As I've stated in previous posts I see the Trump campaign as a necessary good. The longer he's in this the better as it embarrasses the GOP by showing what it really stands for.
"Again, as we noted a few days ago the modern GOP is built on a kind of tension. There are public utterances and private comparisons."
"Usually, skillful GOP politicians know how this dance works. Certain things are not fit for public consumption. You know, you don't say that Mexicans are all subhuman vermin who smell funny, you say you believe very strongly in immigration reform and want to vote for it as soon as the border is secure."
"In truth the 2 comments amount to the same thing. However, the latter way is the way you put it in mixed company-ie, in front of the mainstream public. What's happened with Trump is that the lines between public utterance and private confession have blurred. "
"However, why is this happening? The modern GOP is based on having the intelligence and the discipline to know what is meant for public consumption and what is meant for private. I think what's happened is the Tea Party base is incredibly frustrated by the defeats in the SJC, Obama's executive actions, etc."

So Trump is the ultimate Trump card for liberals:
"In 2012 liberals were able to coalesce behind demanding Mitt Romney show us his tax returns. His lack of responsiveness was a boon as it made you wonder what he was hiding that made this slow burn preferable. "
"Then there was the 47% video. This time we have ultimate Trump card in The Donald. All one has to say to the GOP now are the 2 words Donald Trump. He is not out of the party's mainstream in what he says-just in how he says it."
Bearing this in mind there are new numbers that I would love to believe.
"A poll released on Monday showed that real estate mogul Donald Trump had skyrocketed to a commanding lead nationally in the Republican presidential field prior to his criticism of Sen. John McCain's (R-AZ) military career."
"The latest Washington Post/ABC News poll found that Trump topped the crowded Republican field with 24 percent support among Republicans and Republican-leaning independents."
"While those numbers were the best of all Republican candidates, the poll showed support for him may have dropped following his disparaging comments about McCain's time as a prisoner of war. McCain, a Navy veteran and longtime Republican senator, was a POW in Vietnam for five years."
"Most of the telephone interviews took place before Trump's comments were reported on Saturday, but according to the Washington Post, the decline in support was statistically significant. It's unclear how much his criticism of McCain will negatively affect the Trump campaign."
"The poll showed Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker had 13 percent support, following by Jeb Bush at 12 percent. The nearly dozen other candidates polled in the single digits."

So what's left hanging is whether his McCain comments hurt him. They claim that his comments may have hurt him-but many in the base are defending him starting with Rush Limbaugh

So I'm hoping that Trumps momentum isn't going to be hurt-come one Righties, don't let the liberal media tell you what to think!
