All hypothetical polls are weak for the reasons I gave in previous post. These are not polls that just I think are hypothetical...they literally are hypothetical in that they do not accurately reflect reality at the time they are taken. In this case, it is head to head Trump vs Cruz...that does not exist presently. There are Rubio and Kasich in there as well...
I did not mean to disparage Cruz supporters, I just reflect on the apparent need for them to build themselves up by depending upon hypothetical polls...hey, us Trumpsters are also nervous about these primaries.
The line-up of candidates in this race has been changing by the week. So the real polls often become as hypothetical as the hypothetical ones before the actual voting starts.
