Trump Holds Massive 31 Point Lead Over Rubio in Massachusetts – 43-12%
Overtime Politics ^ | 2/12/16 | Fred

Donald Trump has a commanding lead in Massachusetts, pulling in more support than the next 4 candidates combined. He currently leads Marco Rubio by 31 points – 43-12% – about 18 days away from the election.

If you’re Donald Trump, it’s hard to get better news out of The Bay State, considering there are 39 proportionally allocated delegates up for grabs. The 5% threshold looks like it will be achievable by everyone except perhaps Ben Carson (Carly Fiorina and Chris Christie suspended their campaigns during the poll), meaning most candidates still standing for Super Tuesday will walk away with at least a couple delegates.

But but I thought Rubio was the most “electable”.

Now that’s some good Friday news!

No wonder the Cruzinistas seems a little shakier than usual today.

If you think Rubio or Cruz will win Mass in the General Election, please pass down what you are smoking.

Former US Senator Scott Baker endorsed Trump and campaigned for him in NH.

Gov. Charlie Baker endorsed Christie.

Yes, I predict liquor sales will be spiking this weekend!

Sounds about right for a state that gave us Ted Kennedy and Fauxahontas.

Personally, I don’t think MA is in-play.
The Sanders-Toon fight will limit the RATS in “Operation Kaos.”

This is the news that Cruz supporters ignore. What they forget is that half the primaries are in liberal states. Cruz must win there too.

Even liberals have brains. They can see they need jobs, they can see illegals are taking jobs and bringing crime. MA might be in play.

That headline made me laugh.

43-12? It’s like the Globetrotters against the Washington Generals at this point.

Cruz must win in Mass?

I don't think so.

And I don't think Trump will win there either.

I confess to being a Cruzer (the -nista is better used on the Sandernistas). From the beginning I said that Donald Trump would win BIG in the northeast, and would likely beat HRC (or oher Dem) in the general in those states.

We Cruzers are sticking to our knitting and working our ground game. We can do okay on Super Tuesday without Massachusetts.
