, MUCH, BETTER For YOU! TRUST ME!”.

That was years ago, and at that very moment the curtain was pulled back for me, ....... RUSH and the BUSH’s ARE all on the same AGENDA............PRO ILLEGALS, and to He— with the real citizens of the USA. RUSH is nothing more than a cheap form of Entertainment, for the sake of ruining the Country that our founders built!! Like it or not. That’s the Bottom LINE. SEE YA.......”EL-RUSHBO!!!!”

Glad to see you finally see the light. Never thought it would happen. Had you pegged for a paid Cruz operative. Welcome aboard.

What are these Jeb internals? I’m not listening to Rush today.

Also - I’m a Trump supporter, but this blame Bush stuff is overboard..

Tactically we went in a kicked the crap out of them, strategically, well Bush had a tendency to be a wimp at times when confronted by liberals..

No WMD’S? Wrong Donald..
Bush to blame for 911 - Wrong Donald

I don’t know if this is just Bush bashing from Trump, I know he hates Jeb.. I initially thought the only reason Trump was in this thing was to take our Jeb, then maybe drop out..

Jeb screwed him over on some deals in Florida, I believe.. I’ll have to find a source if anyone wants one..

Sure. Trump is right about everything. He’s a God to those who worship him. Rush better watch himself.
