Someone jog my memory—In previous Republican primaries, have the losers generated as much excitement as they have so far this time around?
All those polls are before Ted Cruz won Iowa. Ted Cruz will crush Trump in South Carolina.

Trump is polling higher in SC than he was in NH.
Jeb will probably throw everything he has at Cruz in a desperate attempt to finish second.
They are saying that W will campaign in SC and we all know that he hates Cruz.
Good article, everyone interested should read the entire article.
Key word, decisive! Trump 2016
I see some are predicting future results based on past events. I submit that all that is going on today has no equal in recent American history.
A perfect storm is developing across America which includes both the left and the right. Americans are very unhappy with the place our elite leaders (in both parties) have brought us to.
Americans as a whole have determined career politicians have sold them out, and look for someone, anyone, that appears to understand their concerns, and more importantly will act on those concerns if elected.
For those on the left you would think they would support Obama’s replacement, Clinton, but few really trust her, and fewer yet like her. I believe they are supporting Sanders because while a career politician, he has remained independent and proudly claims who he is, a socialist.
For those on the right who for years have been demonized by the left, the media and the elite in their own party they are looking for someone who is not afraid to stand up and give their concerns a voice. They understand Trump is not a white in shining armor, pure in his action or beliefs. He is more like a combat infantryman that you might not want to date your sister, but would like to be in your foxhole when the SHTF.
Well we are living in dangerous times, part of the reason we have gotten here is because our elite leaders (again from both parties) have been too busy shaping our society to meet their Utopian goals and not worried about any other minor problems like employment, or ISIS, or Muslims moving to take over the world.
They are more interested in transforming this nation into the perfect socialist world where minorities rule the majority.
And the full weight of the government is used to force individual to go against their beliefs while allowing our nation to be invaded.
No, this election is not like any other in recent history, Americans are angry, and their first action will be to take it out on the establishment.
I certainly hope that those in power today get the idea that they can “steal” the election and remain in power because I believe this anger is running deep and there is most likely going to be some sort of back lash.
We are indeed living in interesting times
At least that is my opinion
KASICH (4) is in fourth, of all things... for the moment. Carly got the one delegate in IA, Christie and Gilmore continue to get nothing but campaign money. Carson (3) got 2.3 pct in NH but is expected to get back to 8-9 in SC, and maybe a few delegates, but I predict he will drop out after Super Tuesday when the campaign money dries up and he is in fourth, behind 290-220-140-40 (Trump, Cruz, Rubio, Carson)

Cruz will be burning money even faster, a sign of his intentions if he were by chance be elected POTUS?
Cruz, the man who has no regard for the dollar.
Cruz can do it! It only cost America $2 billion in SuperPAC donations.
Cruz thinks the US dollar is the same as the Canadian dollar.
Vote for me, i paid for you!
There’s one big threat. If he gets to the convention with the most delegates but not enough to win on first vote. The party may decide that Hillary would be better than Trump and arrange for someone else to be the nominee. Going against the will of the people will doom that nominee and give Hillary a win but I wouldn’t put it past some of the party “leaders”.
If no lower candidates get out we’ll know that’s the plan. They’ll divide up the states so they aren’t competing against each other in any state. Hope that each of them wins one or two states or at least collects enough delegates to stop Trump from a clear win at the convention.
I guess there is one other threat. He may say something stupid/offensive/crude and we all know that will end his campaign.
Yep, as long as 4 or 5 well known republican competitors remain in the race, Trump will just keep on sailing along to victories. The ONLY way for the GOPe to stop him is to get this down to one competitor, and I don’t see that happening.
