Surprise: Trump Falls Behind Cruz in National NBC/WSJ Poll 400 registered republicans prefer Cruz over Trump, and you are surprised by that? Get educated, please. You and that poll are embarrassing to intelligent people.

Trump leads in S Carolina by some huge margin(s) , Donald doesn't bother me at all, the honesty is kind of refreshing. To be there in the voting booth when certain 'evangelicals' have to search deeply into their shallow 2" souls for guidance, then forced to check Trump would be priceless. Jesus or Carpet bombing? No contest, unless you mention the rapture!

Surprise: Trump Falls Behind Cruz in National NBC/WSJ Poll Educate yourself: Three Strikes – Third Time This Campaign Season NBC/WSJ Caught Promoting “Agenda Polls”… <snip> This poll is not data from a valid polling organization, it’s from a PR firm. NBC/WSJ take the PR firm data and sell it as if they themselves, the media, conducted the poll. They didn’t. The technique the media use is the same as all previous attempts and carried the same basic elements in delivery: ? #1 – The polling sample size is heavily manipulated and intensely small. This “national poll” result is based on 400 contacts. ? #2 – To hide what is transparent in #1, they do not reveal the polling methodology or internals. (Same as all prior agenda polling.) They hide the poll data – SEE HERE – You’ll immediately note how chopped up it is. ? #3 – To protect their lack of integrity being fully dismissed they use multiple “disclaimers” (as noted above) ? #4 – Agenda Pollsters have a history which evidences the first three elements. Meaning they are repeat offenders. ? #5 – And lastly, yet again, an “agenda poll” doesn’t match anyone else’s polling, and it doesn’t even remotely pass the proverbial “sniff test”. <more at link>
