Right but Hillary Clinton being equally unpopular with the group assures her of winning?

Freepr please. GW Bush was down 12 points to John Kerry at this point in Fed 2004. Drop this mythical “electability” nonsense and try to make a case FOR you candidate.

This is where Team Cruz loses. They keep arguing AT Trump instead for their candidate.

In a year when when the vast majority of voters indicate a high disgust with “Politics as Usual” running a politics as usual campaign is a losing tactic.

Finally, something to file away with the articles:

Why Donald Trump can’t win the nomination.

Oh, please. “The Donald” is a liberal, and probably nothing more than a stalking horse to throw the general election to Hillary. He’s a fraud, pure and simple.

Nothing more than another east coast elitist telling us rube in Flyover Country how stupid we are and how we need to “sit down, buckle up, hang on and SHUT UP”.

This guy illustrates his limited understanding by comparing Trump to Akin, Murdock, and Angle on the damage caused by gaffes and stupid statements. Yet Trump has had immunity from blow back among the electorate. He also does not make much allowance for crossover voters from the democrat base. He should stick to his favorite subject, writing about Star Wars, and leave politics to those in the real world.

As for the "college educated," It is useful to recall that the 80's intellectualoids had only scorn for Reagan, the "second rate movie actor."

I don’t think any Republican can win. Not because of the “Republican” candidates but because of the American population being Democratic slaves.

“Smart”

This is an important source of democrat support. It gives them a vehicle to feel smarter, better than others. Just vote democrat and you get instant standing to sneer down at the “stupid” republicans.

“he is as unpopular with voters who have graduated from college”

The indoctrinated class. No wonder they want to make
collage free. K-12 is homosexual indoctrination and
collage is for social/fascist indoctrination.
So basically a college degree means you are a licensed
socialist and you are allowed to prosper while the true
backbone of this country gets screwed and forced to
compete with disease ridden illegal immigrant labor at
the point of a gun.

Actually I think this article is bunk and Varad Mehta, whatever he is, is full of it.,

I’m a college graduate, and I’d vote for Trump over any Democrat and a good number of Republicans.

So, if college educated voters vote for Hillary, that's because?

1) She is a self-made women who didn't ride the coattails of a man who treated other women like dirt while cheating on her?

2) She didn't defend him and attack those other women?

3) She is kind and caring about others, as attested to by her treatment of the Secret Service, her nefarious firing of the White House travel office director, her comments about how she can't worry about all undercapitalized businesses, her ‘what difference does it make’ comment to Congress while speaking about an American Ambassador and brave men trying to protect him who died on her watch, her smiling demeanor testifying about the above???

4) She never lies, (I was named after Sir Edmund Hillary; I landed in Bosnia in the middle of gunfire; I just found the Rose Law firm records sitting on a table in the White House; None of the requests for extra security from Benghazi ever reached me; I didn't use my personal server for official business or confidential information; Bill was ministering to youth; I guess I just have a knack for commodities trading; we're not wealthy and we were broke when we left the White House; etc. etc.)??

The list goes on and on. If this assertion about college educated voters is true (and I don't think it is the whole story) what does this say about the state of higher education in the US?

Trump has it in the bag, and will be our next President.

Do not count your chickens before the hen is laid.

Trump simply says anything he feels he needs to say at the time in order to win naive people over. He’s been all over the map on his positions. He actually supported partial birth abortion up until he was age SIXTY. He supported communist Bill De Blasio for major of New York. He praised communist Obama during his global apology tour. He, at least into his mid-fifties, supported gays in the military. He thinks KGB/FSB Putin is a guy to be admired and trusted (this despite Russia’s obvious re-emergent expansionist agenda). On and on. How can any legit conservative/patriot trust him.

Indians ( dot not feather ) are very race conscious. The lighter the skin the higher the caste.

Many of the college educated are indoctrinated. They like Bernie and Obama.

I’m college and I will vote for Trump if Cruz does not get the nomination.

Obviously this is yet another idiot who is looking to stop Trump and would rather have Clinton or Sanders.

Ditto, I’m a college grad with a masters and I am a Trump supporter. Hide and watch all of you Demonrats and lost, turncoat Republicans. It’s time for the pendulum to swing and boy is it going to swing. ROTFALMAO!

“Just vote democrat and you get instant standing to sneer down at the “stupid” republicans.”

You got that right. It usually last right up to the time they
get their ass kicked. After that they cower under the rock
of socialism and only come out to stab you in the back wile your
not looking. These we call “Moderates”.
