Poll Reading: Ahead of SC primary, Trump maintains sizable national lead over GOP field
(Excerpt) Read more at polling.reuters.com ...
Cruz supporters will be spamming this thread with anti-Trump material shortly.
Some Freepers won't take this news well:
Looking good.
I have my fingers crossed.
Judging from the frequency and fervor the NBC/WSJ outlier poll was spammed/posted here, I expect the Cruzer-Losers to be by shortly with fresh lies and talking points to try to dispute these numbers.
WOOHOO!!! GO.TRUMP.GO!!!
Bush?
Wow, that’s strong.
If you had asked me a couple of months ago, I’d have said Cruz should be leading easily in SC, Rubio second and Trump third.
If these numbers are anywhere close, Cruz is hurting. If he can’t win in SC, he’s got a problem everywhere but Texas.
Forgot...In before, “When’s the national primary” crowd.
Bush at 7.7%. Has a small but stubborn base, but no upside. Will be interesting when he drops out who his supporters go to. Probably not a lot to Trump. Kasich might benefit the most.
You guys... ":^)
This is a national poll.
For some strange reason he's not even showing up.
How can this be, I thought the NBC/WSJ poll had him at 28 and Cruz at 25?
He won't drop out for a while.
“He won’t drop out for a while.”
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
Yeah, if he stands on his tiptoes, he’s about even with Kasich.
Yep, went back and looked. Their wording implied it was SC.
Trump over-performed his polling by about 3% in NH. It will be meaningful if that also happens in SC.
I’m surprised that Cruz isn’t leading, with Rubio in second and Trump in third in this state.
What I’d believe most is a survey that happened AFTER the Pope made his ill-conceived remarks.
“I expect the Cruzer-Losers to be by shortly with fresh lies and talking points to try to dispute these numbers.”
On the other hand, why bother. In 32 hours or so we’ll have some real numbers and either be ecstatic or depressed (or, I suppose, in our current semi-muddle).
