WASHINGTON -- Donald Trump continues to lead in national polls among the many GOP contenders for president, but members of Utah's all-Republican congressional delegation said they believe voters will make a different choice.
"It's a problem because he's both an asset and a tremendous liability," Sen. Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, said of the possibility the billionaire businessman and reality TV star could become the Republican nominee in 2016.
Trump is attracting huge crowds, "telling people what they want to hear, and they're all mad at everybody here" in Washington, Hatch said. "But you still have to be responsible, no matter what the polls show or anything else."(continued)

Orrin Hatch.... a serial bait and switch RINO.
Hatch? The RINO needs o look in a mirror!
RINOs need to get out of the way.
The Trump train is coming!
Hatch, just another tool of the Global Corporate Elite.
Jeez, the Utah delegation (the ones that won’t need to be voted in) is largely going Rubio or Bush...gag me with a spoon! Mia Love is staying in submission to her RINO masters, sad to say.
Yep... we're hoping we'll get that for a change.
Mia Love is such a disappointment...campaigned against amnesty, then backed it, just like all the Utah Mormons
Orrin Hatch should retire and go pound sand. Sold us all out. GOPeahen DeLuxe
The hell with Utah and urine snatch.
Sigh ~ at one time I thought I’d like to move to Utah, guess maybe I should rethink that.
So?....When was Orrin Hatch ever responsible?
The Hatchling has been pretty irresponsible for decades.
So you mean candidates that run on support from big donors have to vote a certain way to pay them back? Something to remember when considering the R presidential candidates. Only one is not beholden to anyone....
Continuing to show how out of touch they are, because they just don’t care.
Only billionaires should be president. Billionaires never have an agenda. If you’re not a billionaire then you can’t be trusted. Only billionaires don’t have to pander.
1. If "everybody" in Washington conducted themselves By The Consent Of The Governed they would not BE "mad at everybody."
2. If "everybody" in Washington conducted themselves By The Consent Of The Governed it would not be "what they want to hear."
Hatch said he suspects Trump won't be able to win over a majority of Republicans.
Maybe not but he IS winning over a lot of Republicans AND a lot of democrats AND a big chunk of black and hispanic voters.
And when you put all that together you get a very nervous G-O-P, right Mr. Hatch?
.
Great, then Trump will be a great President!
