Political Interlude
On Thursday NBC broke out a new national poll showing Trump at 33, 13 over Cruz, and 20 over Rubio and then Carson. A Gravis poll showed Trump by 6 over Cruz in Iowa, and Rubio way back in the pack with about 5%. This poll I think has issues; they also did one of the Dems and showed Clinton with a 21-point lead, while an Iowa state poll released today showed Clinton down to a 2-point lead.
