Consider the source. ALSO, there is essentially a three man race here and each group has people who claim they never would vote for any of the other two candidates. Once the smoke clears and the chips are down, hopefully conservative Republicans don’t pull the “purity test” and shoot themselves in the foot like they did in 2008 and 2012. I will vote for an support any of the GOP candidates currently running to keep Hillary, Sanders, Biden, Warren or any other Democrat freak away from the White House.

That’s all well and good, but the election will be won in the Electoral college; there are ten states that have not voted the same since the 2000 election, and the totals without those states are Dem 242, Pub 179...of those ten states, Dems need win only NH, NM, NV, all highly probable wins, to get to 257, then VA wins it for them...or a combo of IA and CO...all with the Pubs winning FL and OH
Which of those states is Trump likely to deliver in the general...? He needs VA like a baby needs its mother...
