Hillary does not look so formidable any more.

Those numbers look legit, despite the source. How Trump runs (and spends) can be a bit of a wild card, those less effective in Iowa and New Hampshire than in bigger states with open primaries.

As things now look, I expect Christie to bail after a weak showing in New Hampshire. Carson may be a problem, as he could finish second or third in Iowa, making him a story, and draining % away from better candidates. He also doesn’t need as much $$$ to stay active, just enough to get on ballots and in debates.

Cruz is keeping his powder dry, as is Walker. Neither wants to be any more of a target than absolutely necessary. If Jeb is near the lead, it also makes for a more compelling fund-raising pitch.

Herself, Madame Benghazi, the Cold & Joyless, is already feeling pressure from the left, as Bernie Sanders keeps dragging the dialogue further and further into the fever swamps.

Now, since fever swamps are the natural habitat of trolls and ogres, tactically this may not be a bad thing for Herself to prep for the primary campaign. But Herself has to, sooner rather than later, actually have to start ANSWERING the questions that are thrown out at press conferences, but continue to be squelched either by a quick exit, or deliberate and very obvious snubs to the one who chose to make such a dire breach of etiquette, offending every tenet of deference to royalty.

Bernie has no such aversion to conversing with the press people.

May well happen but first Christie has got to get into the
fray and become a candidate.

True. I can really see him picking up a lot of blue collar Dems and indies in open primaries, especially if Hillary has it sewn up early.

If true, the GOP might as well get ready for Hitlery.

Are these votes in general or Republican voters?

With the confusion at the organizational level for Carson, I have a hard time buying that he is running so well.

The worth of these 'polls' is amply demonstrated by an earlier today thread with this text; "Monmouth University Poll released Monday shows most Republican voters want renowned neurosurgeon Ben Carson as the 2016 GOP presidential nominee ..."

Polls at this point, before even the first debate, are MSM 'fill the time and inches', in other words USELESS!

So, you want a guy at the top who supports TPP, the Patriot Act, flips on immigration and has ethical issues WEDC in WS?

I like Walker, but just asking.

Really good points on Walker. I also am not buying the polls on Carson. I can’t get excited by someone who absolutely puts me to sleep when he speaks. Good person, just not Presidential.

Walker is my choice, but Bush is trainable...get rid of common core and I can handle him...he is a Catholic which means pro-life and anti same sex marriage...He has been a great governor in Florida, fiscally responsible and has a great rapport with the Hispanics.....

“he is a Catholic which means pro-life and anti same sex marriage”

does that also mean, if Bush is elected, he will also be making climate change one of his top agenda’s for his first year in office, as the Pope seems to be very concerned about climate change?
