BOSTON (CBS) - It's been a crazy election so far, and the WBZ/UMass Amherst poll shows it could get crazier in these final days, with 28% of Democrats and a whopping 48% of Republicans saying they might still change their minds before next Tuesday's primary in New Hampshire.

Let's start with the GOP, where businessman Donald Trump is holding onto a substantial lead with 33%, a 19-point margin over Sen. Marco Rubio at 14% and Ohio Gov. John Kasich with ten percent. Right on their heels: Sen. Ted Cruz with nine percent, former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush at six percent and New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie with five percent. Dr. Ben Carson and businesswoman Carly Fiorina each have three percent. (The sample of 390 likely GOP primary voters has a 7.1% margin of error.)

For the Democrats, Sen. Bernie Sanders has a 24-point lead over former Sec. of State Hillary Clinton, 57-33%. (Sample size: 410 likely Democratic primary voters; 6.6% margin of error.)

I couldn't find a date for this poll but it's pretty clear that the Donald is still on top. What's interesting is that Cruz doesn't seem to be making much of his Iowa win.

It wasn’t that far from projections and in some polls he won.

I like Cruz but i didn’t think it meant much going forward,

I think it will be The Wild man and the communist.

If it is, how could I NOT vote for a fellow NYer :)

I think Iowa isn’t as important as it’s made out to be. Both Trump and Cruz should move on and go after Rubio. He is the only one that made hay in Iowa.

New Hampshire is NOT the kind of place to go for Cruze. As a matter of fact, many places aren’t.

It’s a newly released poll that has not made it to RealClearPolitics.com. It should be listed sometime tomorrow or later today.

Levin is the one who will blow a gasket. Rush will just back peddle and fence sit some more, before he gets his Trump slight in.

.....”interesting is that Cruz doesn’t seem to be making much of his Iowa win”.......

He wouldn’t regarding NH.....though it would be nice... his chances there are slim with such a liberal state. I think the idea is to let it play out there however it plays...he’s made his appearances with great turn out where he could capture some areas....otherwise he’s wise to move ahead.

Yup. Rubio is emblematic of the Establishment we’re investing to defeat.

Trump and/or Cruz 2016

The Carson maneuver seems to have backfired on Ted Cruz in the sense that while he won the Iowa caucus, he lost his halo as Saint Ted Washington Cartel Slayer. Carson pointed out on Greta tonight, that after Ted Cruz stood up at one caucus site and said that Ben Carson had dropped out, Candy Carson, who wasn’t going to speak, “was allowed” to speak and deny Ted Cruz’s statement. Ben Carson said that he won that particular caucus.

So who knows how many votes shifted from Carson to Cruz at the caucuses where the lie was allowed to go unchallenged. As Karl Rove pointed out: a little more than 4 votes in each caucus shifting from Carson to Cruz would have given Cruz the victory over Trump.

I think a Trump versus Sanders election would be epic. We could just put their tax plans next to one another and let Americans see exactly how much their vote for the commie is going to cost them.

what’s this 10/20 plan for over 75k?

Are me and my wife going to get screwed for not being able to have kids?

as long as that’s not the case, I think Trump’s looks great.

BUT he will have do to Gotti on the budget.

His tax policy web page states that married filers earning $50,001-$100,000 will pay 10% and married filers earning $100,001-$300,000 will pay 20%.It also says that single filers making less than $25,000 will pay 0%. The image suggests that people earning less than $18,500 will earn 0% so we clearly need a better graphic but I had trouble even finding this one.

ok. We make below 100k. both of us lol.

unfortunately.

he’s good with me then.

i’d rather have someone work and pay 0 percent up to 30k than be on welfare and TAKE money and SNAP.

agreed. His tax plan incentivizes work and does far more to help poor people than any government handout ever could. I see this tax plan as being pivitol to his plan to 'make America great again". It's half the battle.
