A new poll conducted by the Washington Free Beacon shows Ted Cruz expanding his lead in Wisconsin.
500 likely primary voters were queried on March 19 and 20; 36.2% favored Cruz while 31.4% of voters chose Trump. Jon Kasich garnered 20.8% of the vote.
The poll found that if Kasich dropped out, Cruz's support would soar to 47.8%; Trump would only increase to 36.2%
Cruz's 4.8 point lead was an increase from the one-point advantage he held in an Emerson poll released on Wednesday. Every poll taken that had ben quoted in the past by Real Clear politics showed Trump leading Cruz.
Trump proved to be hugely disliked by Wisconsinites; his net favorable rating clocked in at only +9.8, compared to +35.4 for Cruz and +41.2 for Kasich.
Almost 60% of respondents felt Trump "does not have the right temperament to be president." Over 60% agreed he "holds numerous liberal positions."
Two major anti-Trump groups will spend heavily to defeat Trump in Wisconsin, according to NBC News: Our Principles PAC and Club for Growth. Club for Growth announced it would spend $1 million for ads.
This poll shows bad stuff for Trump.
it's gots to be bad.
Who will Scott Walker endorse, next week?
I’m not sure who he will endorse, if anybody, since he was reported as saying he thinks someone not currently running will be the nominee.
Seriously, what the heck are you talking about?
Wisconsin has all of 42 delegates, and it's not a winner-take-all state. New York, which has 95 delegates, votes right after it, and will more than erase anything Cruz does in Wisconsin even if he does win there.
Here, try this. It's real.
"I did not have sexual relations with that woman, Monica Lewinsky." -- Bill Clinton
Donald Trump may be a rat, but I have no desire to copulate with him. -- Ted Cruz
Can you imagine when SNL gets ahold of THAT quote?
Maybe we should keep tainTED away from Disneyland for the time being, just to make sure...
I have not seen it.
Don’t forget that obama and Cruz’s father’s both abandoned them which might explain the narcissistic streaks.
I have wondered about the possibility that all along, Trump has wanted the attention and success of being the nominee...but that maybe he doesn’t really want to be President.
His life is great as it is...Does he actually desire the responsibility/chaos/huge life changes that come with the package?
True events have happened, Cruz’s lead would be larger.
Of course the lead in WI is why Stone and Pecker ran the smear.
Was your grandfather a Jap wandering around the jungle in 1948, by any chance?
And yet I have had FOX TV news on for an hour and not one word so far on Cruz and his fooling around. Do TBTB think by putting this out on a Friday, it will all be over by Monday? Fat chance.
Yes they have.
I don’t know how any woman especially one professing to be a Christian can support that lying pig.
“Can you tell me about #4? I hadn’t heard about her.”

And is #4 one of the reptilian space aliens with which Cruz has been having sexual congress?

Oh, boo hoo. Saint Ted has been engaged in dirty tricks the whole campaign.
Polled before his great Beaver Hunt was news...
Yup, the timing of the release regarding perverTED’s skirt chasing is definitely curious. It happened after uber-conservative Utah and before a three-day weekend.
It’s almost as if the Uniparty wanted to get this out of the way in the least damaging way for The Horny Ted.
You’re another Jap wandering around the jungle in 1948.
