Appeal of the family man? Donald Trump has ‘huge lead’ among Republican women voters, polls say
Washington Times ^ | 7/28/2015 | Jennifer Harper

Posted on 07/28/2015 1:50:39 PM PDT by GoneSalt

“Riding a wave of non-stop publicity, a new poll shows mogul Donald Trump solidly in first place among 256 likely Republican primary and caucus voters nationwide,” says pollster John Zogby, who reveals that the billionaire is now in the lead with support from 20 percent of likely primary voters overall. The percentage is even higher among women voters.

Jeb Bush is in second place with 16 percent, followed by Gov. Scott Walker, Sen. Rand Paul, Ben Carson, Sen. Marco Rubio, Mike Huckabee, Sen. Ted Cruz, and Govs. Chris Christie, John Kasich and Bobby Jindal.

Mr. Bush bests Mr. Trump among all Republicans and among male voters. Mr. Trump, however, triumphs among conservatives, independents and female voters. He has a “huge lead” among women, Mr. Zogby said - 26 percent to Mr. Bush’s 10 percent, and 7 percent for Mr. Walker.

This is not the first survey which reveals Mr. Trump has appeal for women voters - support deemed crucial by analysts who have also warned that the candidate’s style might not appeal to the ladies. The findings suggest otherwise. A new Washington Post-ABC News poll also found that he leads among the GOP female demographic, garnering 23 percent of the vote, with Mr. Walker in second with 16 percent - and Mr. Bush a distant third with 8 percent.

“I have yet to meet a SINGLE Republican who supports Jeb Bush.”

That’s why I say he’s now a political zombie. The ‘support’ that he gets comes from respondents that say something like:

“Who did you say?...Never heard of any of them...but I liked both Bush presidents (compared to Clinton/Obama, at least), so he must be a good guy - and therefore I support him.”

It’s not just me, the Party has to have figured this out too.

Still at it? You’ll understand Trump better after he takes office.

“Anyone who needs to brag and overcompensate that much must have very deep insecurities.”

Sorry, but Rush is a HERO on this site. Baseless ATTACKS on him will only get you kicked off.

“Michael Phelps doesn’t go around challenging everyone to a swimming race and saying how much better he is than anyone.”

Considering Mr. Phelps lifestyle, that pretty much answers the question as to whether you’re on our side.

You learned nothing Sam because obviously you have never been to a Nascar event.

Cruz has certainly been emboldened by the Trump Effect. Who’s not paying attention?

Please keep it down. I'm listening to "Return of the Grievous Angel" by Gram Parsons.

I haven't heard that one in a while. I've got a whole Gram Parsons/Flying Burrito Brothers playlist queued up.

"Cruz has certainly been emboldened by the Trump Effect. Who’s not paying attention?"

Perhaps you read my post too quickly to understand it. In that case, I refer you back to it to read it again.

Cruz was "bold" from the get-go, beginning with college debate. You should inform yourself about his accomplishments as Texas Solicitor General. And then of course, there's the undeniable truth that his time in the Senate has been characterized by singular "boldness."

All of this while Trump was going through bankruptcies, doing reality TV, and yelling about kicking someone's a## on Twitter.

Yeah. What a statesman.

I'll stick with Cruz.

“I don’t know that I would call Trump the ideal family man, but apparently paying your Alimony on time and having a good relationship with the kids qualifies now days.”

Standards are pitifully low, aren’t they?

“Maybe some people envy him, but why would you? I doubt it’s very fun being him. He can’t even enjoy himself. Look at how much he overcompensates. That’s sone I be tortured by insecurities. He’s older than Hillary and not even comfortable in his own skin.”

You’re feeling sorry for a multi-billionaire?

No matter how i think of Trump politically, he is one man who immensely enjoys himself, no matter what he is doing. He even makes a presidential campaign seem like a fun outing with friends, and enjoys taking in the RINOs and MSM.

“Real billionaires don’t go around bragging how much money they “

Now you are contending he really has no money?

Come on nick, you are stretching here.
