Poll: Fiorina rockets to number 2 behind Trump in GOP Field

CNN ^ | September 20, 2015

Carly Fiorina has rocketed into second place in the Republican presidential field on the heels another strong debate and Donald Trump has lost some support, a new national CNN/ORC poll shows.

The survey, conducted the three days after 23 million people tuned in to Wednesday night's GOP debate on CNN, shows that Trump is still the party's front-runner with 24% support. That, though, is an 8 percentage point decrease from earlier in the month when a similar poll had him at 32%.

Trump drops 8 points; Fiorina increases 12 points. Rubio surges to 4th place. What the heck is the American voter thinking? Ted Cruz is a brilliant, Conservative and he's getting no traction. This nation is missing a great opportunity.

She is part of the Bush plan now make no mistake.

[RC one]

Part of the Bush team more like it.

What is America thinking?

They're thinking that they want someone who doesn't bow to DC and they can relate to. Rubio was played badly by Schummer and McCain on immigration. Rubio comes across as smart, understanding of normal people and he explains things real well.

I could see a Trump/Rubio team with Cruz staying in the US, mentored for a few years by Jeff Sessions in the US Senate, and working at cleaning up that cesspool.

This is BS by a phone call poll.

Fiorina, BTW, proclaimed that she quadrupled HP’s
revenue growth from 2 percent to 9 percent,
whereas it decreased from 7 percent to 3 percent.

She is a biz failure and a plant for the RINOs.

Like the circus shows that roll into and out of towns the Carly’s Free arena show will do what she did to HP -—tank.
Snarly Carly will be back to Yeb-like poll numbers in short order. She’s CNnN’s girl for now.

“Missed opportunity”

Another in a long line, starting and ending with the loss of Christianity as our guiding force.

I don’t know if Fiorina is part of a Bush Plan, but the Establishment media is all in for her.

But their to-be-defeated-later-by-dems Flavors-of-the-week never last (Carson, Cain, Bachmann, Romney, McCain...). Someone will jump the gun and release something about her incompetence as CEO.

Carly Fiorina had some harsh words for Hillary Clinton and The Clintons' family foundation. “Mrs. Clinton, please explain why we should accept that the millions and millions of dollars that have flowed into the Clinton Global Initiative from foreign governments do not represent a conflict of interest,” Fiorina said.

A report published by the Washington Post on Wednesday found that the Clinton Foundation had accepted millions of dollars from foreign governments for charitable causes while Secy Clinton was at the State Dept; such donations violate the State Department’s ethics agreement.

A later investigation found classified State Dept info on the Clinton Foundation server.

===========================================

Fiorina failed to mention that she appeared at a Clinton Foundation event in Denver last year and is on the advisory board of one organization and the chair of another that have active multi-million commitments to the Clinton foundation.

================================================

Fiorina appeared on a panel at the Clinton Foundation’s 2014 Denver event on economic opportunities, w/ ex-President Bill Clinton.

This is all media game play now.

CNN and the MSM establishment, RNC all want Trump out so we are seeing a unified campaign to manipulate the data in favor of anybody but Trump.

Fiorina is a useful candidate right now for pushing him out but then we will see another candidate, (somebody more palatable than either one of them) suddenly begin to surge.
Fiorina is a stop gap measure for right now but the powers that be see her as expendable too.

This new Republican “surge” candidate will be chosen such that they will still appear very mediocre when compared to Shrilliary. It's a classic set up.

Keep your eyes open for this process.

[Jane Long]

Wonder what FioRINO was paid, for her Clinton Foundation appearance. We know she didn’t just appear for the fun of Bill.

[Lurkinanloomin]

The non-Cheap Labor Express candidates:

Cruz, Trump, Santorum

Everyone else wants to accomodate the illegal aliens and their employers by changing the laws.

[Liz]

Hey, fun w/ Bill...must be worth something (/snix).

"This is BS by a phone call poll"

Oh, that's desperation…ALL polls are phone call polls.

Do I smell panic among the Trumpettes?

[dforest]

Rubio will never be chosen by Trump after coming out and excoriating Trump for not sticking up for Obama.

Rubio cannot be trusted. He lies a lot.

Cross linking another posting of the same article:

Poll: Fiorina rockets to No. 2 behind Trump in GOP field (Trump-24% Fiorina-15% Carson-14%)

[Lurkinanloomin]

Rubberio wasn’t played by anyone, he played his voters.
He lied to get elected, he lied about what was in his Gang’s bill, he lied about changing his mind about amnesty.
He is still for amnesty.
He’s not running for his Senate seat because he would have been defeated for his perfidy.

I do not want him anywhere near the GOP ticket.

[libstripper]

GREAT CATCH!!! Looks like Carly is as conflicted as Jebbie if she makes any real attack on the Witch’s ethics. Methinks that, along with the mess she made at HP, makes her unelectable.

Hillary and the DNC will be able to re-use Boxer's ads.
