That's what they said about Reagan.
“1) CNN
2) I don’t believe it
3) GOTO 1”
Doesn’t get more basic than that.
She knowingly withheld government documents. She’s a felon and legally ineligible to hold elected office. according to Megyn Kelly anyways.
Heisenberg uncertainty principle: people have no opinion on anything, and in fact have positive and negative opinions for all candidates at the same time... until they are asked the question in certain ways. Then they make their opinion when stuck.
This is a PR ploy of course.
The issue is politicians are the ones never really saying for whom they vote.
I try to be as realistic as possible in my posts.
Personally I favor Cruz as president by 2:1 over any other candidate.
But 40 years of engineering career behind me has taught me to be brutally realistic in my conclusions.
And sadly, Cruz is perceived as more polarizing than many other GOP contenders. Perception is everything in politics.
“He’s too polarizing.”
How?
The current “confidence” of the American public is something like the numbers that follow:
USSC - 23% confidence
Executive Branch - 11% confidence
Legislative Branch - 5% confidence
Ted Cruz has stood FOR the american citizenry and against the NSA, against the IRS and against Obamacare. As a result he was attacked by the liberal media and the GOP congressional leadership.
Compare who attacks him with who has lost the electorate, and you are looking at a true unifier of the American people. However, if you listen to the GOP-e and the MSM, then yes, he is certainly “polarizing” to their desire for tyranny.
This is a classic push poll.
This is 50 smaller elections and only nine of those matter. Who polls better in Wisconsin? NC? Colorado? NM? Florida? Iowa?Virginia? Ohio? Nevada? Then say it doesn’t look good. And, by the way, she doesn’t speak Spanish and Obama is not on the ballot. Can she carry the black vote without him on the ticket? And the validity of polls two years out? See Israel-—one day post-election!
“And sadly, Cruz is perceived as more polarizing than many other GOP contenders. Perception is everything in politics.”
I agree with you.
Cruz plays for his base but there isn’t enough of his base to carry him to the end.
Outside of his base he doesn’t do well.
He doesn’t have much potential to grow his base.
I realize the rallying cry here at FR is that a real conservative will win but really the facts don’t support that.
There were more conservative options in 2008 and 2012.
The voters didn’t go for them though.
CNN is in the dwindling side of history, unable to report even what they see, and using these “push polls” to try to create buzz (not news).
Agendas are expensive beasts to feed, high-maintenance in every way.
Trust not the poll takers! They are trying to Push poll people into accepting Jeb Bush—so Hillary can defeat him.
You're on target by attributing her popularity to the "lady parts" but we shouldn't discount another not so obvious factor. And that is, that majority of people of all colors and national origin HATE the government and the Clinton bag lady has just given the GOVERNMENT the finger with her private email server and the non-signing of her exit forms stating she hasn't kept any government documents. In the eyes of the multitudes she is a hero and heroes get elected!!!
The majority of amerikans are corrupt and immoral. It is no surprise they would vote for her. she is a kindred spirit. That is how Obama got elected and this is why the nation will collapse soon. When you cross the Rubicon of morality, there is no turning back. America is gone. Get use to it.
CNN is the beast’s own network . . . why is anyone paying any attention to this?

People not having confidence in the government has nothing to do with whether or not Cruz is polarizing.
If he were the uniter you claim he is then he would already be making a bigger impact.
He plays to his base but there isn’t enough of his base to get him there.
Kind of like Fred Thompson in 08.
Has America really fallen this far that a criminal is the leading contender for the Presidential election?
Well yes it has and it is going to get much wprse before it gets better.
Libs don’t CARE about Hillary breaking the law.
She’s a LIB. They’ll vote her in no matter what.
This is a poll of all ADULTS, that adds about 5-7% to the Dem margin...
This country is so skrewd.
