others didn't see coming and now that Trump is there, with his full-frontal bigotry and his big fat mouth, the other candidates can't get traction and have nothing prepared to appeal to voters, at least in percentages necessary to build momentum for primary gold.

Trump eclipsed Jeb, among others, and Jeb is so pathetic that Rubio has now passed him. Jeb's at around 6 or 7 percent nationally, even further down in the pecking order in Iowa. He's not looking too hot in New Hampshire either.

Trump is a xenophobic monster who's sucked all the oxygen out of the GOP warehouse. I hope he is not the nominee because he's a xenophobic monster, but if he prevails in Cleveland, I hope he takes all down-ballot Pukes with him.
