Very small sample. Shaky methodology. Large margin. I really would like to see a few more polls.

Maybe so, but the results mirror every other poll we've seen since the debate.

We have seen the NBC poll, this one, and a tracking poll by a group called ‘Morning Consult’ that I have never heard of.

This one I call shaky because of the small sample, large margin, and methodology. The NBC one is better. The Morning Consult one I don’t know about.

All show Trump either steady or gaining. That looks like the trend, and more polls will probably support that. But we only know the Trump and Bush numbers from this poll, so I can’t tell beyond that.

The NBC poll showed Cruz with a 7 point jump, the Morning Consult poll showed Cruz with a 4 point drop.

We don’t know what this poll showed for Cruz.

So again, I really would like to see a few more polls.
