Re: Trump 2016
IMO, if Jeb Bush was ahead right now in the polls no one would be saying that polls right now don't matter.
I'm still not convinced that donald trump can win the nomination. But he's certainly making a strong case for himself with those current numbers.
However, the true test will be to check the numbers when candidates start dropping out. Who will their supporters choose. That's hard to tell.

I don't know one single person who would vote for Jeb. He is only up because the big money is backing him. That's a sure sign he is the worse candidate possible.

That's the best ad I've seen in a long time! Hilarious, but on point.

Re: Trump 2016
Trump is a diversion for the media. Don't take him seriously. He'll purposefully implode just before the Primary. This prevents the Republican contenders from weakening themselves in front of the American people as the result of months of campaigning against one another. It's a political strategy. And so far it is working.
People are talking more about "Trump" than the weaknesses of the other candidates.

You must not be reading what I am reading. Trump's candidacy is bringing out the weaknesses in the other candidates. Whether he wins the primary or not, nothing is being covered up. Even Jeb is looking weak except to the Left and GOP Establishment who loves Amnesty.

Re: Trump 2016
I don't see how this could legally be enforced, but the establishment in Virginia and North Carolina are adopting a new strategy to try and make it almost impossible for Trump to participate in their primaries.
Party leaders in Virginia and North Carolina told Politico.com that they are considering a push to require candidates entering their respective Republican primaries to pledge their support for the eventual nominee and not run a third-party candidacy — a pledge Trump, the current frontrunner, would not make when asked to during the Fox News debate earlier this month in Cleveland.
Republican party officials in North Carolina announced a similar proposal, and told Politico they already are in talks with lawyers to draft language for a provision that asks each candidate to support the GOP nominee.
The establishment is scared to death that this "passing fad" of Trump hasn't passed yet. Again, I don't see how they could legally enforce something like this.

"The ultimate decision, he said, would be made by the 84 members who make up the state party’s central committee, which is slated to meet on Sept. 19. The requirements must be submitted to the Republican National Committee by Oct. 1."

Re: Trump 2016
Guess his ceasefire with Megyn Kelly is over.
Tweet: "I liked the Kelly File much better without MegynKelly. Perhaps she should take another eleven day unscheduled vacation!"
I didn't realize she took an unscheduled vacation. Maybe Ailes had her do so to try and let the flames die down a bit.
