Ted Cruz has always been the front runner. He’s ten steps ahead of everyone, including the polls....


Which polls are you talking about? We may have missed something. TIA.

We want a true outsider.

Cruz is always a second best choice because he did raise money from the donor class, he does have the same lobbyist issues as jbush.

Cruz is tolerable only because every other senator in establishment leadership dislikes him.

Hi Jane, I take it you’re for Donald, this go-round.

What I meant was,imo, the polls are currently uninformed. I’ll give you an example. The recent CNN poll asked about the “favorability” of five candidates— Trump, Bush, Carly, Walker, Kasich (evidently CNN’s front runners)

Now, the poll questions 300 reg Pubs, and 200 Indies leaning Rep. As to favorability, CNN offered a choice of “never heard of”. As for Walker, Kasich and Carly, 40%+/-, said they never heard of them! Basically then, 40% of the respondents have no knowledge of the current political landscape.

That’s why I said that, imo, Ted is ahead of the polls— I’ll wait until January 2016, when everyone’s more informed. If he’s behind at that time, then I’m wrong-— won’t be the first time.
