Trump will need body armor in the next CNN debate. Slings, arrows and rocks will be thrown by the desperate RINO's.

1) They will try too hard and fumble it
2) They lack real character and moral foundation and they won't believe what their handlers ask them to say
3) They are not good performers and their timing will be off

They ought to just forget about Trump and try to sell people on their own ideas. But they won't. In part, because they don't have their own ideas.

Cruz is the exception. Cruz could damage Trump in a debate. But Cruz is smart enough not to try -- Trump is the best thing the anti-Democrats have at the moment. Smart people won't work against that fact.

The Yahoo yahoos talk like they are afraid of Trump. Maybe there is something to this Trump guy after all. I enjoy watching liberals get wet stains on the front of their dresses and ObamaCare jammies.

In addition to the slings, arrows and rocks thrown at Trump by the left-wing “moderators.”

Given the results of the recent CBS polls in IA, NH, and SC, there are only 3 candidates consistently polling above “No preference”... Trump, Carson, and Cruz... and Carson and Cruz are not attacking Trump. The candidates who are barely above the margin of error (and some are not even that high) are simply trying to get some free press. It’s already a 3-dog race... about 1/3 for Trump, about 1/3 for Carson/Cruz, and about 1/3 for the other 14 candidates, plus “No Preference”. The 14 stragglers should just drop out (although I’m all for Carly staying in if she gets back to hitting Hillary 24-7, like she should).

The GOPe’s will use the bottom feeder candidates to attack Trump.

While Jeb stays above the fray.

“Signs that Republican hopefuls taking sharper aim at Trump”

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

Sounds like a Letterman Top 10.

I’ll start:

Number 10: Trump wants to build a wall. Jeb wants to add a moat!

So far those who go after Diamond Donald Trump get the DDT,
that is a wrestling move that ends with the attacker head banging full force into the mat.

Look at the polling for the guys who are casualties of the DDT, Perry, Paul, Jindal, and those who didn’t like Cruz are doing OK.

Jebba the Hutt tried to out do Trump, even spent funds on anti Trump ads, Jeb is a slow learner and a low energy fool
Rubberio, too, again is for amnesty, and Both former Florida official are losing to Trump a Florida resident in the race for taking the Winner Take all primary in Florida.

Attacking DDT you can get a headache

Carson attacked Trump’s religion, and just apologized today

If Carson attacks Trump his Mr. Nice Guy votes go away

Those that attack their rivals, rather than presenting their own strength are guaranteed losers in most primaries.

This is a solidly proven fact.

"There will probably be more elbows thrown at that debate," Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus said Sunday on CNN's "State of the Union."

Interesting to note that the RNC Chairman is encouraging fratricide within the Republican party. Has he said anything critical of the Democrats?

There is!

* Single payer healthcare

* Tax increases

* Another defeat for the Flat Tax.

* Amnesty for illegals employed by large corporations.

The Cheap Labor Express has already started their propganda campaign. All of their employees in the GOP and The Ministry of Propaganda have been trying to take Trump down to no avail.

If he sticks to his stated policy on the illegal alien inundation, it’s his to lose.
