That wasn’t my point, the point is the blitz against Trump here is unlike anything I’ve ever seen. If you were here you’d know what I’m talking about, AM talk radio here is hammering him, and a lot of folks trust these yokel local talk show hosts

-- the point is the blitz against Trump here is unlike anything I've ever seen. If you were here you'd know what I'm talking about, AM talk radio here is hammering him, and a lot of folks trust these yokel local talk show hosts --

Trump faced similar in Florida, Ohio, Wisconsin and Texas. Now, I know that Trump lost three out of those four. My point is that "ad blitz" and "local radio" saturation is not a sign of voter sentiment, it is a sign of establishment sentiment; and that while it's unlike what you've seen, it is not unlike what has transpired in this primary season.

Add to that mix the fact that Trump supporters are exceptionally loyal and motivated. If Limbaugh can't peel them off, despite his best efforts, is yet another data point. If anything, the non-stop anti-Trump noise will motivate more Trump supporters than Cruz and Kasich supporters.

Add also, Cruz's deal with Kasich and naming Fiorina, both moves having more downside than upside at the polls. All Cruz got out of naming Fiorina was pushing the Trump landslide away from above-the-fold news.

Understood the first time you posted the idea. But do try to calm down a bit before posting again.

Trump has had tens upon tens of thousands of negative ads hit him. And he has prevailed.

You are right that Pence is an establishment guy. But I don’t think Pence is wildly popular in that state. Would you say Bobby Knight carries more weight than Mike Pence?

As for local yocal radio hosts, they are usually successful with hot button talking points to gen up excitement for call-ins but their analysis is shallow and unsubstantial. Even Limbaugh has been losing a lot of listeners because of his bias for Cruz. The local ones can’t do much better.

People listen to local hosts and nod their heads on issues such as immigration, jobs and so on but that is all in Trump’s platform. The local hosts can only resort to making distinctions with personal attacks on Trump which usually don’t stick. Many people are still getting national media news where Trump shines in interviews and which have recently turned against Cruz.

Keep in mind where you are and what you see may not be the views of others in general in Indiana. Many people are aware that Cruz cannot win and they are not supporting deceitful 2nd and 3rd ballot shenanigans.

I live in Florida. Prior to our primary the only thing you heard on the TV, radio were antiTrump ads. It was truly disgusting. But it seems they wasted their money because Trump won in a landslide. Mercifully, the ad blitz ceased completely on Wednesday.

The blitz is only making Trump stronger. Many are now on to the the tactics used by the government/MSM complex and more wake up to it every day.

The attacks were the same here in FL and he won 66 of the 67 counties.

Make your own decision. No need to to be a sheep or even be concerned about what everyone else is saying or doing. You have control over your vote and that’s it.

I don’t even watch or listen to the news anymore. I’m tired of listening to their drama.
