I think the families who lost there loved ones would disagree.

Is this the part where you tell us that we should all support Rubio instead of Trump because only Rubio can beat Hillary?

Clinton wouldn't win NC anyway. If Obama barely won here with historic black turnout in 2008 and lost in 2012, then she doesn't stand a chance.

People are seriously underestimating Trump. He's likely to finish off the rest of the GOP field in the next several weeks and I can see him having a great shot at beating Clinton in the general election. A lot of people find what he says to be outrageous but at the same time he's tapping in to a large segment of Americans who agree with what he says. He's proven to be a master at persuasion and I'm impressed by the genius that he's displayed so far.

Clinton isn't really the strong candidate that Obama was either. There are many who voted for him that don't trust her. She's still "establishment" and politics as usual while Trump has that outsider angle going for him.

Remember Trump's nonsensical answer to the nuclear triad question? Extrapolate that over two hours and you have Trump vs Hillary in a debate. Trumpettes will swear he won "hands down" while the rest of the country votes for Clinton. At the end of the day, we like our candidates to have at least a +4th grade level vocabulary.

Given his low favorability with minorities, Trump would need to better Romney's strong showing with non-Hispanic Whites to have a shot at winning. Given his low favorability with women voters, I doubt Trump manages even that.

Noted that incompetence that leads to the death of American's is not an important issue.

Debate and election over.
That's funny, because that is exactly how the 2012 election was going to go to Romney. . . . according to all the conservative pundits. Remember?

Not everybody wants an outsider. This is more common on the GOP side due to the anti-government idealogy that the GOP/Fox News pushed over the past 8 years. Many voters want someone with political experience.
