      Bush has not dropped out, but he is cutting staff salaries. Definitely not a good sign.

        Yeah, suppose he's conserving money to see how the numbers trend. They haven't been very favorable for him.
        It's almost as if all his overconfident, absolutist assertions were spoonfed to him by a trusted website or subreddit. Sheeple

          I find it hard to believe that 41 and 43 would let Jeb! just wimp out, especially this far in advance. They have access to lots of cash...

          The fact that two non-politicians lead the GOP polls, despite having no clear difference from the others on the issues, sends a pretty clear message. Seems like someone should be able to figure out how to work around that. Instead, they just keep dropping out.

            Oh my god, Kasich has the most Midwestern face I've ever seen on a politician.

                    These debates are not debates at all. Candidates should be penalized for going off topic.

                    Not sure what that penalty should be. I was going to suggest loss of microphone time or camera time, but that would actually help some of these idiots.

                        I'm convinced Rubio will win the nomination. Trump won't because everyone who isn't Trump will conspire not to let him win. Short of him snagging an absolute majority of delegates (difficult, since most states aren't winner takes all), all of the other delegates at the convention will coalesce around someone else, probably Marco Rubio since he's the only establishment candidate who will be left by then. I'll leave open the possibility of Cruz winning, but not Trump.

                          I see Kasich has hit double digits.

                          But yeah, looks like the big money is moving toward Rubio.

                              Trump is anti-establishment.

                              The more the establishment is seen to be conspiring to get rid of him, the more chance he has of winning.
