No, not really. I like Kasich quite a bit. Trump is full of shit. I like Carson.

Just making the point that I would have thought Trump an impossibility but now not so much.

Trump will get the nomination.

It's as good as over.

He has established himself as the Alpha Male and asserted his dominance over the rest of the field.

He can do anything he wants as long as he maintains his aggressiveness.

The Republican nomination is now being determined by primordial instincts and natural laws that date back well before the dawn of civilization.

Can't say I blame you on Trump. His xenophobic and misogynistic crap has pretty much shot any Republican's chance this time out.

Kasich is a nasty piece of work, imo. A wolf in sheep's clothing as it were.

Addl, Carson is profoundly misinformed on a number of social issues.

I would think he has better grasp of those social issues than anybody else running.

It is early yet, plenty of time for people to get tired of him unless he can add some substance to the entertainment.

Sort of the antithesis to Obama is all that is driving it. He will likely crash and burn when the new wears off.

I wonder if he realizes that there are three branches of government and that Congress makes the laws. He seems to be over simplifying believing that the Presidency is all about making deals, and if he does he will come up short every time.
