Too funny. In my ongoing campaign biography of Trump that I'm writing, I used the stages of grief to describe the drive-by media. Course, this guy must not have seen this poll: http://bit.ly/1LCKp0N

It's not IA, but it's significant.

A bit premature.

If it weren’t for the evangelicals who don’t know Carson belongs to a cult and the corn crack sniffers, Carson wouldn’t even be registering in Iowa.

I expect Carson to win the Iowa caucus. He’s their kind of guy. Openly Christian, mild mannered and mostly moderate.

But the Iowa caucus means very little. Ronald Reagan in 1980 didn’t bother to campaign in Iowa because he knew they liked squishy moderates like Daddy Bush.

At least half the time the winner fizzles out afterwards.

“The IBD/TIPP poll was the first national poll to show Carson taking the lead from Trump. Since then, the New York Times/CBS News and Reuters polls have come up with similar
results.”

So, now there are three national polls showing Carson is ahead. This article is a good one showing Trump’s reactions as he is faced with these results, including the Iowa poll showing Carson ahead.

We will see how he handles himself from this point forward and including tonight, whether poll numbers will be brought up tonight.

Here is my latest average of the four latest major GOP National Polls. Despite what the MSM tries to emphasize with a single poll, this average tells the tale.

...and here's the trend line of the averages of each weeks major polls (and they differ from week to week in terms of who takes them) since the first of septmeber.

Speaks for itself:

I just hope Trump will focus on what HE plans to do while pointing out the sneakiness of the House GOP’s members who voted to pass another Obama budget and break more promises they made to their supporters.

I’d love for him to say Boehner gave us all the finger on his way out. If he hurls insults to Carson or Cruz, it will only hurt him, IMO.

I believe what has happened is Bush’s supporters dropped him, and went to Carson.

At least they’re saying that.

It allows them to feel like they’re impacting the system. Trump needs to stay on his game, but Carson’s supporters are newer than Trumps (at least many of them) and more subject to changing their minds.

Granted if they stay his supporters long-term his support solidifies, but right now it seems Carson got a bunch of people who had been Bush supporters.

We shall see. :D

By ‘grieving,’ do you mean, ‘celebrating his domination of the race’?

@realDonaldTrump
I’m sure the media will not report the highly respected new national poll that just came out via The Economist. 32%! https://today.yougov.com/news/2015/10/28/trump-leads-nationally-ahead-gop-third-debate/

Maybe some of those evangelicals are having a look at his religion. Or maybe some of the government income recipients are suspecting that he might not be the big spender they were hoping for.

Iowa is only important for people who need happy and confident donors to stay in the race.

Wide circulation, hardcopy, conservative publication for investors since 1984. Good work!

What an Ahole that guy is. You are supposed to ask people for their vote. Trump should have been doing it all along. His final sentence at every rally should be something on the order of “I’m asking for your vote to help me make America great again”.

It’d be nice if you came back and participated on the thread. Or maybe not.
