Paul beats Bush 5 to 4 in Iowa 1/18-1/24 Quinnipiac Poll

[SilentBull]

Dups

I think we can say with relative certainty that the CBS poll will not be included. It was skipped over in the last debate.
So the way I see it, worst case tie.

 

[rg17]

Ha! Ha! Santorum and Gilmore have 0%!

Rand is trading at 93 cents to make the debate on PredictIt, so he's probably in.

Everything? Really? You're an idiot and have lost all credibility.

I just read the rules and I was spot on for the most part. Rand doesn't qualify nationally which is the average of polls. Must be top 6. CNN poll out today crushed that if included. Where I was slightly wrong was with the states. Must place average of top 5 in either instead of reaching a threshold. Bush makes it with NH polls easily, Rand does not in NH. Rand will be close in Iowa depending on which polls used.

Good to know you are able to go back, read the rules and correct yourself. Next time, read the rules before posting about it.

KBUR is a robopoll, they want live polling.

Good to know. There's no way they can include that one then.

I hope they use the Iowa State poll.. Kinda being ignored. Not the most recognized poll when looking at it, but I believe it meets the Criteria.. Similar situation as the IBD/TIPP poll that booted Huck and Christie off the main stage that one time.

I would think not. Beating Bush in a state is irrelevant. My understanding is there is an average rule nationally then if that is not met, one must poll at certain number in either Iowa or NH. Bush is in because of NH. Not sure if 5% gets Rand in.

Its has nothing to do with percentages, it's about top 5 in either state poll or top 6 nationally.

What's up with the seemingly constant negativity? Thoughts hold more power than you know. It's time we all start praying for those that do or start focusing positive thoughts on Rand winning Iowa for those that do not!

Rand is going to be in!! I'm quite positive about it! And then Rand will drop truth-bombs and ends up getting the undecided voters to show up on Monday! Buckle up, buckaroo, we're in for a long trip to the infinity! For liberty!!!

 

[TheNewYorker]

Knowing Fox news, they will probably use the KBUR poll to keep Rand out.

If they say top 5, and Rand averages in top 5 then he's there. Same for Bush in NH.

He needs to destroy Ted Cruz on missing the Audit The Fed vote, even though it was a couple weeks ago now!

 

[EBounding]

Cruz could retort that Rand missed one of the Iran votes though.

 

[CPUd]

Cruz doesn't really attack in person. He just calls the other guy a liar.

-neg rep for boneheaded negativity. Now you have a little less "to be proud of".

If you wanted to find out what the ACTUAL rules for mainstage debate inclusion were, as opposed to your suppositions, a 30-second Google search would suffice.

The rules have also been posted here at several different times in several different threads here at RPF.
Here’s a link again.

He needs to
1) Destroy Ted Cruz
2) Destroy all others
3) Mention his amazing ground game in Iowa
4) Reassert that he's the best against Clinton
5) Take on Trumps stupid wall idea, and assert that instead of a wall, it's much cheaper and easier to end the reasons that illegals cross the border to begin with, such as employment and drivers licenses to illegals. No matter how strong of a wall that gets built, they will still find a way as long as they have a good reason to come here.
6) Mention how Fox keeps leaving him off poll results, as evidenced by this video

7) He needs to stop saying "I think"
8) needs to insult Obama, boobus loves that

The wall is stupid. One of my vendors has a son who worked on a border fence section. Overnight, tire tracks showed up on either side of the fence section they had just built. They found a teeter-totter truck that had been built for the purpose of driving over the fence.
The people who want to come across the border are smarter than the people who want to build a wall.
