I’m skeptical of any poll of republican primary voters that has Ted Cruz at an incredibly low 4%.

He’s too quiet, got some press, but played too coy on amnesty, wrong side of the trade fiasco, now same with recent vote setting up Obama to push through his Iran agreement with only 34 senate votes. Besides, Trump offers so much more clarity on the same topics Cruz spoke to. Cruz should play nice and line himself up with a VP slot on Trump ticket.

I’m not. The donors might like him but there’s a whole lot of heat without much to show for it AND he wants to increase visas, woohoo! More illegal immigrants and less jobs, what’s not to love?! /s

Cruz has been successfully demonized and ridiculed by the MSM as an extremist kook. He may be the brightest and most articulate of all the candidates, but his general appeal is limited. Green eggs and ham.

Me too. But even at 4 the Cruz position (8) on the Real Clear Poitics 5 most recent polls should solidify a bit. The candidates ahead of him, with the exception of Trump, are losing ground.

Assuming RCP adds this poll to their Last 5 I’ll post their update it in some future thread.

I’m not sure who does their polls, but I too am skeptical.

Their numbers have jumped around like a frog on a hot plate this year.

Republican, are if nothing else consistent.

I saw a national poll that showed Cruz 2nd behind Trump.

The republican primary voters that stuck us with McCain and Romney? The same folks who put Huckleberry and Saint Sweater Vest on top of the heap?

I never underestimate the stupidity of the republican voter.

Me too. Especially when he leads in hard money contributions.
