PPP: GOP voters just don't want Jeb! Trump beats him almost 2-1 head to head

Trump also beats most of the other candidates--the only one who beats Trump head to head is Ben Carson.

Trump: 59
Bush: 34

Trump: 53
Walker: 39

Trump: 50
Rubio: 42

Trump: 48
Fiorina: 41

Trump: 43
Carson: 49

Yeah, I think it is very possible that Trump could be the GOP nominee--probably with Carson or Fiorina as his running mate.

They seem unable to admit that Trump might go the distance. Over and over they would stress that this was just a phase and, in the end, one of the "mainstream" candidates would win the nomination. Ha! Jebbie's toast.

will Bu$h be one of the first group of republican candidates to drop out? I doubt it, but the fact that it's possible is jaw dropping.
