Excerpt

A Quinnipiac University survey released Thursday found Trump with 44 percent support.

Marco Rubio, who represents Florida in the Senate, follows with 28 percent. Rounding out the field are Ted Cruz at 12 percent, John Kasich at 7 percent and Ben Carson at 4 percent.

If these numbers hold true this is the end of the Marco Rubio campaign. Of the 3 remaining GOP front runners he poses the biggest risk for us this fall. Trump and/or Cruz is a much easier opponent for the democrats to defeat in a GE.

1. We are about to have a carnival barker for President. But, as bad as that sounds,

he might be less destructive than Cruz or Rubio.

Folks, the Dems are running a courageous genius. We could elect him and move into the active phase of cleaning up this nasty situation.

2. Trump, a game show host. n/t

3. If we don't look out, we are about to get what we deserve.

To quote my father, "ignorance is a terrible thing".

7. I agree. n/t

5. That's my thought too, Trump is less dangerous/destructive than Cruz or Rubio.

Your last sentence is so true.

4. That's gotta sting Rubio. Trump is much better on trade than Rubio IMO. But we have Bernie who will

wipe the floor with the repig.

6. Wait a second

I am reading from this poll that Trump has a real shot of carrying Florida in the GE which is the cornerstone of any GOP victory. We already know he is going to do well in the rust belt.

Take Romney states:

Put in Florida, Ohio, and Pennsylvania and the election is over.

Which Romney state will Trump lose? North Carolina? If so you still have Iowa and New Hampshire and at least one delegate from Maine and a 269-269 tie. Rhode Island is also in play.

8. The poll is for the GOP primary race.

Not the GE. That is an entirely different matter.
