1. The Trump numbers look good

I especially do not like the closeness of the Cruz numbers.

I don't think that the general public knows Cruz very well, though.

His support will fall with increased exposure.

Rubio looks 27 to me. I don't see how he can win.

2. I have no idea what the "general public" thinks now a days, and sometimes I don't think they know

either

3. Personally, I don't care about any of the head to heads...

...except to the extent that they suggest that the race is close. That means Hillary will have the financial and organization resources to take on whomever the Republican is. The fact that Hillary or Bernie do better or worse against a particular Republican is meaningless.

4. I agree with you on the head to head polls. They are too hypothetical. I will pay attention when

there are two confirmed nominees running against each.
