Trump has got more excitement going then even Obama had at this time in 2006-07.

He is on a roll.

Not saying he will be the nominee but he sure has mastered excitement that we can get America rolling again and has shown that he is a leader who gets things done.

I don't really believe in "change" and "hope" about politics, we're always disappointed, but I could be excited to have a businessman as President, we need somebody understanding economics, to have a booming economy again.

"Change We Can Believe In" Obama versus Trump, do ya really have to guess! Obama's slogan during his campaign, Hope and Change, Yes we Can, His Change We Can Believe In, No We Can't.''

Trump a respected, sucessful, smart, well like businessman, with the smarts, Change I do believe in.

This Country cannot go on like this, ya think!

Your absoluetly correct. Someone who has achieved success as a very sucessful businessman, does understand about economics, he would know what to do to get this economy booming once again, yes i do believe in him, when he speaks about this Country, i see Passion in his eyes, When Obama speaks about this Country, it is as though, he needs to always apologize for something he thinks we have done.

The reason why Trump is skyrocketing is because of an exceedingly weak GOP field. It's funny how the only candidate that currently sparks excitement amongst the birthers and conspiracy theorists in the GOP base is a "business genius" whose only real accomplishments is filing for numerous bankruptcies, and who donated to Rahm Emanuel and Nancy Pelosi. LOL!! Too funny.

the reason trump is skyrocketing is because he isn't afraid of the press and he isn't afraid to address the issues. who else is discussing the trade deficit?

it may be a publicity stunt to boost his show's ratings or he may really run, but he has captured the enthusiasm that obama lost.

like he said, you have to be rich to run against obama and the special interest groups.

as a conservative, i will say that i hope the republicans aren't stupid enough to trot out huckabee again. that is how the party got stuck with mccain last time. if they do trot out that big spending smooth talking arkansas governor they would deserve what they get.

What is going on in the GOP, did they not learn a thing by running two losers on the last elections and these two are the best they can come up with this time around? At this rate the GOP might as well write off the Whitehouse for 2012 and beyond.

No, the reason he is skyrocketing is publicity and newness. This will most likely die off in the next 6 weeks or so.
