Unfortantley, it appears Perry & Jindahl have about as much of a chance as a snowball in Hell. But I'll still support Ted Cruz over all the rest of them.

The only poll worthwhile is the one where people VOTE! Everything else is doodly-squat.

Hard to believe Huck is higher in the poll than Cruz. There are a lot of people I'd vote for ahead of Huck.

Polls mean very little right now. It's something for TV to .report. on.

I'm not surprised to see Cruz falling behind - he hasn't been newsworthy lately - and doing something bad to be in the news is better than doing nothing at all.

Good...that's where you want to be at this stage in the game.

I'm a Rand man for now, but Walker is definitely my second choice if Rand doesn't get the nomination. Unfortantley, it appears Perry & Jindahl have about as much of a chance as a snowball in Hell. But I'll still support Ted Cruz over all the rest of them. Perry? Seriously? That PoS showed exactly what he was made of the last time when threw the game. Perry, Retarded Jeb or Christie Creeme will NEVER get a vote from me. I'd rather see Hitlery get in. At least I'll know that she is a real enemy attacking from the front instead of getting back-stabbed by the likes of those three.

Huck is a disingenuous man. He talks the a Christian talk but will play politics before he stands up for what he says he believes in.
Cruze all the way for me. He has more common sense in the head of his dik than the rest have above their neck.

Like I said before, I believe Cruz and Walker are willing to get in the ring and get a little bloody. That is exactly what is needed based on where the country is right now. Why? It motivates the base to get out to the polls. Yes, the same GOP base that stayed home in 2012.
It's all about enthusiasm of the base.
Only poll that matters is election day.

was listening this morning to a discussion on gay marriage.
In 1986 the supreme court upheld a law in Georgia that stated it was a criminal act to engage in a homosexual relationship. One justice noted that homosexuality was a crime against nature.
17 years later the supreme court shot down an almost identical law in Texas stating that all men (and women) are entitled to liberties that no government can interfere with.
in 2015, 58% of Americans now support gay marriage. That is up from 32% 10 years ago
81% of people under the age of 30 support 33% of current conservatives support it.
My point is - one of two things is going to happen with the GOP in order for them to stay relevant - either the evangelicals who refuse to support a candidate that does not support morality/social issues are going to be marginalized by candidates no longer caring what they say, or they will have to accept that there is no place for morality issues in political candidate running for the white house.
At some point that will extend to running for the senate.
