Coming hot off his win in New Hampshire -and with a significant amount of his time devoted to South Carolina- it’s little surprise that Trump is 16-17 points ahead. It appears that the only demographics that Trump isn’t currently winning are 18-29 year-old voters and self-described “very liberal†voters, who prefer Rubio and Kasich, respectively. Evangelists prefer Trump to Cruz by a margin of 10 points – a significant change from Iowa, where Cruz led with evangelical voters by four points.
When respondents were asked of their second choice for the nomination, Rubio and Cruz command the first and second spots (within 2 points), with others trailing closely.
The poll was conducted for the Augusta Chronicle, Morris News Service, and Fox 5 Atlanta.

Do you have anything else?
The only question following Trump’s SC victory will be who will Jebbie throw his support to—Rubio or Cruz?
No. Trump’s net favorability among Republicans in January was +27, sixth place! behind several people who have already dropped out. His support is very committed but it’s less than half the party and a large percentage cannot see voting for him.
But the Cruzers told me all the real conservatives in SC would never support Trump!
Phuck it, bugler sound the charge!
Then you're not in the dataset other than populating a non-response group.
This poll is about as reliable as anyone is going to get in a small state requiring a rapid turnaround.
"779 : +/-3.5% (95% confidence)""Likely Republican primary voters were selected at random from a list of registered voters. Only voters determined likely to attend the 2016 South Carolina Republican primary were included in the sample.
That’s beautiful! LOL!
And he will vote demorat
(Because in SC the biggest vote getter, gets 29 delegates.
THEN 3 delegates for the winner of each of the 7 polling districts.)
That would be awesome! thanks for the info
He has committed career suicide with his support for Zuckerberg’s personal senator as Trump once noted .
Rush needs to retire .
That's too big of an "if" for me.
It appears however that Trump, if he is conservative at all, has achieved this mission objective successfully since everyone is now calling him a liberal!
That's too big of an "if" for me.
Yeah, but what choice did you ever really have? McCain was well-known as an enemy by the time he ran, and Romney was never a secret as being a GOPe dope. At least with Trump there remains a possibility of morphing into a Reagan.
It's not like he would have time to do much other than get the Amnesty/Wall/Alien situation sorted out. If he failed at that then nothing else would matter. The republic will be over once they naturalize enough more aliens to get their 270 electoral vote headstart. Game over! ( even though the elitist conservative talking heads will still pretend there is an election every four years it will be as fake as Venezuela, Nicaragua and Cuba ).
Sometimes I like to challenge and embarrass the Cruz and doctrinaire (C) elitists to explain the difference between a Constitutionalist ( as they insist Cruz is ) and a non-Constitutionalist ( as they say Trump is ) once they get sworn in. I know the President's powers as well as the next person, and I know the history of most in that office. Now I need to get convinced in just what matters a "Constitutionalist" makes a difference. The truth is, that office is no longer a bastion of Constitutionalism by any measure. Nothing can be solved from there by a "Constitutionalist" who in theory would voluntarily place handcuffs on himself to abide by the Constitution while he gets rolled by the institutional inertia in the District of Criminals.
We had three consecutive "Constitutionalists" in that office, including the principal author of that document, the three Democratic-Republicans, Jefferson, Madison, and Monroe and they dutifully did their best to veto everything non-enumerated from Congress while the FedGov was a tiny fraction of its size and still they failed. At this late point in time Madison himself would cry uncle or need to adopt the strategic ways of a Trump using the bully pulpit, deal making and sheer force of will, all things that were alien and obscene to the Founders.
Recently we get Cruz and Levin jabbering about ethanol and eminent domain, as if specific boutique issues are the primary concern of the republic. Not a single thought occurred to them that these things, and others like Abortion and gay marriage, are not line items he gets to pick and choose from. All he has is executive orders which could be undone in two seconds by the next liberal President and all his successors that will follow thanks to the inevitable crossing of 270 electoral votes once Texas or any other "red" state is turned over to them.
You wonder why so many are gravitating to the "non-Constitutionalist" Trump? They realize the jig is up. This is it ... for real ... now or never.
Funny you should mention her as she was on fox or fox business last night.I saw the last 30 seconds so I missed the details.
I look forward to your posts after south Carolina.
He actually called for support for Pat Buchanan in NH only in 1992; Pat won NH in 1996.
I would paste a very large poster of that on the side of my truck in a heart beat.
Would be more hard-hitting with the correct spelling.
But I didn’t want anyone on FR clutching their pearls :-)
I just love that woman
