re: #102 Decatur Deb

Trump showmanship is making us focus on a sideshow attraction. In the RCP aggregate, he gets only 29.8% of the half of Americans who are GOP. The first sane, realistic candidate, Bush, only gets 7.8 %. This is cause for relief, not panic.

I think Trump may be close to plateauing. However, it seems like Carson’s standing has raised considerably. The fact though is these guys are the only candidates not just with over 20% but with over double digits. But yeah it is cause for some relief when you consider that both would be terrible general election candidates.
