Guys like Rove have become the enemy.

Ten years ago, if you were paying attention.

Here is the poll released today that he is quoting:

Poll: Donald Trump back on top, with Ted Cruz climbing into second.

I bring it up because buried in the article is this very interesting quote they are trying to downplay.

Trump leads among both men and women. He has more than a 20-point lead among non-college graduates (and a smaller lead among those with a college degree).

They can't let go of the media narrative that Trump is being supported by uneducated rednecks. Why did they not write this finding as "Trump leads among both men and women and both non-college and college graduates?"

I agree with that. I would just like for the country to survive in the process.

Don’t be buying Federal bonds.

Might be nothing to cash them against in a year.

I see a big Trump win too.

First off conservatives will show up again and independents and minorities like him so peal away 15 percent of Obama’s minority vote.

Hillary is going to be a disaster.

This whole Trump will be (insert whatever apocalypse) has grown tiresome.

I can’t take it anymore, and this I have grown to tune them out.

I like Trump, and I don’t think that he could be all that bad as president, certainly not as bad as Onambla has been, or Hillary will be.

Is he the ideal? No. But he’s the best available at this time.

Here’s something that the Pundit may not have taken into consideration.

If you go to Slate (bastion of feminism) and dig through their comments section on articles on HRC, you’ll find that there’s a BIG portion of the the radical left that absolutely hates this woman. These are the ‘all rape victims should be believed, even if there is no evidence’ crowd.

Even on articles that glow for Hillary, the comments are downright nasty.

Lately, I’m seeing their nightmare scenario. HRC vs Trump. Some are saying that they’ll hold their nose for HRC, others are vowing to stay home.

We know how well, “hold your nose” works. Look at Romney. The problem wasn’t that so many reelected Obama. The problem was that the Republican base couldn’t be bothered to get out of bed for the man.

HRC vs Trump, I predict low leftist turn-out and a Trump win.

The GOPe, their punditry and all of TRUMP’s weeny competition would be wise to STHU right now and let the voters speak.

NOT ONE VOTE has actually been cast, so all this dirty dealing and handwringing is doing nothing but pouring salt on open wounds and solidifying Trump’s support while proving for all to see that the GOPe truly *is* THE STUPID PARTY!

TRUMP hasn’t threatened to run 3rd Party! He has been plagued with questions about it because of all the bashing he’s been taking.

FGS, Linda Graham even said the best thing Donald Trump could do to “Make America Great Again” would be to “DROP OUT OF THE RACE!”

Yeah, right, Linda @ 1 percent in his home state of South Carolina and Donald Trump @ 38% in South Carolina!!!

SHEEESH.

Holy Moly. Glad I am out of the bond and stock market. Bought a fixed annuity. Too much volatility in the economy. I sleep better now.

A former Romney aide stated, "He probably won't endorse right away. But I could see him feeling a moral obligation to do so if Trump still is around."

My, they take themselves seriously.

We need a second party in America.

IMO, that is the first step.

Wise? Not so much.

They make coin on being all knowing. They are lost; according to their world view, Trump should not be in front.

No! Trump will CHANGE the republican party, not destroy it.

What Trump is destroying is the politically correct, afraid of media, in the pockets of their rich donors, the GOPe.

And although Cruz is the best from the establishment candidates, he is also controlled by his rich donors.
1. 500% increse in H1-B visa’s to foreign workers
2. Expanding immigration
3. Facilitate passing of Obamatrade
Those are 3 huge red lights flashing for Cruz.

lol. The only way Romney could hurt Trump is if he decides to endorse Trump. ANYBODY Romney endorses is going to take a hit. I DARE Romney to come out and endorse somebody.

Or he will sweep the primaries and the GOPe will go third party.

Which IMHO would end the two party system as we know it. Like Trump or not, if the GOPe sends a signal that it is ok to break away if YOUR candidate doesn't get nominated, they go against everything they shoved at us when they nominated Romney and McCain. Republicans from all different walks of life and subgroups would get the green light from the establishment to break away whenever they are not satisfied with the choice.

If the GOPe does break away, then I believe Trump really will be the apocalypse of the Republican party.
