[SilentBull]

I didn't see this posted. This one came out this morning. http://www.cnn.com/2015/07/26/politics/cnn-orc-poll-data/index.html

Trump - 18
Bush - 15
Walker - 10
Cruz - 7
Rubio - 6
Rand - 6
Huckabee - 5
Carson - 4
Christie - 4
Kasich - 4
Perry - 3
Santorum - 2
Jindal - 2
Fiorina - 1
Graham - 1

Much better than the PPP one. Although, I'm surprised Cruz is higher than Rand here.

If Cruz gets covered on his Planned Parenthood floor fight, I suspect he'll get support.

Rand is doing the same thing, trying to force a vote to defund Planned Parenthood.

Rand was a total stud in the GOP when he had that clash with Debbie Wasserman~

He's getting a vote.


Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell has started a fast-track process to bring Paul's legislation for a vote soon, McConnell's spokesman told Reuters on Sunday.

It needs 60 votes. By my count, there are 57 pro-life Senators (54 GOPers and 3 Dems).

If that fails, perhaps he has another procedural trick up his sleeve.

No, there are about four or five Republican Senators who are "pro choice" and voted to fund Planned Parenthood in the past. There are no truly pro life Democrats as about three or four claim to be pro life, but every single Democrat last time around voted against cutting off funding to Planned Parenthood.

A couple interesting stats:

Over half the respondents see the field as wide open, and it's too early to say who they will support
