Pro-Jeb Bush Super PAC Right to Rise has conducted an internal poll in SC that finds Donald Trump and Ted Cruz in an extremely tight race.
The results list Trump at 26 percent, and Cruz at 24 percent, with Bush and Marco Rubio coming in a distant third and fourth with 12 and 11 percent respectively, according to a report by Politico.
Right to Rise polling is now being conducted by South Carolina veteran political strategist Richard Quinn.
In the Politico report Quinn states: "This is clearly a tight, volatile race that could produce most any result over the next six days."
What's more is that Right to Rise has shown precision accuracy in their internal polls of late. On February 8th, just hours before the New Hampshire Primary, Right to Rise released a poll showing Bush rising to 12 percent and notching third place while Rubio fell to fifth.
The results were eerily similar as Bush just narrowly missed third place and 12 percent, and Rubio did indeed fall to fifth.
The most recent SC poll was conducted between Thursday and Saturday, which is interesting because it does not take the candidates' debate performances into account. Bearing that in mind, this primary race may be even more volatile than expected.
nah, not really, you were just waiting for a response
We’ll all still be here together, come what may.

I hope you are right.
I was a lurker through the last two cycles but I don’t remember it being this bad. Not being an active participant may have made my perception different.
I find it hard to believe that a Bush PAC would advertise how poorly Bush is doing in that poll it would discourage Bush’s few voters. I call BS.
Keep posting it becomes tedious. CNN out tonight with Trump ahead in the upper teens. Why do you and Rush and Psycho Kristol think this is the only poll on the planet that counts?
I’m “the only one”, huh?
Do you come here and only read my posting history? Sounds like it.
I guess I should be flattered, but really, you ought to get out more.
I KNOW!
“I don’t remember it being this bad...”
It wasn’t. Not in my twelve years of reading on this site. It’s become a real test of personal strength for me to participate at all, during this primary.
Have you read his Facebook page lately? From the looks of it Mark works for the Cruz campaign too:
[The Donald, liar]
[So, who was lying, Marco? He just won't come clean on immigration.]
[Make America what again? ]
[Open-borders money flows to Rubio]
[Jeff Sessions: Rubio's wrong about his latest rewrite of the Gang Of Eight and Cruz's role in killing it. (I guess Rubio's lying since, as he says, that's the opposite of telling the truth).]
These are just a few of loudmouth's posts. There are many more of a similar nature. Notice the commonality of them. He comes to Ted's defense every time no matter who attacks him. He should go back to writing and hocking his books.
Are we still going to see this poll being touted in April?
BS look at the RCP summary of all polls, and look at the Trump and Cruz trending graph.
Cruz going down down to Rubio’s numbers while Trump’s lead grows and Grows.
And yet in he's tied with Yeb and behind Rubio in all the other polls.
You keep posting these irrelevant numbers again and again in hopes they become real.
For those that don’t know these numbers are from the Jeb camp and were dropped on Sunday in an effort to show Trump on the decline and Jeb on the rise in SC.
It’s pure propaganda from a dying campaign, but now Cruz supporters have taken this sad lie and are running with it as proof that their guy is neck and neck with Trump in SC.
I don’t want another Kagan on the Supreme Court. The thought occurred to me that if want to deprive people of their liberty and their lives you first go after the most vulnerable as a test and as a precedent. That means the unborn and the terminal as both are helpless.
And if interests you at all I’m getting hopping mad. This country just lost its greatest living friend in Antonin Scalia. There’s no way that liberal subsidizing Trump will ever appoint anyone even close to his caliber. I’m sick of pretenders.
The only one between you and I, which was the context of the rest of the back and forth. but you knew that, didn’t you?
There’s no end to Trump’s ego.
I listened to Hugh Hewitt tonight, he had about an hour or half an hour set aside for callers from SC. It wasn’t scientific but I think most of the callers were for Cruz.

That's a great line, I will have to remember that.
I’ve noticed that Limbaugh is trying to tip the scales towards Cruz but at the same time he is afraid of losing his audience. This is the first time I can see visibly that Limbaugh values the money he is making and does not want to lose it.
