No, there won't. No candidate in recent history has led in ALL the state polls by ALL pollsters (save the only WI poll---Walker---one OH poll---Kasich---and a single IA poll---Walker early on, since replaced by Trump, big) AND led in the national poll . . . for so long. It really isn't close. He is the nominee.

Right now, he would wrap up the delegates by April. He will win NH, IA, NV caucus, SC, NC, GA, FL, TX, AZ, MO, AL, and OR. He leads most of these by double-digits.

He has more money than any GOP candidate in history, and is only getting more by the day. He spends virtually nothing. His "war chest" is four or five times that of Hillary Clinton (who will be indicted or under such a legal cloud she can't win).

Trump has no need or reason to go third party, even if, as expected, the GOPe abandon him. He won't need them. It will be a joy to watch.

And the Trump knock on effect would be even greater if the GOP plays fast and loose with the rules.

He has, I sure, already inspired others to emulate David Brat of Virginia to challenge entrenched GOPe incumbents.

The Trumb effect could cascade down the ticket on a national level. This is what they really, really fear. All politics is local when the party central committee behaves as it has done in the past election and follow up GOP betrayal. RNC will become persona non grata on the campaign trail in 2016.

Should be interesting to observe who pops up to challenge them locally.

Fasten your seat belts, it’s going to be one helluva flight.
