Smart Republicans.... there are a few.

6 points isn't that much. I've also seen him as high as 12%.  A few more Clinton emails and a few more Donald Trump.....well being Donald Trump and he could get those 6 points. The rules for debate say you have to make 15% in 4 national polls. Considering that Republicans are going to defect from Trump, are they going to go to Hillary Clinton, whom they traditionally loath, or a ticket with two former Republican governors on it? I hope he gets to 15%, someone who is a ceo of a marijuana company should make the debates more fun. Johnson only hurts Trump anyway, so hopefully I don't hear any 'a vote for Johnson is a vote for Trump' crap.

The think is, they don't say which national polls they are going to use to make that determination in advance. I would presume they will try to find national polls where Johnson is below 15% to disqualify him. The only way he's making it is if he breaks 15% in ALL the reputable national polls. Speaking as someone who is cynical on the matter.

I'm pretty sure there are actual set rules on the matter, there are certain polls that are national polls and he only have to make 15% in 4 of them. They were set up that way during the second Perot run.
