The fiscally conservative group Club for Growth's super-PAC, which has been openly warring with Donald Trump, released a new poll on Tuesday showing the GOP front-runner falling to second place in Iowa.
The poll found Ben Carson in first place with 21 percent support, followed by Trump at 16 percent, Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) at 11 percent and Jeb Bush and Carly Fiorina with 10 percent each.
It’s the first poll since late July to find that Trump isn’t in the lead in the first-in-the-nation caucus state.
The Club for Growth credited Trump’s decline to a $1 million ad buy the group placed in Iowa, highlighting Trump’s past as a Democrat and support for liberal policies.

They need to change their name to Club for Cheap Labor and Open Borders
Correct Title. Please fix.
Club for Growth super-PAC poll shows Trump drop in Iowa
Good grief. I’m not a Trump fanboy but is the best use of their donations?
Well Trump is a world class executive. Let’s see how he solves this problem.
You never know what he will do. I have no doubts that he will compete and end up on top.
Those sound like really super conservatives.

The BS artists is coming out of the woodwork to smear Trump. They are scared Trump might make it as President and expose them for who they are, anti Americans communists.
Club for Cheap Labor and Open Borders
LOL....deadly accurate.
Club for Lies - the Bushbots, Rove, Bennett, and assorted other crony capitalist pimps.
Hmmm, their advisors are Sharpton and Jackson?
Wouldn't it be amazing if they fought that hard against the dummycrats? Instead, they are actively supporting them!
How loving the reports are for the donor class when they support Government cronyism. The timing here indicates that they are trying to tarnish Trump and build up Carson because they feel they can afford to have him as front runner and crush him just before the Hawkeye cockeye. With Trump as front runner, if they try a quick surprise, he can outspend and crush them.
Club for Growth? Can you get this information from a reliable source?
This group, Club for Growth, has contributed heavily to Cruz.
This is why union & state pensions going broke around the country. They want to play with the big boys, share the power at their member's expense.
$1 million isn’t all that much. Iowa already has 35,000+ ads scheduled for $22+ million. Bush and Rubio and their PACs are spending around $5 million each.

It’s not about what the others are spending. None of the other ones are doing negative advertising against Trump except for Club For Growth. The negative ads are working. The non-negative ads aren’t.
If that’s the case, Trump’s going to melt like Hillary hit by a bucket of water as actual voting gets closer.
OK....
So an organization “Ostensibly Conservative” holds a poll and I am sure honestly lets the chips fall where they may...
And so many on this thread jumping on the I told you so, or testing the wind to see what is popular and trendy...
Whoopee dooo
