Two months before the Iowa caucuses, Donald Trump finds himself in a familiar position: on top in the race for the 2016 Republican presidential nomination.
According to a Quinnipiac national survey released Wednesday, Trump leads Florida Sen. Marco Rubio by 10 points, with the billionaire real estate mogul receiving 27 percent support among GOP voters. Texas Sen. Ted Cruz and retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson are tied for third at 16 percent, followed by former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush (5 percent), who is a distant fourth. No other candidate in the Republican field registered more than 3 percent support in the poll.
Trump’s double-digit lead combined with the inability of other GOP candidates like Bush to break through is causing panic among Republican operatives who expected the former “Celebrity Apprentice†star to stumble following his controversial comments about, well, virtually everyone.

I think many are. :)
The GOPe DOES NOT WANT THE PRESIDENCY. The gopes are determined to nominate a prestigious gope to reward him for his gopiness and to recognize his turn in line. The GOPe nominee doesn’t want the hassle of being President though he craves the recognition of the Nomination. The gopes have their relationship with the Ruling Class Democrat Party and do not want it to be disturbed. The Nomination is a reward, not a campaign for office.
For anyone who thinks the Republican Party has any independent existence, ask the question- why do all of the gopes support the Amnesty that must guarantee a permanent Total Democrat State?
Waaaay too much sense there. You will need to proceed to the nearest reeducation camp, or cnn tv set.
I believe Trump's mission, given to him by the Clintons, is to so fracture the Republican side that they can not and will not come up with a viable and desirable candidate.
It's working very well.
Oh boy ‘tin hat’ warning!!!
Donald Trump, Infowarrior. LOL, gotta love it. Now even some far right heads will explode along with the libs.
How in tarnation could Trump stop them for running whomever they please? The lack of a great Republican candidate besides Trump is Trump's fault?
So you’re saying Trump, who has been his own man and has called his own shots for his entire adult life, is meekly surrendering his will to serve another politician, namely clinton?
I believe Trump’s mission is to win the GOP nomination, then the election and to be president.
I firmly believe that.
Yes! Isn’t it wonderful! The Donald is going to flush out all of the posers whether on the “right” or the “left” of the Uniparty! :-)
Only when conservatives get a clue
The amusing part is that Cruz is the only one who can stop Trump. Someone the GOPe hates even more. Schadenfreud
Sorry, arthurus, my reply was intended for stboz’s post 46.
A good chance you will be correct.

Was Trump in there? He must have slipped between the letters I typed. I went back and looked and didn’t see him.
"At this point: Only Trump can beat Trump."
Who is this genius shark of one of the great lakes?
