"The big unknown is what happens when the marginal candidates start dropping out. Where will their supporters go?"

Response: "Maybe to a candidate that hasn't been trashing their guy? "

Trump will not be getting their support, negativity has consequences. In today's Iowa poll, in head-to-heads with Hillary, the worst-performing Republican is ……Donald Trump.

Reagan had it right. He didn't trash his opponents in the primaries and was able to gain their followers support. Trump is burning bridges.

Don't be so sure. First, this is the SAME analysis done over a month ago (he even refers to the previous poll) where he said then, "Yeah Trump is leading but it won't last."

I don't know about you, but I used to know guys in school where ever girl would tell me what a jerk he was and how she hated him, right up to the point she went out with him.

I think there is a lot of waffling on the "undercard" by people who don't want to be so proletarian as to be seen supporting Trump, but you can bet they will vote for him, especially against Sanders or Hillary.
