    Am now convinced the only way to stop Trump is for everyone else to coalesce around 1 alternative by early March. This seems very unlikely.

        @mattklewis Bush, Kasich and Carson must get out by Super Tuesday to clear a path for Rubio to challenge Trump. Only way I see Trump losing.

        @LeeCEldridge @mattklewis and yet all 3 are largely immune from party pressure to get out

        @LL3D @mattklewis We'll see. Ben looks defeated. Jeb looks desperate. I think they get out soon. Kasich could be a wildcard and stay in.

        @LL3D @mattklewis Though you'd have to think Kasich could position himself as VP pick for Rubio. Maybe a deal gets done.

        @mattklewis @elianayjohnson Jeb can really make a difference if he drops out after SC and puts resources behind Rubio. Must stop Trump soon!

        @mattklewis @McCormackJohn With 2 alternatives to Trump the vote is still split and the jerk can still have a plurality -and we're screwed

        @DonderolibtR 2nd choice numbers show that Dump wld pick up some Carson & Cruz supporters. Very few Bush, Kasich, or Rubio supporters.

        You act like there is an alternative that all these voters would go to. @mattklewis @allahpundit 50% of Cruz voters would go to Trump.
