Discussion: Bush Rises To Second Place In New Hampshire Poll

TPM Article Topics

Slight correction, it wasn’t a poll of New Hampshire as in the state, it was a poll in the new housing development called The Hampshire, where Jeb just bought a house and a lot of his friends already lived.

Being in thrall as we’ve been conditioned be does no one any good, and Jeb* is no higher than five in NH and six in IA according to prediction markets.

Or it coulda been the frat house at Yale where Jeb* kicked up his heels that time.

Jeb* has 10% chance but Trumpf has 47% chance.

It sure seemed it would be 1992 again, but probably not.

The poll is suspect, though I don’t think Kasich’s ascension into the top half of the pack necessarily is. If he can be at the top of the “Not Trump” pack, it gives him oxygen for the other early states that aren’t South Carolina as the last best hope for the party to actually win in November, since he’s the best bet they have against Clinton

If Kasich is 4th or lower, he’s toast, but then again, so would be every other Not Trump candidate in the mix.

If there’s any basis behind this outlier, it testifies to a tried-and-true Bush family tradition: Act as if you’re a statesman, but pour millions of dollars in billionaire’s money into savaging your opponents with negative ads.

At least, Rubio and Kasich deserved the nasty hits from Team Bush.

Ya think Jeb got a boner from this poll?

Oh yeah get all excited by an off the wall poll showing Bush at # 2 in New Hampshire, the proof is in the pudding come Feb 9th in which he’ll be lucky to post at #5

34

Hah. Too bad he can’t find a cable show to interview him anymore so he can brag about it.

Emerson has no previous polls of Iowa or NH besides the ones they just released. The only other ones are national polls from a few months ago and Connecticut and Massachusetts. This is a college project, not a serious polling outfit.

Its a junk poll:

  1. IVR robo-calling - strike 1

  2. registered voters with no use of actual vote history in pulling sample - strike 2

  3. small sample size - strike 3
