Hmmm. This headline does not match the poll results. Nor does it match the headline of the actual article at the link which is: “Cruz rising in Iowa; Clinton back out to dominant lead”

According to this survey Trump’s support is down 2 points and Carson’s support is up 4. Ted Cruz is actually the big gainer having gone from 8% support to 14% and his favorables are up as well.

Why change the headline of the story? Why not just post what it actually says?

The headline is that Trump is back in the lead. Trump's support is down two 'from previous PPP IA poll,' but UP a bunch since earlier IA polls. I don't think what it "actually says" is the story here. For three weeks all we've heard is how Carson has surged ahead in IA. Well, we just had TWO polls from IA and Trump has "surged" back ahead. I think PPP was trying to obscure that fact by discussing the #3 guy as opposed to the race at the top, where the leader is way ahead of #3.

But suit yourself; go post your own.
