We don’t need a candidate—we need a revolution. Go Trump!

"Ryan just won the GOP nomination for Trump."

You are very prescient, brilliant, or a Jeff Kuhner listerner :-).

Seriously, they said that on his show today, you are not alone in that thought...

National polls are irrelevant at this point in the race, with 13 candidates.

RCP average

IA Cruz +1
NH Trump +17
SC Trump +12
FL Trump +14

And when you add together voters 1st and 2nd choices, Cruz leads Trump 40-39 nationally. Trump s support has been flat for 5 months. Cruz support has shot up over the last month as he has taken Carson s supporters. As more candidates drop out, Cruz will take the lead.

1ST & 2ND CHOICE COMBINED:

Note the trends of Carson and Cruz especially, reading from right to left:

Can anybody get that thought to Trump’s campaign? He should rail on this omnibus deal for the next week and then pick up again after Christmas. Reinforces every reason why we hate the GOPe and want Trump.

I knew Ryan would screw us, but truth to tell, I didn’t think he had the balls to finance the importation of 250,000 terrorists. I guess I was wrong.

I have a hard time believing Carson is anywhere above 1%.

You mean Prince Valium?

Okay, I'll take you at your word.

So why did you bother posting a chart with the combined polling figures for 1st and 2nd place?

Let's work on that opening statement.

National polling figures for 2nd place are always irrelevant.

Yep. It appears the DC Elites are raiding the cookie jar before
Trump is President and starts “firing” a lot of hacks.

GonzoII, thanks for posting that link.

It has some encouraging information in there.

On page five it reveals 90% of Republicans and 81% of Independents think the nation is going in the wrong direction. It incredibly also reveals that 43% of Democrats think think the nation is going in the wrong direction.

On page six it reveals that 43% (43+25) of Independents strongly do not think Obama is doing a good job.

On that page it also reveals that 73% (73+14) of Republicans do not think Obama is doing a good job.

On that page it also reveals that 10% (10+23) of Democrats do not think Obama is doing a good job.

That PDF is worth the view.

Rush just called on Trump to study up on this bill and rail against it Challenges him to know as much about the bill as he does. This is bigger a bigger deal than any other issue.

Interesting.

btw, today on FOX they were trying to promote slick Marco "Gang of 8" Rubio as an anti-establishment candidate. Stupid.
