The plan is after SC only Rubio will be left as a serious candidate to go against Trump. Expect an all-out offensive by the GOPe/”Conservative Media”/Leftist Media(Axis of Evil) against Trump to give Rubio a chance to stop Trump in March.

The battle has just begun.

Functionally, assuming the establishment voting bloc coalesces by then, yes, its no more than a 3 man functional race by then, with reality being a 2 man race with a 3rd just tagging along. Most likely at this point to be that third wheel I would guess to be Cruz.

IF the establishment bloc still hasn’t coalesced by the, The path for anyone but Trump to win becomes insanely narrow indeed.

America seems ready for an orange son of a billionaire president. Orange people have suffered long enough. Sons of billionaire’s have been denied upward mobility for too long. Their time has come.

"On June 16th, when we started this journey, there were 17 candidates.
I was told by everybody, 'Do not go to Iowa. You could never finish even in the
top ten.' And I said, 'But I have friends in Iowa. I know a lot of people in Iowa.
I think they'll really like me. Let's give it a shot.' They said, 'Don't do
it.' I said, 'I have to do it.' And, we finished second,
and I want to tell you something,

I'm just honored, I'm really honored."

Donald Trump
Iowa 2/1/16

Trump’s a liberal. He has donated to numerous democrats. He supports planned parenthood. He repeated the code pink tripe about Bush lying, and even went so far as to insinuate that Bush caused 9/11 to happen. He has supported partial birth abortion.

He says many of the right words, but his past actions say otherwise.

He is no conservative.
I won’t vote for him.

I don’t think we’ll know for awhile. As the other candidates drop out someone will get all those votes.

If you want the GOPe/”Conservative Media” spin right out of the horse’s mouth just tune in to FNC’s “The Five.” GOPe lackey Dana PeRino is slobbering all over the Nikki Haley endorsement of Rubio to go along with Gowdy’s and Scott’s.

“Three powerful SC politicians with enormous popular approval will add strength to Rubio’s campaign.” says PeRino.

This means Bush is toast, that Cruz is on his way out, and the all-out offensive against Trump begins in earnest. Hold on to your hat.

It won’t be long before Mega Church preachers come out against Trump.

And the GOP will try to pull a “Mississippi” if possible.

No one will go into the convention with enough votes for the nomination. That is where the decision will be made.
