All sides are very selective about which poll that they choose to flaunt....and there are many to choose from too...Iowa poll, Mass. Poll, polls for different age groups, yada yada..........who do we believe....?


The FiveThirtyEight.com site (part of ESPN, also does sports odds) tracks all decent polls and weights them based on how good their methods are (lots of obscure statistics reasons) and by their past history of how accurately they predict particular elections.
Here is their summary of the IOWA primaries:

Pres. Obama issued the ninth veto of his presidency last Tuesday, rejecting a Republican resolution that would have overturned federal regulations on clean water. This vote took place in the middle of the Flint water crisis. Unbelievable!

Forgive my mistake. It was Jerry Falwell JR.  Trump spoke at a conservative Christian college and said, "Two Corinthians", and the prez of the university still endorsed him?  I can't wrap my mind around that.  https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/post-politics/wp/2016/02/01/liberty-university-president-jerry-falwell-jr-insists-his-endorsement-of-donald-trump-is-a-personal-one/

MSNBC. Lest it be taken out of context why not post what the GOP is afraid this administration would do Jon?

I'll do it for you.

QuoteThe GOP says the administration is seeking to assert federal control over puddles, ditches, areas that are occasionally wet and other large sections of private or state land in violation of the intent of the Clean Water Act.

They say the rule would be disastrous to farmers, developers, landowners and other businesses that would need a federal permit for routine tasks such as digging ditches.

?The federal government shouldn?t be regulating every drop of water,? said House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee Chairman Bill Shuster (R-Pa.), whose panel has authority over water policy.

?Just about every wet area in the country is open to federal regulation under this rule,? he added. ?The rights of landowners and local governments will be trampled.?

Given that you can be arrested for collecting rain water in some states I would err on the side of caution. I can guarantee you Jon Republicans don't want dirty air, water etc. You just can't trust what Hussein and his ilk will do.

I don't know anything about the clean water act,other then if the GOP is against it,it must make sense and be a great idea.
