It’s YOUR fault, you STOOOOOPID VOTERS, who do not appreciate my brilliance!
Does that sum-up the attitude of the GOPe in one easy sentence or WHAT??
Trumps support has held steady during the past month; 32 percent of Republican and GOP-leaning voters back him, compared with 33 percent in early September. The numbers suggest that mixed reviews of his performance in the second Republican debate in California did little to dampen the enthusiasm of his supporters. Carson, meanwhile, has ticked up from 20 percent to 22 percent.
The only other Republican in double digits among registered Republicans and Republican-leaning independents is Sen. Marco Rubio of Florida, at 10 percent. That represents a three-point increase in a month, within the polls six-point margin of sampling error.
Former Florida governor Jeb Bush runs fourth at 7 percent, followed by Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas at 6 percent and former Hewlett-Packard chief executive Carly Fiorina at 5 percent. No one else registers above 3 percent among Republican-leaning voters.
It is all over but the crying.
True, but that new CBS poll out this morning has me a little worried. Don’t know if the polls are rigged or if Trump is losing some support...
And not so 'previous' either. Rubio is owned by the Cheap Labor Express, which apparently doesn't care whether he ever votes on other important bills in the Senate or not.
There will be some fluctuation in polls. The important thing is the string of primaries themselves. Trump might lose Iowa to Carson, because Iowa loves to be quirky. But if Trump wins NH and SC and then Florida... I think it will all be over but the shouting.
From your words to God’s Ears!!!
It’s going to be a suspenseful season.
Margin of error in that poll was 7%.
Rigged like a Colonial Frigate.
[Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas at 6 percent]
CRUZ is at 10 and rising steadily.
Jeb Bush has to stand on his tippi toes so his poll numbers will appear to be higher. Dumbass
Even if one were to like Bush and/or Rubio as presidential candidates, he would have to admit that neither has the leadership gene.
In these troubled times we need someone we can follow into battle. If elected, any Republican president is going to face a serious battle. Considering the anger of voters they may not have the majorities in both houses. Even if they do, since so many Republican legislators are actually Democrats anyway, what difference does it make.
Trump and Cruz have the intestinal fortitude. Either of them could face the horrific fight.
Wow...7%!
I didn’t know that...
LOL!!!
Wow. Who exactly is Carson???
You place credence in a CBS poll?
