Nah, Im just kidding. This is an outlier. Isnt it? Carly Fiorina ahead of Chris Christie and Ted Cruz in New Hampshire? Cmon, I
can totally believe that, actually, given the states fondness for outsiders and mavericks. In fact, for a supposed outlier, the only number in this poll thats strikingly out of sync with other recent polls of New Hampshire is Jebs. Hes fully 10 points higher than he was in Bloombergs poll of the state last month. Maybe not coincidentally, the other noticeable gainer is Donald Trump, who was at five points two months ago in a WMUR poll, then at eight points in Bloombergs poll in May, and now at 12 points, good for fourth place right behind Scott Walker and Rand Paul.
Awesome and truthful post. I wish we had a “like” button. lol.
You do not know that and neither do I. It is pure conjecture.
First the scenario you posit, about everyone except 2 dropping out will NEVER happen. Enough of hypothetical scenario’s. My interest is mainly in reality.
Of course I would vote for Cruz too....I voted for Romney and McCain after all. Gosh I even voted for Dole back in the day. Yep I have some sad choices in my time. Bush was ok (my first vote in 1988) and Bush jr was ok especially first time and second time I voted for him because of patriotism and all that with the war going on and no way would I sit out and let Kerry get in there.
It’s painful seeing some of the candidates who are vying for the nomination.
As painful as that is, it is good to see RNC finally used some brains and limit the first debate to 10 candidates.
Only as a tool of the left. NH has no meaning, the real US will hopefully not go fot the soros tool. Jeb
Good thought. Agree
So is the presidental election.
Yep, I agree. Doesn’t give much to look forward to, does it?
Of course it’s conjecture, as was the initial comment about 79% against that you commented on and refuted. Naturally there is some % (agree that it’s lower than 79%) that would never vote for JB, but from the combined poll results of all the coservatives running, I’d think that number is somewhere between 60 an 75%.
But as you say, that’s just conjecture - my only point was that Fido’s initial conjecture was not far off the mark.
I will be working hard against a Jeb Bush nomination. Actually he is a better candidate than GWB, but the Bushes in general are big government family. I am done with the Bushes. And....we have much better candidates running in 2016 than Jeb Bush.
You are right, once upon a time the USA was a place that people came to bee free.
George W. Bush got crushed in NH 2000, there’s no way Jebbie will do better.
We don’t vote for 270 days.
Relax.
Exactly. The poll was sauced to try to rescue Jeb’s fundraising which is tanking.
The problem is more than conservatives running against each other, it is pretend conservatives who are RINO operatives deliberately entering the race to make sure Jeb wins......
It’s still too many, but what can you do?
It’s early but New Hampshire does represent the best chance for Bush in the early primaries and could well be the high-point of his campaign. As it was with Hillary in 2008.
