Nope, especially since he won all of the ones in SC and tied Rubio in Florida...not bad

Jeb wins the poll with only 4.6% of the vote! LOL!

Of course, Ron Paul was really good at winning on line straw polls too.

Rand is good at wining on line polls too. Cruz beat Rand by 33 points.

10-12 of these jimokos should pull out.

There could only be 3 reasons they’re in or getting ready to get in.

1: Massive egos -
2. Any excuse to jump on a bandwagon for exposure they can’t get otherwise
3: Watering down the attention any one candidate can get - in an attempt to marginalize them....(like the GOPe would like to do to Cruz and Walker - and get little Senor Jebbie or wet behind the ears Rubio in.

I agree ... glad for Ted Cruz, but his supporters don’t need to believe into over-confidence with “online straw polls”

Same schit as 2012. We are going to wind up with Jeb with all you putzes constantly sticking your finger in the wind. This has to be the most fickle, low information group of people on the Internet. Now they want Huckleberry... the biggest spender and big government hawk of all the potential candidates.

Well then .. I guess the GOPe has accomplished their goal of marginalizing Cruz.

You all should be so happy with yourselves.

Remember this .. even if the GOPe manages somehow to get their go-along-to-get-along-candidate into the primary, for me .. if Ted Cruz is not on the ballot - I WILL BE WRITING HIS NAME ON THE BALLOT. And, so will a lot of other people.
It aint over till its over; so don’t start gloating too soon .. you might just pop a gusset or something .. and we wouldn’t want that. We want you healthy and smiling (like death warmed over), while we elect President Ted Cruz.

I am for Cruz. I believe he says what he means and means what he says and inspires me. However we are losing some people due to the fact that he is voting for the Free Trade Agreement. I have gone back and forth on the trade agreement. I don’t pretend to be smart enough to know if it is good or bad for the country. that and the h-1b thing is making some people distance themselves. I have sent him messages asking him to explain his position so that we could tell others his reasoning. I do not believe he would do anything that he thinks would hurt the country. But we have to have knowledge so that we can keep those people that are concerned with those issues. at first I was a little angry about the h1b thing but then I realized there is always a good job out there for a good man. Im sure people werent thrilled when my Italian ancestors came flooding in and took jobs. but I think we turned out to be an asset to the country

I agree with that, however the Paul comment was rather an unseemly way to point that out.

On the other hand, I don’t think anyone here was going to think this was worthy of a second look anyway.

“I agree with that, however the Paul comment was rather an unseemly way to point that out.”

To an extent, I agree. It was not my intent to compare Ron Paul to Ted Cruz. That would have been unseemly. I was comparing straw polls to straw polls.

I have so much more respect for Cruz and I had no intent to offend you. You are a good man.

FOX “News” says the poll means nothing and Sen. Cruz will not be at their RINO-controlled Romney-controlled “debate”.
