OH, MY: Ted Cruz Takes Lead in Major National Poll

Please: no one tell Mr. Trump. He'll freak out, turn orange, and accuse the pollsters of lying.

Texas Sen. Ted Cruz has surpassed Donald Trump for the top spot in a new national survey of the Republican presidential race from NBC News/Wall Street Journal.

Cruz leads the poll with the support of 28 percent of those surveyed, followed by Trump at 26 percent, Florida Sen. Marco Rubio at 17 percent, Ohio Gov. John Kasich at 11 percent, and Ben Carson at 10 percent.

Trump dropped seven percentage points since last month, and hit his lowest point in the NBC/WSJ poll since October 2015 when Carson took the top spot. Cruz and Kasich each gained eight percentage points since January, the largest improvement of any candidate, and received their highest level of support ever in the poll.

"When you see a number this different, it means you might be right on top of a shift in the campaign," said Bill McInturff, who conducted the survey with a Democratic pollster on behalf of Hart Research Associates, to NBC.

This is just a single poll, to be sure. But one can only hope and pray that a man grounded in the Constitution since his youth can attain the presidency.

Say your prayers, my friends.

MARK LEVIN: Trump Sounds Like a "Radical Kook", Cuts Military Families to the Core with his "9/11 Truther Crap"

From The Mark Levin Show, 15 February 2016:

I watched that debate Saturday night. It was a disgrace. It was a disgrace. First of all, because that bum who is the chairman of the RNC -- I've been calling for his resignation since whenever -- packed that audience with his fat-cat donors and hangers-on and consultants and all the rest. There were times I couldn't even hear Ted Cruz's answer or Donald Trump's answer because they were being booed. Have you ever heard or seen that before? That's your 'Rinse' Priebus. That's your 'Rinse' Priebus...

NUMBERS USA: All of the Presidential Candidates' Report Cards on Immigration and Amnesty

Numbers USA is the nation's largest grassroots immigration-reduction organization, which was founded as a result of two national commissions, including President Clinton's Task Force on Population and Consumption.

NUSA issues Worker-Protection Immigration Grade Cards for each of the presidential candidates.

The results are in:

Could I have a Trump sandwich with a side of Soros, please?

Donald Trump has attacked Ted Cruz roughly a billion times over the last week for having taken out loans from Citibank and Goldman Sachs. Like most everything Trump says, his attacks are short on facts and even shorter on sense. He claims somehow that Cruz attempted to hide the loans, even though he openly disclosed them on public filings (just not the right ones).

On the other hand, Trump definitely can be bought and he most certainly does owe large amounts of money to some rather suspicious and nefarious people.

REASON #6,303 I LOVE ME SOME TED CRUZ: Pimp-slapping NBC's Chuck Todd Edition

I mean love in a totally platonic and manly kinda way, of course.

So, Sen. Cruz appeared on Meet the Press today and addressed the issue of naming a replacement of Supreme Court Justice Scalia. Those echoes you hear are the slaps Senator Cruz inflicted on the face of the Democrat hack/press release narrator Chuck Todd:

PARADE OF HATEFUL NUTJOBS: Classy Leftists React to Justice Scalia's Tragic Passing

With all the respect that you'd expect from the radical Marxist Left (i.e., the modern Democrat Party):


Do We Really Need Four More Years of This?

Remember this infamous NYT piece on then-Senator Barack Obama in September of 2008?
“I think that I’m a better speechwriter than my speechwriters,” Mr. Obama told Patrick Gaspard, his political director, at the start of the 2008 campaign, according to The New Yorker. “I know more about policies on any particular issue than my policy directors. And I’ll tell you right now that I’m going to think I’m a better political director than my political director.”
Now fast forward to the current election cycle:

DONALD TRUMP WANTS YOUR HOUSE: Because You're a F***ing Loser Standing in the Way of a Casino Parking Lot

By Star Parker

Donald Trump is running a pretty successful presidential campaign saying that he wants to "Make America Great Again."

But he seems to have very little interest in what exactly it is that makes America great.

This paradox is very much on display when Trump talks about eminent domain, the authority given to government in the constitution to take private property for public use.

Trump says, "Eminent domain is wonderful."

The Fifth Amendment to our Constitution tells us: "No person shall be ... deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation."

The key question is, what is "public use"?

LYING, PARTISAN HACK-WEASELS: Which is the term CNN prefers, I hear

By Renee Nal

At right, a Carson press release published on caucus night

In case you have not yet figured it out yet, CNN gave the distinct impression that Dr. Ben Carson was suspending his campaign on the night of the Iowa caucus. The report was used by the Ted Cruz campaign, who disseminated the information to precinct captains.

