“Polls are for the satisfaction of the propagandist that paid for them.
Cruz is the only candidate that is taking in significant funding.
34 million to date.
Solid proof that he is on top by an insurmountable margin.”

Yeah OK. The same way all those polls in 2012 were wrong and Romney was going to win in a landslide.

Romney never polled in front.

“Yeah OK. The same way all those polls in 2012 were wrong and Romney was going to win in a landslide.”

Polls in October 2016 do matter, though they are not totally accurate as we saw last November. But polls in June 2015 in a 16-way primary race where the candidates range from less than 1% to 11% is largely insignificant — particularly a national poll.

We saw in 2012 how many shifts there were in frontrunner status even before the first votes were cast in Iowa. So to compare the polls today with Romney’s numbers in October 2012 is an absurd comparison. It’s more than safe to say that at this point — the polls have very little meaning.
