Most analysts still insist that Trump’s lead in the Republican field will pass as the race gets more serious. But he has undoubtedly transformed the nature of the election debate.
Stephen Colbert, host of the US’s Late Show, a mix of chat and satire, the other night warned his audience that Donald Trump might actually win the presidency. He got them to intone together as practice: “President Trump, President Trump . . . â€
He’s not alone. Conservative and liberal columnists such as Ann Coulter and Leslie Savan have argued recently that, in the wake of Paris, Trump’s brand of virulent Islamophobia is infectious and catching on and could even beat Hillary Clinton.
“It’s easy to laugh at GOPers in denial,†Savan writes, “but progressives who pooh-pooh Trump’s chances of beating Hillary may be whistling past the graveyard of American democracy.â€(continued)

Probably show up about this time next year.
The Kenyan put an end to Mainstream Era. It’s all extremist and radical now or you won’t be elected!
why cant the GOPe just get it over with and draft obama?

Lindsey Graham!
LG’s ratings is so low my booger has bigger approval ratings. Mainstream candidate, not lamestream..
Lindsey Graham. Honestly, he is running.
You know, if we had a dollar for every time this came out, we would be millionaires by now....
Trump is the only one that can take Trump out, not the government controlled media, not the talking heads, not the GOPe, not the RINOs, not the C of C....they didn’t make Trump, Trump made Trump....deal with it...
He’s not ‘owned’ by anyone but AMERICANS that support him, he has no handlers, he doesn’t have a super pac, he is self funded....deal with it....
Stephen Colbert is not a "chat show" it's a no-holds barred leftist screech.
And the author is much more worried about "islamophobia" benefitting people who disagree with him politically, than he is about safety and security of nations.
If I knew Obama was doing everything possible to keep these radical terrorists out of the country, I'd be the very first one applauding him.
Since I know he's doing the OPPOSITE, bringing terror INTO the U.S., I hate him more than I thought I'd ever hate a person.
Trump is a republican.
When Trumps crowds diminish at his public speeches, that will be the indicator, so far, there is NO other candidate drawing such crowds. The election is still a long way off.

Patrick baby, Ted Cruz IS mainstream, and the GOPe had better get used to being the back room boyz.
.
Actually republicans are waiting for the GOPe to stop attacking the best candidate for this election and to start backing America again
.
Is that your mantra?
Oooommmmm!
.
Well, Rove is trying to network Carson and big $ donors
.
Most of the big $ donors bailed on the GOPe when W made his foot-in-mouth commentary on Cruz.
Cruz’ fortunes immediately rose at that point, as W had made it clear who was overcoming his Bro.

Linda is running on the military industrial ticket, and only because McCain is an unrealistic candidate. All republicans would be reasonably supportive of the military, but the military industrial complex just doesn’t have the clout they did in the Bush days. The mil-ind wing just needs to accept that and support a reasonably conservative candidate.
2ndDiv bolded Trump—s lead will pass as the race gets more serious because he agrees with it. Is another stealth hit on Trump by 2ndDiv?
No, I did what the source did.
