That's what happens when the consistent truth resonates instead of silly platitudes and disingenuousness heard for decades, and wet noodle Jebber has abandon the battlefield to Trump.
Bye Jeb.

PPP's newest North Carolina poll finds that Donald Trump's momentum just keeps on building. He's the top choice of Republican primary voters in the state, getting 16% to 12% for Jeb Bush and Scott Walker, 11% for Mike Huckabee, 9% for Ben Carson and Marco Rubio, 7% for Rand Paul, 6% for Ted Cruz, 5% for Chris Christie, 4% for Carly Fiorina, 2% for Rick Perry, 1% each for Lindsey Graham, Bobby Jindal, and Rick Santorum, and less than 1% each for John Kasich and George Pataki.
Trump's favorability rating in North Carolina is 55/32, much higher than we were finding in national polls prior to his entry into the race. Trump's really caught fire with voters on the far right- 66% of 'very conservative' voters see him favorably to only 24% with a negative view of him. Trump is polling particularly well with younger voters (29%) and men (20%).
Jeb Bush had been leading our previous few polls in North Carolina. But he continues to struggle with conservatives. Among 'very conservative' Republicans, only 37% see him favorably to 44% who have a negative opinion of him and only 7% of those voters support him for the nomination, putting him in 7th place in the GOP field. Bush's overall 43/35 favorability is the second worst of any of the 10 candidates we measured that for, besting only Chris Christie's 27/41 standing.

Bye Jeb.
I was never a fan of any of the Bushes.
I liked W better than any of them. I believe he was the more sincere person. He meant well but that’s about it.
Reagan’s biggest mistake was allowing the republican elites to push G.H. W. Bush on him.
Flush Bush! Next, flush Clinton .... Bring in new blood!! This country is a MESS!!!! We don’t need the same old players to “fix” it for us!!
Agree 100%.

At least five Pubbies lead Hildebeast, in NC.
I don’t understand how EVERY Republican isn’t leading, over Cankles, in NC...or any other state besides the completely blue lefty states.
Don’t believe Cruz is at 5 per cent.
2012 my give a hint
50.6% Romney
48.4% Obama
That’s what several polls are saying. Other FReepers have stated that these pollsters can make their polls say what they want them to.
Maybe it’s a concerted effort to keep Ted out of the debates? Because they KNOW he’ll gob smack them all?
Don’t know why I was thinking this was a poll of SC. I guess because it’s an early one that gets more attention.
