Well if it's the yesterday's released Yougov/cbs poll on caucus night Cruz loses by 9 pts.
Oh yeah new national poll about to come out. This is what it looks like. ;-)
I can’t believe Amnesty Rubio is anywhere near the lead.
And Walker was the favorite a few months ago. Things can change, especially if Cruz takes Iowa. It will be impossible for the media to ignore him and he will be perceived as a potential winner. Cruz has also spent a lot of time and effort in the southern states that follow shortly after SC.
Trump has deep, broad-based support but high negatives, limiting growth. Cruz has high favorables, low negatives (yes, it's true) and is viewed by most as presidential. He has greater upside potential in the primary.
