Mirrors what the CNN poll showed but NN headlined as Trump falling and Fiorina surging.....
If the media hate Trump that much it makes me wonder....
WINNING!!!
Gez what happened to Carly, the newest love object of the DC/NYC DC Beltway mediots in a frantic search for anyone to stop Trump.
Oh, this poll was with identified Republican voters not rats pretending to be Republicans.
Lol, media can only do so much to hold someone up. Pretty soon, they, the candidate, has to actually utter a few intelligent phrases, to keep up their end.
“Holy crap, Fiorina’s surge lasted just 5 days.”
Thanks. The reality is it never got past 6% in spite of the
the lies pushed by the GOPE, their comrades in the media and the DC Beltway pundits.
He won’t get far..The ones flaming out are the ones that are over and over again looking for amnesty in one wording or another. They are not listening; we Americans want illegals deported and a wall built. We have been screaming for this for a couple decades now and the politicians have ignored us. I don’t give a rats behind about “anchor” babies or their “poor” families. They are illegal and sucking up my countries wealth.
I never thought they were fabricated. I did think they were inaccurate. Not any more. Look at the 2008 and 2012 results. A couple of outliers, but most of them are pretty darned accurate. If anything, they underestimated Obama’s support in 08.
No they are all touting the CNN poll which shows Donald has slipped a litte. Since all the others show him up the CNN poll is likely highly manipulated.
Nobody under 50 sampled int he CNN poll, IIRC. It was very skewed. 60% reached by landline. I don’t know anyone under 40 who has a landline.
Congrads on the italics :) yes a sample of 4,000 + makes it a reliable poll (if the sample was random).
I think I read that most of the sample were not likely voters. The whole poll is skewed and Trump is still in the lead. :-)
Good Commentary on Trump/Carson’s suprise success and Bush’s bumbling at:

KEEP FLYING HIGH, DONALD! DON'T LET US DOWN!
“Carson, Bush and Fiorina are all bunched together in the race for second place.”
False. Gnarly is a distant fourth.
Interesting theory. I’ll buy it. If Wee Lil’ Linsey comes out of the closet it is certifiable.
Bandwagon effect.
Everybody loves supporting a winner, hates supporting a loser. Polls become self-fulfilling prophesies.
There are push polls that try to shape opinions, but most polls are done objectively. If a poll is an outlier, there are real world consequences, i.e., the polling company loses credibility and money.
Samples are not done randomly in polling. They are carefully constructed to capture the demographics of the country, state, region, etc.
