That leaves Rubio and Cruz. Neither one of them can beat Clinton, or Trump for that matter. Yes, Cruz captured Iowa, but he is too scary for moderate Republicans and independents. And the GOP "establishment" can hope that with Jeb gone, Rubio will scoop up enough non-Trump votes to cruise to a victory, but that's not happening either. After Cruz and Trump grab their share of the undecided, there won't be enough left to give Rubio the bump he needs to pass Trump.
Last summer, I gave you five reasons why so many Americans loved Trump and why he would go the distance. Notice, four of the five points cemented his path to the Republican nomination. At the time, the seasoned political commentators and pundits just rolled their eyes at me. Now they're predicting a win.
1. He's real.
2. He doesn't care what you think.
3. Many Americans hate Washington.
4. It's early (null).
5. You want to see him debate.

The Republican Establishment brought this on themselves.
Because CNN and MSNBC are the new voices of ‘conservatism’...meh.
Polls on electability this far out are meaningless once shots start being fired between Trump and Clinton.
I’ll let Mel Robbins have the final word; really he says it far better than I ever could:
So what is the GOP waiting for? In the past six GOP primaries without an incumbent, with the exception of Newt Gingrich in 2012, every South Carolina winner since 1980 went on to become the eventual Republican nominee.
“For all Trump haters, that’s not good news.
If you are still crossing your fingers hoping for a Rubio surge, I advise you, don’t waste your time. The race is over. It’s time for the GOP establishment to decide if it wants to continue the identity crisis or elect a President.
The Republican nominee is Donald Trump.”
Robotrubio giving up his senate seat and cant win. Lol. I guess he will become a lobbyist for illegals
Very good read.
Watch very soon for the Media to gleefully embrace and proclaim the upcoming death match of the ages...Trump vs Hillary!
I agree, that’s why I changed my tag line.
It’s virtually over. It will be absolutely over when Trump takes a majority of the delegates at the SEC primary on 1 March with a close 2nd or a win in Texas. On 12 & 15 March he’ll win Rubio’s Florida and Kasich’s Ohio.
Then it is definitely over over over. Trump will blow them out in the Northeast States, the great lakes states, and the Northwest states.
After SEC there is no bastion of strength left for Cruz, and after Florida what really does Rubio have?
Congrats to Trump!
If one lets a CNN hack have the final word, then that’s letting the liberals dictate the narrative once more.
Oh, yeah....CNN
They already know that.
I heard that Trump got more votes last night than all the votes cast in either the 2012 or 2008 Republican primaries...the GOP establishment cannot stop that kind of wave, nor should they.
It is their last branch to cling to. The poll is likely phony and you only need 25% of the population who votes Repub. He will win in a landslide.
Pray America wins
Oh noes!
Are we done with the “ceiling” meme?
