Last Night – Between 8 and 9 p.m., when Cruz answered questions from Anderson Cooper and GOP voters in Wisconsin, CNN averaged 2.78 million viewers, 853,000 of whom were in the demo. Between 9 and 10 p.m., when it was Trump’s turn, CNN averaged 4.04 million viewers, with 1.33 million in the demo.


Winning elections is all about voter enthusiasm and how energized the population is to get to actually show up and vote.

I’ll be watching the NCAA Men’s BB tourney in a few days, and if my team is down by 15 at the half

Who do you think will win it all? I've got to go with N C.

The Walker endorsement will hurt more than help.

Walker has approval ratings lower than Obama in Wisconsin. Check the latest polls.

Also, the polls that have Cruz ahead only seem to include registered republicans. The poll that includes everyone (WI gas an open primary) Trump is ahead and Cruz is third.

Trumps not going to win Wisconsin. To many negative forces have conspired against him.

Vote Trump.

"The Marquette poll is supposed to be the premier poll for Wisconsin politics."

Not with a "margin of error of 5.8%".

"One poll of 6,000 from Optimus Research"

For those who bothered to actually read the internals, the takeaway is Undecided and thus Cheeseeaters are in play. A good thing.

No matter how much you wish or who you vote for, Roe v. Wade will remain untouched for decades and decades more and may never be revisited again.

This election will destroy the Conservative RINOS and it’s by your own hand this will happen.

At 69 years old Trump will not want to go down the rabbit hole of a 3rd party loss. He loses the nomination it is on to some other adventure. Take the airplane and the trophy wife somewhere for some quality down time. The Trumpsters will have to do their own party.

And apparently Kasich got more viewers and interest than Cruz. Which is just wrong!

Half the country was still in the evening commute during Cruz’s portion of the program.

I would not put much stock in ratings comparisons unless it was head to head.

However, with the advent of rapid, engaging and transportable communication their grip on information has diminished severely. It is no longer necessary to take to the streets just to identify there are more of us than them.

Understandably, this is a source of much consternation – and as a direct consequence the owners of the social media communication platforms have been enlisted, many corrupted, to aid the modern usurp.

Everyone would be wise to remember, from the perspective of those in power, information is used to manipulate behavior. Polls are tools, we have continually warned of “agenda polls”, “push polls’ and polling done by Political Public Relations firms on behalf of the people who pay for them.

I read thru 100s of posts on FR. Some make me laugh. Some I want to toss the laptop out a window. But on occasion, I read a nugget like this that makes it all worth while.

He also said planned parenthood is a good organization
