“The NBC/WSJ poll was conducted Feb. 14-16 of 800 registered voters (which has a margin of error of plus-minus 3.5 percentage points) and 400 GOP primary voters (which has a margin of error of plus-minus 4.9 percentage points).”

This poll appears to be pure BS. See for yourselves.

This public relations firm does an awful lot of work for our GOPe friends to INFLUENCE ELECTIONS, including FoxNews. See link below... Below is an interview with founders of the firm:

Now in its 20th year, the Republican polling firm offers only a limited sample of its victories on its walls, but its influence is nonetheless clear.

"Those push-button polls can do a good job of telling you who's ahead and who's behind," Newhouse said during an interview at the firm's office. "But what

we pride ourselves on is when a campaign is trying to figure out how to get from point A to point B - and the message is the necessary way to do that -that's what we do well."
