You are correct in that these type of polls have less validity.
You are wrong if you think that they have no validity.
By the way, John Scott scored a goal and ended up with the MVP award in the NHL All Star game.

Too bad he's not in the league two weeks later -or when the game was on.
Those polls have no validity. Larry Voegele's stats have more validity. Otherwise I'm turning in my Masters in Statistics.

I thought Rubio showed enough of a pulse last night to be considered the "establishment" candidate again, but he's going to have to finish 2nd or a close 3rd (to Trump and Cruz) in South Carolina and the rest of them are going to have to drop out. He can't keep diving the vote with Bush and Kasich.
I actually thought Carson did well enough last night to damage Cruz a little. They are both competing for the evangelical vote. If he had had a bad night, Cruz would have consolidated a lot of that vote, but Carson might pick up 8%-10%.

I can't believe anybody would vote for Carson at this point...it's a wasted vote.

You missed what Charles Krauthammer described as "thermonuclear warfare."

Donald J. Trump ✔ @realDonaldTrump
Tickets for future debates should be put out to the general public instead of being given to the lobbyists & special interests - the bosses!

The Village Idiot usually does stand out.

Donald Trump won the SC debate because he alone mentioned the real issues that matter to the electorate: trade and job loss such as Carrier Corp.'s decision to leave Indiana for Mexico; he again mentioned his stand on illegal immigration and border security, and he reminded the country once more that people such as Jeb Bush, Marco Rubio and John Kasich are beholden to the corporate donor class.
Sure, Trump isn't as smooth a talker as a Gregory Peck, but substance over style usually wins most debates when the voting public pays attention.

I guess you and I are the only two who saw the same thing. This was the easiest debate to pick the winners and losers.

So the masses wanted to hear that 911 was GW Bush fault, instead of Clinton's fault that Rubio pointed out. Interesting conclusion.
