THE EDGE: MEDIA GETS BACK ON THE TRUMP TRAIN
The national media’s Donald Trump obsession is back and as intense as ever. After falling into something like parity with his chief rivals after his Iowa defeat, media mentions of Trump skyrocketed after his New Hampshire win.
A media measurement taken by New Analytics before and after Tuesday’s primary shows that Trump is back to doubling up the media mentions of his next closest competitor. Number two this week is Ohio Gov. John Kasich, who saw media mentions spike on his runner-up finish in New Hampshire.
As for the rest of the pack, media attention was spread evenly among the trio that essentially tied for third in the Granite State: Ted Cruz, Marco Rubio, and Jeb Bush. Ben Carson, on the other hand, is approaching absolute zero.
The team at New Analytics has built The Edge, a unique tool to measure which candidates are being talked about the most, and provided the first look to Fox News First.
Here are the percentages for the candidate’s shares of national mainstream media mentions on Feb. 10. Points gained or lost from before New Hampshire are listed in brackets. See the full results here.
Donald Trump 41.6 [+7.57]; John Kasich 19 [+11.2]; Ted Cruz 12.9 [-1.1];Marco Rubio 12.9 [-11.6]; Jeb Bush 12 [-3.25]; Ben Carson 1.1 [-3.3]
Trump turns up Bush bashing ahead of Dubya’s campaign debut - The Hill: “Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump is mocking rival Jeb Bush for bringing his brother, former President George W. Bush, to help campaign. ‘Don’t fall asleep when I mention the name,’ Trump said, when he brought up Jeb Bush during a rally in Louisiana on Thursday. ‘I see he’s bringing his brother in now. He tried the mother, who’s a very nice lady, I’m sure, but he tried the mother. That didn’t work out so good,’ he said. ‘Now he’s bringing in his brother.’”
[USA Today: “Former president George W. Bush will make his long-awaited public debut on the campaign trail with his brother, former Florida governor Jeb Bush, on Monday. They’ll appear at a rally in North Charleston, S.C., a campaign official confirmed.”]
Getting rougher - Conservative group Club for Growth Action, launched a new anti-Trump ad in South Carolina backed by $1.25 million that hits the celebrity billionaire for not having conservative values.
[Watch Fox: Bret Baier anchors “Fox News Reporting: Voter Revolt” on what is fueling the rise of Sanders and Trump. Tune in tonight at 10 p.m. ET and catch additional airings Saturday and Sunday at 8 p.m. ET]
Oh, because political ads are so much classier? - NYT: “The campaign of Senator Ted Cruz of Texas released a biting negative ad against Senator Marco Rubio of Florida on Thursday, featuring a mock focus group and a woman decrying Mr. Rubio as nothing more than a ‘pretty face.’ Few will see that ad, however. The woman who made the comment in the ad is a soft-core pornography actress. The woman, Amy Lindsay, as first reported by BuzzFeed, has appeared in multiple movies with titles like ‘Carnal Wishes,’ ‘Insatiable Desires’ and ‘Private Sex Club.’ Ms. Lindsay told BuzzFeed that she was a Christian conservative and a Republican, deciding between supporting Mr. Cruz or Donald J. Trump. The Cruz campaign pulled the ad soon after the report on Thursday.”
[A new ad from the Cruz camp hits Donald Trump on eminent domain using the woman whose home Trump wanted Atlantic City to seize so he could build a parking lot.]
Rubio’s comeback play - With his analysis as smooth as his pocket silk, David Drucker lays out Marco Rubio’s new strategy with a narrowed field in the first-in-the-South primary: “‘This isn’t a resume competition; it’s about judgment,’ senior Rubio advisor Todd Harris told the Washington Examiner on Thursday.”
Kasich nets Christie whale - WaPo: “Republican presidential candidate John Kasich’s campaign has secured the coveted support of billionaire Ken Langone, who will join the team to help with fundraising as it seeks to build out a robust national campaign infrastructure.”
Power Play: Dirty South - As the GOP heads south, can Donald Trump clinch another victory, or will evangelicals and conservatives come out again in force for Ted Cruz? GOP strategist Mercedes Schlapp and Democratic operative Chuck Rocha give their take to Chris Stirewalt. WATCH HERE.
