PS. I've been rotating watching MSNBC, CNN, and Fox today. All three networks are hammering Trump relentlessly with negative stories, pundits, politicians. Will the media matter or influence voters today on Super Tuesday?
Media will not influence nor matter to Trump voters. Possible to make a difference on last minute voters, but who knows.

The media influence will matter in the general election and Trump will be in for a blood bath should be garner the GOP nomination.

I'm not so sure about that. The pundits have been wrong so far regarding Trump and the negative press has seemed to inflate Trump's popularity not diminish it.

What should be interesting is seeing the Trump and Hillary PACs go for the other's throat. There is lots of ammo on both sides and it will be a nasty, but very entertaining, campaign. I'm loving it!

No, we won't. He's not my guy, but a wee part of me is a bit curious about what he would do, so if he is the candidate, which I still don't think he will be, I'll vote for him.

Seriously you'd think these big three 24 hr news networks (FOX, CNN, MSNBC) should be for Trump because he creates interest and is constantly creating news. He's controversial, somewhat unbalanced, and a quote-machine. These news networks would be better off in viewership with him versus any of the other candidates. And we all know that viewership is what drives these networks.

You are probably quoting the same people who said he wouldn't run....wait, then said he is a non factor....no really, he will dry up by the Summer. No? Well he will be done by Labor Day. Wrong again? Well no way he lasts thru the Holidays....Damn, that isn't right....but wait, he will NEVER win a state primary

Keep the predictions coming, he just keeps getting stronger and stronger

I can understand that. I read that 20,000 democrats switched parties in MA and it is believed that they have hitched on to the Trump bandwagon.

Quote:
Mass. Secretary of State William Glavin attributed the switches to the "Trump phenomenon." The billionaire candidate has a significant lead over fellow top contenders Marco Rubio and Ted Cruz in recent state polls.

"The tenor of the Republican campaign has been completely different from what we've seen in prior Republican presidential campaigns," Galvin said. "You have to look no farther than the viewership for some of the televised debates.
