CNN/ORC National Poll – Marco Rubio and Ted Cruz Suffer Stunning Drops, Trump and Carson Gain…
The Conservative Treehouse ^ | 2/29/2016 | Sundance

Posted on 02/29/2016 7:28:16 PM PST by GilGil

A new CNN/ORC national poll (full pdf below) is being highlighted in the media discussion based on the top-line results: Donald Trump 49% !

However, that’s not the real headline in the data. The real lead story should be the damage Marco Rubio and Ted Cruz have done to themselves as they continue a scorched-earth campaign.

The first signals of a backlash appeared over the weekend’s polling when it became clear Senator Rubio and Senator Cruz where losing support at an exponential rate the longer they continued to make unfounded accusations. Donald Trump and Ben Carson are benefactors of the Rubio/Cruz kamikaze mission.

Could this be why Trump is tied with Cruz in Texas in the last 3 polls? Trump has obliterated Cruz' lead to nothing. Wow!

Yeah, but that was before some guy’s wife endorsed Ted. That was a game changer.

I guess the Trumpsters are feeling doubts about tomorrow.

That must be why we get these re-posts every five minutes of how dear leader is polling.

HOW THE HELL IS TRUMP SUPPOSED TO WIN, when over half of the Republicans surveyed (above) will NEVER vote for him? WE NEED JEB!!!!

(my imitation of a TDS sufferer...although they’d say Cruz instead)

It’s funny how Trump was required to sign a loyalty oath but everyone else on the team has no such requirement. How terribly double standard.

That is so true. I used to think Cruz was a good guy and that Trump was hitting him a little too hard. What this has shown the world is that Cruz really is a liar and a cheat and a rattle snake. He is lower than Trump.

The GOP establishment and MSM’s coordinated assault on Trump has only made more popular.

Negative advertising and in your face attacks on the Teflon Don have left his opponents burned.

Trump and nice guy Carson gained support at their expense.

Democrats will discover burying Trump in an avalanche of negative advertising and in your face attacks isn’t going to take him down.

Trump seems pretty much invulnerable.

Many of us tried to tell Cruzbots here it was a big mistake for Cruz
to team up with Rubio and attack Trump at the recent debate.

Many here were giddy.

Cruz should have never teamed up with Rubio and especially Glenn Beck.

Perhaps the ONLY mistake Trump has made in this campaign was to not REQUIRE GOPe types to also sign that pledge - in other words, if Trump ended up with the nomination, they would PLEDGE to support him. Prior to that, they could support other GOP candidates...but he didn’t demand that, when he could have.
