538 has a new ARG NH poll up, but their link is broken. Maybe it's not public yet.

That looks like a good number for Kasich at first glace. Then I looked at how much how he has dropped in a few weeks in that poll. Whoops

Surprised Trump's numbers in NH haven't dropped more.

Weird that Jeb is running ads against Trump instead of Rubio. Even if they are split he should be going 100% after Rubio. Might as well endorse Rubio imo.

I think it is only among political junkies and the media that Trump is being portrayed as a loser, or that he's cooked. He has a loyal base of supporters that aren't going to jump ship as easily, especially not in a primary.

I'm basing that on the last six months of reading how Ted Cruz has been quietly romancing Paul supporters with whispers of his "strong libertarian values." Paul blames Cruz for siphoning off much of his support he expected to have this election.

No way Rubio makes up a 20-point gap in five days, over a weekend.

At least in NH, the winnowing doesn't seem to be enough to catch Trump. Anyone have a fresh SC poll?

Christie turns on the heat:

quote:

“I will tell you one thing Marco Rubio has done,” Christie said Thursday on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe.” “He’s made it very clear that on the issue of pro-life, that Marco Rubio is not for an exception for race, rape, incest or life of the mother. Now, you know, I think that’s the kind of position that New Hampshire voters would be really concerned about.”

If Trump actually wins NH then I think he'll win SC.

Nevada I think will go Rubio, and Super Tuesday is going to be a gong show if that holds.

But I'll be real, after Iowa I have no idea if Trump can hold on.

Marco Rubio supports rich white mothers who don't want their social status to be lowered by having a racially mixed baby.

Rubio is going to be unstoppable, even if all of the remaining candidates team up to destroy him. He will continue to refuse to acknowledge any attack and immediately launch into regurgitating his stump speech.

No Rubio is told two weeks in advance of the insults he's going to receive, so it's a failure of not rehearsing in the mirror enough.

I mean, I'm not even sure Trump has a 20 point lead in NH. It's one thing to say "Rubio can't make up that much ground" but who knows if the polls are actually, y'know, right.

As long as he finishes on top of the Governors they're going to GTFO (except Jeb!)
