Polling shows Trump to be dominant in New Hampshire, the first primary state of the nation. He's led every poll there since September, almost always by double digits and sometimes doubling or even tripling the support of his nearest rival. He edges Ben Carson in Iowa half a percentage point, according to the RealClearPolitics average of polls taken there in the last month--statistically insignificant, but evidence that a Trump victory in the nation's first caucus can't be ruled out--and could likely be followed by a blowout victory in New Hampshire.
"Trump's got an organization in place," Tyler DeHaan, the chairman of Iowa's Dallas County Republican Party, told the Baltimore Post-Examiner. But he warned that the situation in Iowa is extremely fluid. "If there's one thing I'm going to predict, it's that there's a going to be a lot of volatility between now and caucus night."
And after that? A new CNN/ORC poll shows Trump running away in both South Carolina's primary and Nevada's caucuses, with Trump doubling Carson's support in South Carolina and leading Carson by 16 points in Nevada while all other candidates poll in the single digits.
The South Carolina primary and Nevada caucuses will be held within three days of each other, so a candidate winning both of them could have real momentum going into Florida, which holds its winner-take-all primary on March 15.
But Trump may not need much momentum from a string of early state wins to prevail in Florida. According to a new Florida Atlantic University poll, Trump is strengthening in Florida, with 36 percent of GOP voters backing him thus far. To put that in perspective, Trump has more support there than both of Florida's favorite son candidates, Governor Jeb Bush and Senator Marco Rubio, combined.

Not a troll. Been here longer than most.
But I am an objective realist and very cautious about getting caught up in an emotional group energy movement no matter which direction the wind is going. We are headed into some real tough times no matter who becomes president. All you need to do is back up, study history and look at the bigger picture of USA and world events. Yes, history does repeat itself.
Bush and his backers would love to have seen Trump eliminated early. Now it’s too late.
Funny, I checked both our join FR dates. You joined May 10, 2001 and I joined July 2001. You beat me by two months!!!
I was cautious and followed the site a long time before joining. Love it here (Most of the time.) Lot of great people on FR.
“Bush and his backers”
The problem is that the true puppeteers make the decisions, not the american people. Why do you think Hillary got screwed at the Bilderberg meeting in Chantilly VA during the 2008 Democratic primary? Note: The members attending the meeting were also puppets.
Remember the headlines: “Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton attend Bilderberg meeting in Chantilly, VA; reporters kidnapped.....”
You claim to be an “objective realist”? ROTFLMAO!
Your emotional response is indicative of your judgmental opinions to which you are attached rather than having the ability to utilize your logical intellectual evaluative skills.
I agree and have said for a long time that Sarah should be Secretary of Energy; and, that they should merge the EPA into it and she should run both, getting rid of a lot of dead weight and tree huggers.
Should I be forced into a UN approved, “mandatory re-education program” to correct my opinions?
Will you send the police to pick me up at my home or my job?
Under what specific criminal accusation, will I be forcibly detained?
On the money and well stated.
