Forty-nine percent of potential GOP primary voters say they could see themselves supporting Bush, the former Florida governor whose father and brother served as president, versus 42 percent who say they could not back him.............

Only 32 percent of Republican voters said they could see themselves supporting New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, versus 57 percent who could not (-25);

Only 20 percent said they could see themselves backing Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., compared with 51 percent who could not (-31);

And only 23 percent said they could see themselves supporting real-estate mogul Donald Trump, versus 74 percent who could not (-51).

The numbers for other Republicans who ranked higher on this scale — as well as the numbers for Democrats — will be released on Monday night.

The national NBC/WSJ poll was conducted March 1-5, and the margin of error for the results from 229 Republican primary voters is plus-minus 6.5 percentage points.

Roney did not get 50% in a lot of primaries and that idiot still won. This is also Jeb’s strategy

I visited Panama 2 years ago and I liked it so much I made the decision to move there. Unfortunately, Mrs. 40 didn’t feel the same way. So I am still here...in Obama’s America where so-called “conservatives” support liberal Republicans.

The RNC has worked out to a science how to nominate the least popular candidate. Unless you want to hold your nose for Jebst we mst nominate a conservative.

A fairly small sample.

***************

The small sample equals the much higher ‘margin of error’ = 6.5%.

snip
Secretary of State Hillary Clinton maintains a relative stranglehold on the Democratic
nomination, with 86% of Democratic primary voters saying they could see themselves
supporting her and just 13% saying they couldn’t.

Teasing a poll that probably has high marks for Walker.

Does anyone take a poll from Commiecast which owns the National Barack Channel ?
Please the guy in charge of its Propaganda Division is now off the air.
The hack old moron Toddy has a wife who works for the DNC in DC !

The midterm polling was so off its bordered on a clever conspiracy to suppress Gop turnout.

Enough of these push polls.

At CPAC Lil’ Jebbie bused in supporters and received only 8% of the straw poll. All the others bused in their supporters, too, with the exception of one - Scott Walker. And Walker ended up in second place in that straw poll.

AP: Gov. Walker to sign Right-to-Work bill at Badger Meter in Brown Deer BROWN DEER (AP) — Governor Scott Walker plans to sign the right-to-work bill on Monday, March 9th at a Milwaukee-area company whose leader spoke out in favor of the measure this week.

Walker announced Friday that he will sign the bill at Badger Meter in Brown Deer.

Badger Meter’s CEO and Chairman Rich Meeusen this week said passing the bill will lead to between 30 and 50 new jobs at his factory. He spoke out after a coalition of more than 400 businesses joined together in opposition to the proposal.

The Assembly passed it Friday morning on a party line vote with all Republicans in favor and all Democrats against.

“What we`re gonna be seeing is a weakening of the power of labor over the next couple years and along with that the weakening of the power of the Democratic Party.

It`s almost like what we`re seeing (Monday) is the moment Wisconsin becomes a Republican state,” UW-Milwaukee Professor Mordecai Lee said....." Source

I am looking into Coata Rica. Beaches for the wife, some data centers for me. Plus since I can work from anywhere, why do I need to stay here?

Just remember:

ALL DEMOCRATS LIE!

The clown-media thinks Jeb is the weakest Republican. So, OF COURSE, Jeb will be made to “look good”.

Costa Rica is nice also. It is sad that our “leaders” are causing so many Americans to want to leave the US. I can’t get out of here soon enough.
