In the last 48 hours we have had a consistent string of polls (these same polls that Trump has cited in the past) from Bloomberg/Fox/Washington Post/Monmouth/Emerson College/Quinnipiac, all pointing in one direction. That should Trump be the Republican nominee (God forbid!), conservatives should brace for a political Pearl Harbor. Hillary will finish the country off and then we’ll have the Trumpkins, who gave us this snake-oil salesman, hunting for scapegoats for this debacle, blaming anybody and everybody but themselves for this horrendous nominee.
You should like the people publishing these polls.
And yet Trump is beating the crap out of all the other candidates in vote counts. Perhaps you are being played by the msm.
Cruz can’t win Evangelicals against “NY Liberal” Trump. He’s never winning the general against a Dem. I don’t need a poll to know that. LOL.
Trump is the only candidate the Democrats and GOP Establishment fear.
Seriously...you’re at this again?
Okay, then why don’t you explain for us why Trump’s kicking Cruz’s A$$ thus far? Why don’t you further explain how a guy like Cruz, who can’t beat Trump, can beat Hillary?
Sorry, the but the desperation from you Cruz supporters is causing you to lose all ability to use reason and logic.
If Trump can’t win vs. Hillary, Cruz won’t stand a chance either.
Sure, Cruz will appeal to a similar segment of the population that found Santorum appealing last time around. And the rest of the base would grudgingly vote for Cruz. But he has no crossover appeal at all.
Gosh, I guess we better follow the polls. Nobody ever uses those to CREATE opinion rather than measure it.
Hey, tell me about the polls in March of 1980 and about Jimmy Carter’s second term again??
Show us an electoral map and point to us the battleground states where Ted Cruz is going to win. Yeah, the only one you’ll be able to color in is Texas. He’s toast in every other one. We should all feel confident that he got a whopping 17% in Florida and an equally whopping 13% in Ohio in Republican primaries. Yup, I’m confident Ted will do well in those states considering he’s shown no strength with independents. Cruz would get a Goldwater style thrashing, and he would be the absolute WORST candidate the GOP would put up in November.
"We've Only Just Begun"
Are we supposed to believe that turnout for the general election will go down for Trump, but up for Cruz in the general election if only "Trumpkins" would just stay at home for the primaries?
Supposedly you all are the smart ones, and we are the low-information disengaged (according to Cruzerlosers of course), yet somehow you bright people, using pretzel logic, claim a Cruz victory where Trump comes up short in the general. The pretzel comes in of course that we have to move out of the way so Cruz can become the nominee for the Republican Party, because we keep Ted from getting by Trump. Of course Ted then easily sails past Hillary. Is that with or without our help in the general? I'm so confused as to how we get this done.
My commodore is not computing that for some reason. Trump support keeps Ted from winning over Trump, but Trump support does not overcome Hillary Support. At the same token Cruz's inability to get by Trump, enables them to get by Hillary, but only if Trump supporters will get out of the way in the primary. Have I got this right?
Apparently you guys are thicker than bricks, and we are too smart to fall for your BS. Because that is all you guys have to offer, BS and it goes by the name of Cruz.
Cruz is McLame without The Palin.
Yes, a consistent string of propaganda. How heroic our media is for keeping us informed.
Hey, if Hillary will beat Trump so easily, then why is the New York Times and Hillary's other cheerleader news outlets so keen on assuring us of that?
Do they have our best interests in mind?
Are they trying to help the GOP?
I mean, wouldn't they prefer to face Donald Trump, if he's so easy to beat?
Lol! They're all scared sh!tless and they desperately want people to believe this spin, so as to weaken Trump.
How much more obvious could it be?
And it looks like Steelfish wants us to believe it, too, because he's appears to be one of the bubbas that actually seems to believe this boob bait!
That's why he's carrying the MSM/GOPe water so diligently!
I guess we're all supposed to base our Presidential preference on what the NYT and lamestream media propaganda machine "polls" say, 7 months out?
Lol! Go, Trump, go!