This information was also used by anyone who happened to check the news with their mobile phone during the Iowa Caucus.

It is absurd to consider that media types like Michael Smerconish, Business Insider, Buzzfeed and others were fooled by overly ambitious Ted Cruz precinct captains who were cherry picking information from a CNN report, as alleged by CNN correspondent Chris Moody.

THIS IS HOW IT STARTED:

PREDICTION VALIDATED: Trump Poll Numbers May Be Vastly Inflated Due to Reality Show Name Recognition

By Malcolm X. Cromwell

Two-and-one-half months before last week's Iowa Caucus, columnist S.A. Miller of The Washington Times noted what could be called "The Trump Effect" on poll numbers with an article entitled "Donald Trump seen unlikely to win in Iowa despite poll numbers":

Laura Kamienski, a Republican Party caucus precinct representative for Hiawatha District in Cedar Rapids ... said she expects a surprise in the caucus this cycle similar to former Sen. Rick Santorum’s unexpected win in 2012. Mr. Santorum is back in the 2016 Republican race but is polling near the bottom of the crowded field in Iowa and nationally.

...Pollsters defended their survey methods and stood by their numbers. But some credited Mr. Trump’s dominance in polls to his near-universal name recognition as star of the hit TV shows “The Apprentice” and “Celebrity Apprentice.”

CRUZ OR TRUMP? Let Jimmy Carter Be Your Guide

By Trevor Loudon

A lot of good people, including many friends of mine, have signed up to support Donald Trump for POTUS. That was understandable when Trump was saying great things about illegal immigration and the media was telling us Ted Cruz couldn’t win.

Now its very clear that Cruz can, and most probably will win, and Donald Trump has revealed himself as more “progressive” than principled.

In my view, restoring the US Constitution would solve the bulk of America’s social, economic and political problems in one fell swoop.

Ted Cruz memorized the entire Constitution at age 14. He has fought several important court battles to preserve it. Senator Cruz lives, eats and breathes the Constitution.

How many times have you ever heard Donald Trump even mention it?

NICE WORK, LI'L FALWELL: Evangelical Trump Drops F-Bomb in Major Speech With Kids in Audience

Last week, Iowa evangelical leader Robert Vander Plaats expressed surprise and confusion over the endorsement of Donald Trump by Jerry Falwell's son:

I’m just confused and flabbergasted by the endorsement. I don’t think his endorsement is going to move people. I think when people see Trump is not a conservative—he’s pro-choice. He’s not going to stand up for marriage. He’s not going to stand up to an activist court. He wants to make deals with the establishment and he’s shown judgment and temperament that people are very concerned [about].

As if to reinforce the notion that Trump is an opportunistic chameleon, today Mr. Trump dropped the F-bomb in a major speech in front of thousands of children.

"A REAL DUMMY": Mr. Trump's Impressive Talent as a Lying Bully Exposed (Chapter #633)

The tireless Jeff Dunetz has broken another intriguing scoop regarding Donald J. Trump's impressive talent as a world-class lying bully.

The backdrop of the story is simple: a political consultant named Cheri Jacobus was approached by the Trump campaign in May of 2015. A few days ago, though, the Trump campaign recounted the employment situation differently:

LIMBAUGH: Trump Lost Iowa Because He Attacked Cruz ‘Like A Liberal Democrat'

By Christian Datoc

Conservative radio host Rush Limbaugh said Tuesday that Donald Trump lost the Iowa caucus because his criticism of Ted Cruz made him sound “like a liberal Democrat.”

“I don’t think Trump skipping the debate had a thing to do with what happened last night,” began Limbaugh. “This is a Republican primary. It’s Iowa. Conservatives win in Iowa.”

The Constitution, Donald Trump and the Sarah Palin I Used to Know

By Jen Kuznicki

How is it possible to suggest that after all the exposure that Donald Trump has had, the positions he’s taken, and the smack he’s talked, that he is a constitutional candidate who most represents the constitutional restoration of our government, free market capitalism, and a return to our Judeo-Christian principles?

It seemed awfully strange that Sarah Palin would try to help Donald Trump, given that her most memorable speeches and work always seemed to track toward our founding and constitutional principles. I have been a Palin fan since 2008; in fact, my first ever published piece was in defense of this great Hockey Mom from the Great White North, who thought outside the box and drove the establishment crazy. She was the first true maverick of recent years.

The Most Important Sound-Bite of the Day...

...from the talking heads at FNC:


And doesn't that really say it all? The establishment wants Amnesty for illegals. Donald Trump supports "touchback Amnesty" for all 20+ million illegal aliens in the U.S. today (as he and his son have stated here, here and here). Vote accordingly.
