Very important poll from Kentucky asking if Rand should drop out, hit it out the park

[eleganz]

If this poll results show that any small minority or even majority want Paul to drop out, politico will make a big stink about it and we all know what happens when politico fibs. :roll eyes:

But only this time they will try to make the case that even Rand's own constituents want him to disappear and are losing hope in their Senator.

Poll located mid-page right side.

Voted! I think this is important... people tend to dismiss online polls, but notice this publication actually reported on the results of their last poll. This reaches people that aren't reached by the same online resources we have.

And so far, only Rand and Bush are on the ballot in KY.

Just voted, the current numbers are:

Yes - 52.4%
No - 45.8%

We need more people to vote, someone needs to pump this outside of this forum if possible.

No 50.1% (408 votes)
Yes 48.3% (392 votes)

Not a lot of votes in this poll so we should be able to still make a significant impact. Keep voting and spreading it around

We're losing by a couple tenths of a point.

The Daily News reader poll this week asked “Do you believe U.S. Sen. Rand Paul should drop out of the presidential race to focus on his Senate re-election?” The results Friday afternoon were 80.1 percent “yes” and 17.6 percent “no” with 2.2 percent “unsure.”

That's amazing! Probably about the time that other votes were cast against those of the newz staff at the direction of the manager.

It's now 71.1/21.8 No. One thing to keep in mind is that Kentucky is really much more of a Blue state than Red one. So the poll should really look to focus on KyGOP but it is a reader poll. So if you're a Dem in Ky you've been floating crap like Rand is buying an election with the Caucus.
But at the end of the day I don't think Ky cares one way or the other right now. Rand has fulfilled his obligation as Senator, continues to be present in DC to vote (still at 99%), and is stumping for the KyGOP in the upcoming Statewide elections.
Given that there is no one who has emerged to run against him yet, they (unnamed sources) should shush. For the KyGOP, which is perpetually broke, I think they are concerned about fundraising. Mitch should be able to help with that next year.

It's doing good, but vote if you haven't already

I don't think it matters the headline is this article in the paper. Too bad we didn't get to it earlier...... Oh well most of the article is positive in nature.

It might not yet be time to write an obituary for Rand Paul’s presidential aspirations.

Kentucky’s junior U.S. senator from Bowling Green has insisted that his presidential campaign is a marathon and not a sprint, and a poll released this week shows some progress in Paul’s bid for the Republican nomination.

In a new CNN poll, Paul was at 5 percent, The Washington Post reported this week.

“It shows we’re heading in the right direction,” Paul told the Post. “Ever since the last debate, it shows we’ve been building up support. I think we’re actually under-represented even in that recent CNN poll, because the youth vote is under-reported. There aren’t as many young people who answer these polling calls, but we have over 3,000 students that have agreed to caucus with us in Iowa.”

In a RealClearPolitics average of national polls, Paul was at 3.2 percent, good enough for eighth place.

The Daily News reader poll this week asked “Do you believe U.S. Sen. Rand Paul should drop out of the presidential race to focus on his Senate re-election?” The results Friday afternoon were 80.1 percent “yes” and 17.6 percent “no” with 2.2 percent “unsure.”

Time magazine also reported that one bright GOP star isn’t shining as brightly in the most recent presidential polls.

“Republican presidential candidate Carly Fiorina saw her post-debate bump drop in a CNN/ORC International national poll released Tuesday,” Time reported. “The former Hewlett-Packard CEO climbed in the polls after a strong performance at the first undercard Republican debate and an appearance on the main stage at the second debate. A CNN poll in September had her at 15 percent, putting her in second place. But in the latest poll, she dropped to just 4 percent.”

Paul decided to turn back the clock this week to a tense time in America, when the Cold War between the United States and the Soviet Union dominated politics.

Paul told the Washington Examiner that Americans are “really lucky” that GOP presidential candidate Sen. Marco Rubio wasn’t president during the Cold War since Rubio supports use of force against Russian aircraft in Syria.

Paul told CNBC “that a no-fly zone in Syria and military conflict with Russian forces is a ‘terrible idea’ and antithetical to former President Ronald Reagan’s ‘peace through strength’ doctrine,” the Examiner reported.

“We are really lucky (Rubio) was never president during the Cold War,” Paul told CNBC’s John Harwood.

Agree. Aside from them jumping the gun on the poll results, the associated article is mostly positive. And I'll happily take the header. Gimme more like this...
