Trump Loses Zero Ground After Fox’s Unfair, Unbalanced Attack In Debate
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3322510/posts

“Time Magazine found that Mr. Trump took 47% of nearly 55,000 votes. Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) of Florida was in second place with just 10%. The Drudge Report’s poll found more than half of nearly 362,000 voters favored Mr. Trump, well above everyone else,” the Wall Street Journal noted.

never mind. I see now it’s an internet poll which is almost worthless.

Great jump for Cruz and really really bad for Jeb and Walker. Rupert Murdoch’s debate scheme backfired on him big time.

Top 4 are non-traditional candidates — Rovian RINO GOPe elitists are in meltdown.

Hhahaha...just imagine if it is the same polling data on this date, next year!!

Nice. For all the Trump-bashers out there, you can't deny the fact that his presence in the race is allowing the more conservative candidates like Ted Cruz to shine.

Otherwise, the MSM would be focused on taking them out early, leaving behind their sacrificial lamb for Shrillary.

Good to see Cruz and Fiorina among the leaders.

This important explanation of why the assertions by Fiorina and other debate participants who stated that Dodd-Frank must be repealed are important and should be talked about in local communities all over the country.

Without the small banks who have helped their communities by providing startup loans and assistance for entrepreneurs, "main street" could not have thrived and produced jobs. The Democrats' use of this tactic to "choke" off the rights of individuals and small businesses is repulsive and the antithesis of what our Constitution's limits on the power of do-gooders in government was all about.

Debate watchers, absent an explanation of Dodd-Frank's implications for individual citizens and the small business sector, may tend to just hear the words and not realize the critical dangers that D-F poses for their lives and that of their children.

That’s the good news. If Trump goes down, he’s taking Jeb down with him.

It says a “scientific” internet poll.

Carsons support will go to Cruz. That means he is tied with Trump.

I do not see the appeal of Carson. He seems to be a nice guy, but I cannot picture him facing down the Ayatollah or Putin.

That was my thinking too, although something in the debate made me reconsider. When asked about whether waterboarding was torture, Carson said that we shouldn't even publicize what we do to get information from terrorists.

The way he said it impressed me, and I saw a hint of something much stronger under his calm exterior. It remains to be seen.

Best news is that Jeb Bush and his SuperPac are going to be forced to start spending a lot of their advertising money real quick to try to keep him in the top 10.

They wanted to save it and now they’re going to have to start spending. Jeb can’t attempt to change minds by only appearing in front of crowds of 50 people at at a time.

Walker is the one that really surprises me, but I haven’t seen the debate and I hear he didn’t present well.

What a flip between him and Cruz in the last week.

There you go Cruz fans. Good job by your candidate.

Carson appeals to me because:

1) He is not a politician.

2) He comes off honest, sincere, and intelligent, despite being soft-spoken.

Carson deserves to be in the top 3

” Survey Monkey does a good job of polling on weekends. Used by a lot of big corporations for market research and customer surveys.

Trump is the first choice of 19 percent of GOP primary voters, while 15 percent back Walker and 14 percent back Bush. Ten percent support retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson.

Donald Trump Surges in New NBC News/WSJ Poll

Looks like Trump gained 4% in this poll today if we are looking at comparable polls from 8/2 and 8/9. And I think we are.

I am very familiar with Survey Monkey and if you design the sample properly, they are really good.
