A new poll shows Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker sitting atop a handful of 2016 GOP contenders in the early presidential state of Iowa, notching a 10-point lead over his nearest rival.
Mr. Walker, who has not yet officially declared his candidacy, was the choice of 23 percent of Republicans, followed by Sen. Marco Rubio of Florida at 13 percent and former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush at 12 percent, according to the survey released Tuesday by the Democratic firm Public Policy Polling......................"

But, but, I thought Jeb was breaking fundraising records..
Money can’t buy Jeb love.
I’ll vote for him....no problem.
fine with me!!! Im only voting for Walker,Cruz or Rubio....I’ll stay home if any of the others gets the nom....except Paul...then I’ll vote for the beast!
uh oh, now you’re in trouble — your excerpt failed to include you-know-who...
Good news.
Washington Times (I’ve learned) is super sensitive about having more than a tiny bit of their copy excerpted.
Walker has walked the walk. He's done an outstanding job as governor. I'd be happy with him as president.
Still, I prefer Ted. And there's a long way to go.
His lead is much more emphatic among voters saying conservatism is their top priority- with them he gets 29% to 14% for Cruz, 12% for Paul, and 10% for Huckabee.
Good.
Jebster needs to become irrelevant quickly, before he starts spending
Thanks for posting that. I was wondering where Cruz stood.

Understood. Just being a smartazz.
Another poll out this morning has Cruz way ahead. So right now the polls are meaningless. After the first two debates things will tighten up.
Damn the innuendos.. Full Cheese Ahead!!
Whatever the DC crowd tells us, US citizens get it. Almost nobody in DC has been on our side regarding US jobs for US citizens.
I think you've summed it rather well there.
Among those who say "Conservatism" is their driving force...
These candidates you listed pull just 56^ of the vote. That leaves 44% of those who prefer "Conservatism" hanging out there in limbo.
You add them to those who don't prefer Conservatism and the Democrat voting in open primary elections, and you leave Jeb Bush a massive number of voters to tap into.
44% looks a bit bigger than 20% or 14%.p> We're about to hand the GOPe Jeb Bush, just who they want.
This can’t be.
Opposing mass legal immigration is suicide according to the entire commentariat, left or right.
Gasp! They can’t be....wrong, can they?
I won't vote for the "moderate" if that's the candidate.
