I started out liking Cruz, but realized pretty quickly that he’d never win the general election.

Trump has a 67% unfavorable rating among general election voters. He is the only GOP candidate who consistently loses to Hillary in the polls.

Yet he beat Ted Cruz like a drum on Super Tuesday. 1.8 million votes to 675k votes in FL&OH alone. Trump won every state in FL bar 1. Poor, middle class and rich. All Trump. Ted Cruz couldn’t dream of such a result.

Mr. Trump hasn’t even really started on Hitlery yet. His momentum is growing, regardless of the onslaught from the media.

If the left wanted Hitlery to face Mr. Trump, they would be going very easy on him. There’s no way they’d be melting down now, trying to make sure he doesn’t get the nomination. Moveon.org and the left would be targeting Cruz if they feared facing him, not Trump.

As of 3/14 that meme has been busted..Yougov reported, via Free Republic:

This is the first time Trump has garnered the support of a majority of Republican primary voters nationwide. YouGov’s February 24-27 survey marked his previous high, at 44% support. More surprising is Donald Trump’s favorability rating. Despite constant attacks by FOX News, the GOP establishment and liberal media Donald Trump has a higher rating than the other GOP candidates.

Is that all you got? Hillary’s unfavorable are at 56%.

Democrats are mad because she has not destroyed the country fast enough, thus the 56.

Republicans are mad because TRUMP is destroying the Establishment, thus the 67.

Oh, the horror! Let us all vote for Cruz and save the Establishement, who is rushing to his side. LOL!

I believe that when it comes to projecting Trump’s percentage in the primaries, in the aggregate the pollsters have been within 1%. They have identified and understood the quantitative support Trump has. Dead bullseye.

Interestingly, these very same pollsters have also quantified Trump vs. Hellary head-to-head something like 60 times, give or take. And of those polls, Hellary has won something like 90% of the time.

If they have zeroed in their methodology to predict Trump’s performance in the primaries, are they also correct in projecting the General Election? Just something to mull over.
