Here's my pet theory.

Yellow Dog Democrats which deserted the Democratic party in droves after the 1968 commie takeover of the Democratic convention only vote when there is a “strong” alternative on the ballot. They came out for Nixon, and Reagan and gave them vote massive landslides. They seem to be attracted to strong personalities with strong opinions, even if they don't agree with all of them.

I think this is where Trump is getting a lot of his support and if true it spells doom for the others in the primary and for any Democrat in the general, because polls wont accurately reflect how strong Trump is, if he is attracting voting who don't usually vote and/or are not even registered to vote.

I agree. I don’t know if Trump will foul up his lead, but he’s bulletproof against the media, which is wild. The thing I’m drooling over is Hillary becoming the candidate and then getting nailed before the general election - think of the down-ticket destruction! The other thing that I hope Trump does is directly challenge the GOPe and put them on notice that he will change things about them if elected. Jeb’s weakness simply proves that the establishment is in a downward spiral.
