Polling begun and completed after the March 10 debate shows radical changes in Ohio and Illinois ahead of their March 15 primaries. In both primaries, Ted Cruz is surging, on the strength of a strong debate performance.
In Ohio, a winner take all primary with 66 delegates on the line, the latest poll by CBS, conducted from March 9-11, shows Trump and Kasich tied at 33% each with Ted Cruz surging to 27% up from his pre-debate showing of 19%.
Easy to dismiss as an outlier? Not if you also look at CBS' Illinois poll that has Trump leading by 38-34 over Cruz after he had held a 34-25 lead earlier in the week....

But it’s interesting to note that Cruz is behind in all these polls - leading nothing. Plus an NC poll conducted AFTER the debate and just released today finds Cruz behind in double digits.
Morris has become a Cruz-Romney propagandist. You cannot compare two polls from different sources. Wyoming’s county conventions are as a result of the secret precinct caucuses held between Feb 22 and Mar 1. Delegates came from there already pledged, and we have no way of knowing who got what. Morris, always at the ready to sell books, leaves out critical information purveying false logic to sell the point he wants to make. Selling false hope in 2012, he left us al disappointed, and blind to Romney’s inept campaigning in the final weeks. Here on FR we do a daily caucus. You can look at how people voted before and after the Chicago incident. In terms of net people changing, there is a wash. But in terms of percentage of people changing, Trump has a huge advantage over Cruz. If you could apply those percentages to the entire voting populous. We may be in for an interesting surprise on Tursday. If we at FR are an abberation, well, so be it. But Morris’ arguments are flawed because he make assumptions about polling, and how to apply the data which is flat out wrong
The booger eater ...
This guy needs to go find some new toes and get lost, permanently.
Best Trump news I’ve heard today. Dick Morris predicting a Cruz surge is a guaranteed big win for Trump.
Toe-sucker speaks!
Idon’t trust Dick either , but whether or not he has a foot fetish has nothing to do with it .
come on.. he can’t even get a toe up to his mouth ;)
or where we talking about someone elses toes?
At least he doesn’t wield that dry-erase white board like The Turd Blossom does.
Uh oh. Morris is never right!
No one wants to here your opinion except Karl Rove. Check under the cover, he is the one sucking on your toes.
Whatever momentum Ted might have might have been riding out of the debate was probably blunted by his remarks about the organized violent leftist thugs in Chicago. That was the most stupid, tone deaf, political move that I have ever seen. It made him look like the opportunist that he is.
the mass exodus are people who ocne backed little rubio but now are abandoning him as they realize he hasn’t a chance at the nomination
Hey Dick!
Saving for Tuesday.
Does anyone actually still pay for Morris’ prognostications? I have to wonder if his opinion is only sought out because he’s so wrong, you can predict results by going the opposite of what he says.
I think his first name says it all...
Say goodnight dick!
Ted Cruz Only!
Actually, Morris is a liar. Admitted to Sean Hannity that he cooked numbers in Romney’s favor. It’s why you’ll never see him on this show anymore.
