If Trump is indeed down, it’s because he’s starting to go soft.

Morning Consult seems to be an outlier.

People at FR used to love Rasmussen. Probably not so much now. I wonder if this still holds?

Or will it now be called a stupid polling outfit or a failing polling outfit?

03:01  You know you could see there was blood coming out of her eyes, ah blood coming of her..., where ever...

04:50  Believe me, there's a big difference between Mike Wallace and Chris Wallace.  Because I watched him last night, blood pouring out of his eyes too.

And a failing polling outfit, too. Don’t forget that! All are losers except for Trump! /s.

Overexposure is the media tactic. Any great CEO or executive knows you will only be received well if your exposures are limited.

Dominate the news ad nauseum about fighting with women and blood coming from somewhere? and the public will begin to tune you out.

Facts don't matter in our media circus.

The poll shows the Fox debate team failed in taking Trump out.

He is still leading. Big time.

Another anti illegal immigration speech and this will be laughable.

Going personal on Megyn Kelly was a big mistake however if he pivots and talks issues (illegal immigration) he’ll bounce back up.

somehow I can’t see someone who was impressed by Trump switching to Pastor Kasich or Librarian iCarly

Really? Really?

I shall name them “squishy”

Good news for Trump though
Shows him the belligerent tit-for-tat namecalling act is wearing thin and get back to issues, which is what booted him to the front of the sled dog team

People are discovering Trump's a RINO who just talks louder.

Cruz is an actual conservative, is tough, and isn't an a-hole about it.

Megyn Kelly’s attack on him reflected bad on her. His attack on her afterwards was dumb and reflected badly on him.

I love what he says. I still don’t know how conservative he is on social positions, and a total narcisist (not too far from Obama).

I hope someone like Ted Cruz takes the flag and keeps running the marathon. Not quite yet as Trump is doing a great job protecting the rest of the conservatives from the wrath of the liberal media.

They were quite inaccurate in 2012 if memory serves me right.

“Overexposure is the media tactic.”

So your hypothesis is that Trump would have preferred not to have the spotlight on himself, but the wily media outfoxed him.

Scott Rasmussen sold Rasmussen Reports after the 2012 election. He was forced to let the company keep the name.

Rasmussen Reports is not the outfit that we all remember it to be.

Not so much.

The Suffolk University poll finds that by a 2-1 (55-23%) margin among likely GOP voters (the gold standard), and not the Republican, Republican-leaning registered voters in the Morning Consult poll (not the gold standard) voters felt less comfortable voting for Trump. 55% are now less comfortable voting for Trump

As well, this Suffolk poll found that 54% said they did not believe that the Fox News moderators were unfair to Trump, whereas only 41% felt they were unfair to Trump.

So I guess that 55% and 54% are all stupid now and failures, too?

Trump’s support will all wind up with Cruz, who is just as outspoken, but a lot smarter.

I’m not telling you these polls are correct, just like I didn’t tell you yesterday that that bombshell Morning Consult survey showing Trump rising to 32 percent after the debate was correct. We’re tracking all of the polls this week to see what the consensus says, as that’ll be a reasonably good indicator of where the race really stands right now.

If that's true, why this?

Uh oh: Trump down nine points after debate in new Rasmussen national poll

Remember, he's not telling you it's true. Bwa ha ha ha ha...
