I agree that he didn’t think he would actually have to do any work…but its a bit shocking how strongly he believed that. He blew off the Koch brother audition, and blew off a big supporter with deep pockets so he could go to the beach. And this is from a guy whose campaign is at the very bottom of the barrel in terms of first quarter fund raising.

Any hit to Walker makes it a good day. If Jeb doesn’t win NH is he finished?

Doesn’t NH generally bring the kooks to the fore?
Walker -11
I see you saved the best for last. Thanks for the silver lining!

I’m a little concerned with the trend lines in the Bush vs. Clinton graph. At the moment Bush seems to be spinning his wheels in the Republican contest, but it’s still quite possible that he may end up the eventual nominee.
Seems like a good number for Kasich, more than I would have expected.

What? I hadn’t heard about that one. It figures. Rand surrounds himself with sycophants and the types dumb enough to think he’s brilliant.
I’m not hearing a damn thing about his ballot issue anymore. I think you’re right that he’ll drop out sooner than later. He has, I believe, until the end of January to get on the ballot in KY for the Senate race. So, he does have a little time. Plus, with all that money his dad is making selling newsletters on MSNBC, I’m sure he’ll be fine for a few more months.

That’s what happens when you grow up the son of conspiracy theory royalty, go onto make up your own designation as an eye doctor, and then happen to run in and win a Senate race in a year where the stars couldn’t be more perfectly aligned for your candidacy.

And when Gallup and others had Romney leading big over Pres. Obama nationally in 2012,the needle only moved in NC in the state-by-state polls.
This is great. I hope that Trump’s momentous momentum continues until he gets the Republican nomination. I suspect however that the corporate kleptocrat-dominated Republican establishment will collude with the sleazy Bushes try to destroy him in every way possible.

Yeah, the state of Live Free or Die disgraces itself.
Heh.
I simply went from most gains to most lost (and alphabetical in the 0 moment names but think of it as an inverse bell curve of “best” … with Trump +18 and Walker - 11 at each end …
Yes!

I would also add that Trump has zero need for donors or endorsements. Which Nate seems to put value in. Which would make sense in previous and (and rational analysis) cycles, but in the post Citizens United world with an egomaniac with billions to burn, render those two factors a meaningless factoid at best.

I don’t think so. But he isn’t really contesting Iowa, is he does bad in NH, he may be in serious trouble, but he has enough of a war chest and there have been plenty of nominees (even winners) of both parties who did not win one of the two contests.

Which is fine by me.
I hope Trump garners enough support (and holds it) to be that big enough of a threat that the Bush clan has to go nuclear on him. Even if they win, they lose. The GOP “establishment” going massively scorched-earth on Trump will kill their tea-party “base” which already consider him a RINO.
Look at Trump wagging the Fox tail already.
Josh has it right when he said “If the Democrats invested every dime they had to engineer the perfect agent provocateur to infiltrate and unhinge the GOP they could not come up with anything like this.”

Well, HRC did have a comment about Trump the other day I believe. 
Frankly these polls don’t mean a thing. There is no data on where Trump was on the same poll before the debate. The only poll that came out today that compares apples with apples is the Rasmussen polls that shows that support for Trump has been cut by a third (26% to 17%.) Check it out…
