I'm not a big fan of Monmouth, but this poll is extremely interesting. If Trump is leading or close in Iowa, Hillary has very big problems. Monmouth had Trump down 4 in Nevada earlier this week while another poll had him up 2 in Nevada. Iowa and Nevada are two of the supposed "Battleground" states that lean Democrat. If you look further at the RCP and HuffPost Head to Head match-ups you will also see the beginning of a noticeable uptick in support for Trump and a downtick for Clinton. Her overall lead is 3.8 in HuffPost from a high of 7 a few weeks previously.

watch for the dems to ramp up and also create new stupidities as a slow panic develops, this will further tank their efforts

Good news since the campaign is not yet even formally underway.

Considering that Lyin Ted beat Donald in the Hawkeye primary, this result is interesting and may portend some upsets to conventional wisdom.

Obama beat Romney there by 6% in 2012.

Iowa has voted democrat starting in 1988, and only once, in 2004, did Bush2 barely squeak out a win. Iowa voted overwhelmingly for 0bama both times.

Trump’s biggest problem continues to be evangelicals who bought Ted Cruz’s lies.

Once the first debate has concluded, Trump is going to gain a sizeable lead.

Hitlery is also quite unpopular in Iowa; Soetoro smashed her by 10 points in the 2008 RAT primary, during which he had fairly low name recognition.

Just one poll, and polls are like the sand in the Sahara. They shift with ever little bit of wind.........................But, having said that, “Trend is your friend”.......................

True. And she had to steal this year’s election from Bernie as well.

Monmouth didn’t even poll Iowa ahead of the general election in 2012, so its track record there is unknown.

The Des Moines Register would be a better barometer of sentiment.

I knew us white catholics were good for something :)

Hispanic Catholics make it look like we’re 50/50 or worse.

But you can’t really be Catholic (or Christian or Jewish for that matter) and vote for hillary

Monmouth had Clinton with a 4 point lead in New Jersey last month

Looks like Trump is not too far behind her in critical and even blue states, this is not good news for Hillary

Funny story, I was working on the phone system for friend’s business, and a call came through the older analog land line Trunk and I answered it because it is generally out going calls anyways and it is unpublished, it was a polling company, I voted for Hillary, why, just to mess with them. I want her to think she is winning this.

I mentioned what I did to the secretaries there, three women, ages 25 to 40. They just laughed, one said, could you imagine if she actually does win? The Hillary hate came out. And this is Hillary’s demographic, New Jersey women, even they can’t stand her.

I have a feeling, Trump has this in the bag, it will be a blow out, heck it might even be a shut out and Hillary doesn’t even win a single state. But we don’t need to be over confidence, we need to think this is a horse race like the media is pretending this is. And win this thing

Huge. Minion, McLame, and even W all lost IA.

Any details of the poll? How big is the +D margin?
