I'd say that it's a pretty safe prediction, still.

But yeah, I'm pretty sure Silver will be the first to tell you that he was wrong if Trump gets the nomination. The guy makes predictions, he doesn't pretend to have secret access to the future.

In a brand new Zogby Analytics poll of likely GOP caucus and primary voters, Donald Trump receives 45% of the total vote, with Ted Cruz in a distant second place at 13%, followed by Marco Rubio with 8%, Jeb Bush 6%, Ben Carson 4%, Carly Fiorina and John Kasich tied with 3%, and Rand Paul, Chris Christie, Mike Huckabee and Rick Santorum all tied with 2%. Ten percent are undecided.

Trump polls over 40% among men (49%) and women (41%), as well as Republicans (47%) and independents (49%), conservatives (46%) and moderates (45%). Cruz scores double digits among men (10%), women (16%), Republicans (15%), independents (10%), and conservative (15%).

We tested a series of three-way races and found Trump trouncing all of his rivals: 53% to 20% for Cruz, and 11% for Mr. Rubio; 57% to 23% for Cruz, and 8% for Christie; 57% to 23% for Cruz and 7% for Kasich; 55% to 25% for Cruz, and 10% for Bush.

In a series of head-to head match-ups with individual challengers for the nomination, Trump led Cruz 59% to 29%, Rubio 64% to 27%, Bush 68% to 22%, Kasich 73% to 15% and Christie 69% to 19%.

Nobody on this site does that, do they?

Ted Cruz (R-TX) revealed Thursday that he and his family -- including his two young daughters -- are not currently coveredby health insurance. His reason? The 2016 ...

Bloomberg, no worries....

"With former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg reportedly considering a presidential run as an Independent, a Morning Consult Poll found that he would draw from Clinton’s support in a three-candidate matchup among Bloomberg, Clinton and Trump.

Trump received 37 percent, Clinton had 36 percent and Bloomberg snagged 13 percent, according to the results."

Trump bests Ted Cruz in Iowa and now receives 34 percent support among Republican caucus-goers. Trump was at 23 percent in the Fox News Poll two weeks ago (January 4-7).

Cruz is second with 23 percent -- down a touch from 27 percent. Marco Rubio comes in third with 12 percent, down from 15 percent. No others garner double-digit support.
