Going into tonight’s debate, Donald Trump holds a commanding double digit lead over Ted Cruz, and of course all the other GOP candidates. If he continues this pace, he will most certainly be the Republican nominee for president.

But that’s actually not the most important victory.

The most important win comes in November, when America actually votes for the next president of the United States.

And to ensure we don’t have another four years of damaging progressive leftist leadership, we need to defeat the Democrat candidate. The problem is, according to polls right now, at this moment, Trump ain’t that guy.

Real Clear Politics presents theoretical head-to-head match-ups on the candidates in the general election based on a number of polls and the averages do not bode well for a Trump candidacy.

Against Clinton, Trump loses by 4.7 points. Against Sanders, he loses by 9.7 points. Here are the results for the other front runners:

[RC one]

he has demonstrated an ability to change the polls in his favor.

Pre Cruz Rush said if they use that line

Then why can't they beat Trump?

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Why not just dispense this election nonsense and go with the result of a poll?

So Allen West supports Cruz. Who cares. I support Trump.

As we’ve just seen today, the political landscape can change with a heartbeat.

All bets are off on to where this sad occasion takes us in the Primary.

[bigbob]

Matters not. Everything is theoretical until there are nominees. Waste of time to speculate because everything can change.

[napscoordinator]

Today has changed EVERYTHING. We are at war now and I bet every Republican and Independent will vote for Trump now.

[JSDude1]

The if that’s true it’s very possible the outcome could also change and Trump could lose SC and the primary. I’ll stick with the polls.

[BigEdLB]

Exactly. Polls evolve and have somewhat already

[dforest]

No, he would beat both of them soundly.

[magna carta]

I support West as Secretary of State & Cruz 4 SCOTUS-TRUMP WILL MAKE A GREAT BOSS!

[Kit cat]

I BELIEVE YOU ARE RIGHT!!!!

[dforest]

If a person cannot win the majority of their own party, they have NO chance to win the general election.

[digger48]

The if that's true it's very possible the outcome could also change and Trump could lose SC and the primary

That's kinda what I meant.

[Catsrus]

Spot on!

[napscoordinator]

Thanks. This certainly isn’t a game anymore for real.

[nickcarraway]

How do you change in favor of somebody who’s going to put a liberal on the court?

[annieokie]

So if he wins the nomination and loses to the Dems, his mission is accomplished.

The most accurate poll is at the ballot box. The polls of the presidential matchups won't mean much until both parties have a nominee. Once each party trains its guns on the other party's nominee, we will then get a clearer picture.

Remember in 2008 how the polls said that McCain was the strongest opponent for Obama?
