JUST IN: New GAME-CHANGING poll from Indiana…



A new state poll released this afternoon shows, for the first time, a dramatic lead for Sen. Ted Cruz in next week’s critical Indiana primary.

Via The Hill:

Ted Cruz leads Donald Trump by double digits in a new poll of Indiana, which hosts the next contest in the GOP presidential primary on Tuesday.

The Texas senator leads the real estate mogul 45 percent to 29 percent among registered voters, according to a poll by the Mike Downs Center for Indiana Politics.

Go Cruz!

I wouldn't get too enthused over California polls.  Carly Fiorina may have an impact in California.

Counting on you Hoosiers to end this nightmare, this clown called Donald Trump.

Things are looking very good.

I like the poll result, but would caution against taking it by itself.  The IPFW was taken over a two week timeframe, so its a bit different.

I remember the Trump team touting the Wisconsin ARG poll showing they were up by 10 points in which Cruz won by 13 points.

Most of the polls have the race pretty close except ARG and IPFW.

Yep I think that goes for all polls.

Of course, those of us following closely know this latest poll is just one of many — and suggests a dramatically different state of affairs than the other polls, which show Trump in the lead. The RealClearPolitics average of polls shows Trump with a 5-point advantage over Cruz, though the next most recent before the Downs Center poll shows a statistical tie — with Trump leading by two, which is within the poll’s 4.75 point margin of error.

Meanwhile, Donald Trump received the endorsement of legendary Indiana Hoosiers basketball coach Bobby Knight, along with some surprise words of support from so-called GOP “establishment” types, including former rival Sen. Marco Rubio.

Bobby Knight???

Yes, Bobby Knight, a great leader, motivator, mentor and basketball coach.

Knight's academic successes rival his athletic ones. At Indiana, he graduated nearly 80 percent of his players. The national average for Division I schools is 42 percent. He endowed two chairs, one in history and one in law, and he raised millions for the library. He's doing the same at Texas Tech, donating $10,000 to a fund that's now raised $100,000. To increase graduation rates, he wants the NCAA to adopt this rule: Revoke a team scholarship for every player who doesn't graduate within five years. (Under that sort of stricture, some NCAA teams wouldn't have any scholarships left.)

...and he endowed one across the basketball court.

Didn't he say Trump was great because he would push the button?

Don't leave out the endorsement that trump spoke highly of, from Mr Rapist himself.

No.  Former Hoosiers' basketball Coach Bobby Knight said Donald Trump could be as good a president as Harry Truman in that he wouldn't be afraid "to drop the bomb" like Truman did in World War II.
