Polling shows the Tea Party is beginning to fall out of favor with voters, receiving a negative 27 to 45 percent favorable.
The media is at it again. Trying to pick our nominee. Sadly, the GOPe will see these numbers and think they can marginalize conservatives again by ignoring their true base of the party and doubling down on Jeb Bush. The left wants Bush to run because they know he’s beatable and they know full well the country doesn’t want a third member of the Bush dynasty in the White House. The left understands our party better than wimpy establishment people on our side.
It’s easy to dismiss this, but it was barely two years ago the national GOP primary electorate made Romney our nominee, so I am not going to believe they’re too smart to vote for Jeb Bush.
How does anybody feel about Rudy Giuliani? Not that I think he is running.
It’s way too early for them to be polling, but one thing’s for sure. The RINOs always “stand by their man.” We have to unite early and pick ONE conservative to vote for. The RINOs always win with divide and conquer. Romney, Dole, et al.
A total Crock of BS. Newsmax had a poll Cruz led, next Romney, Carson who they push at Newsmax did OK, but Christie, Bush, Paul and Rubio did lousy.
Any poll that says the TEA Party has lost its base ignores the Party of NO won big. I see the Tea Party as the catalyst behind the election. Tea agenda against Obama is much more than what GOPe says.
People want Obamacare stopped, border closed, Keystone passed, NSA out of out emails and telephone calls. Economics, we want repatriation of overseas cash, smaller government, less regulations, lower corporate and cap gains taxes.
We want people in IRS, F&F, Benghazi, held responsible.
Conservatives need to coalesce behind one conservative, time to not let 30 percent liberal GOP pic the candidate because we run 8 people vs. their 1 candidate.
How could Jeb be so high. No way.
At the latest mid-term elections all the polling companies were way off.
Quinnipiac Polls were not correct even in polling their own State of Connecticut.
Ignore.
Who the heck are these people polling?
I do not know anyone that calls themselves a Republican that wants Romney back in and sure as hell no one that wants Christie or J Bush...
A poll today for the 2016 election has about as much meaning as any promise that Obama makes...
Totally meaningless....
The GOPe will run a Midwestern governor... With a minority VP...
I certainly hope Cruz stays put in the Senate...
He cannot win a national election in this day and age....
Why not include McCain in to the poll? He has as much chance of getting elected as Romney or Jeb Bush.
Hell throw Bob Dole in there too. He’s rested and ready.
Whatever makes you think that?
Each other.
——[Cruz] cannot win a national election in this day and age....-——
First let say; I’d vote for Cruz in a heartbeat for POTUS....
The fact is he is way to conservative for a majority of the brain dead voters who doesn’t understand the way the country was founded....
The FSA and getsmedat coalition will never vote for him....
Plus the libtard slime machine will go into high gear with the MSM as willing sycophants to demonize, marginalize, smear, character assassinate him to the point of no return....in other words they fear him....
He should’ve run for Governor of NY. Otherwise he’s simply too liberal.
Yeah, they sure dominated the voting in 2014.
Plus the libtard slime machine will go into high gear with the MSM as willing sycophants to demonize, marginalize, smear, character assassinate him to the point of no return....
As if they wouldn't do the same to Mitt Romney or Jeb Bush.
Fact is that, after six years of Obama, the electorate has seen what the left will do if given the chance. Whoever the GOP nominates in 2016 will win. And likely win big.
Accordingly, the enemy that must be defeated for Cruz to become President is not the gibsmedats nor the MSM. It's the GOP-E.
44 - 42 percent for Romney; (+2/14 UD)
38 - 33 percent for Christie; (+5/29 UD)
33 - 32 percent for Bush; (+1/35 UD)
36 - 28 percent for Ryan; (+8/36 UD)
36 - 29 percent for Huckabee; (+7/35 UD)
35 - 26 percent for Paul; (+9/39 UD)
21 - 29 percent for Cruz. (-8/50 UD)
Paul is the most favorably-viewed Republican, while simultaneously one of the lesser-known ones.
