this election is his to lose

I tend to think it is very early to believe no changes will happen.

Obviously its politics, changes can happen, but I can’t imagine what they will be that is going to change it in a meaningful way. Obviously it could, but Biden in HIllary out won’t change anything.

Watching the Trump speeches there is clearly something going on here, that is unprecidented, at least in modern electoral history. Last election we were going through flavors of the month with folks disgruntled with the GOPe, that’s not happening here, Trump is connecting and he’s connecting with a simple message, and he has the force of will and personality as well that no one else on the GOP side of the isle, or frankly anyone else in the race on either side of the isle has.

Ideologically I love Cruz, but looking at what is going on with the race, I think its clear to see that what Trump is doing is working, and its likely going to keep working. Could he eventually screw up bad enough to undercut his support? Perhaps, but as long as he’s the only guy taking it to the political class and the press for their stupidity I just don’t see anyone breaking out.

Time will tell, but I admit I was dubious of Trump to begin with, but after seeing him at 2 rally speeches now I can see exactly why he is connecting and why his support is broadening and likely will continue to do so.
