My biggest worry is and has been that trump would go third party. My friends here at a weekly political luncheon Friday brought me in off the ledge after Trump raised his had as the only one who might not support the party's choice. They reminded me that this is probably more of a ploy being used by Trump the keep the RNC in line. I sincerely hope they are right.

At least he was honest. I guarantee you there were candidates up there who won't support the eventual nominee (and most of them wouldn't support Trump), but none of them raised their hands.

Change the question ever so slightly, ask "How many of would support Trump as the GOP nominee against the Democratic nominee?" Why put Trump directly on the spot, unless the point is to "get Trump"?

Obviously, honesty is no way to keep the RNC in line. The efforts to marginalize Trump haven't even started in earnest, yet.

I agree with you 100%. He better not go 3rd party...

However, that said, I will not vote for Crispy, JED, Putz-Taki, Kase-Itch, Linda Grahamnesty or Saintorum. If any of them are the Republican nominee, and Trump runs Third Party, then I will vote for Trump, but I think Hillary or Biden or whoever is the democrat will win.

The rest have my support in the following order:

Cruz
Walker
Trump
Carson
Jindal
Gilmore
Fiorina
Rubio
Paul
Perry

Did I leave anyone out? What a lineup! Beyond ridiculous; some of them need to drop out soon.

It's also a scare tactic being used by the anti-trump people. Does is really make sense to keep bringing up third party when Trump has a substantial lead in the race for the Republican nomination.
