" I don't think that will happen, because the mainstream, donor, country club GOP are the same people that brought us Dole, McCain, and Romney."
Yep...
Pretty disgusting bunch of losers...
Except Romney, I think he had potential. he was just too weak.

The liberal media is hardly even touching Trump right now. They want it to be him on the Republican side. Once he is, they will destroy him; there's plenty of things out there to use as ammo, and he'll give them more every day.
Make no mistake, the liberal media will blindly support the Democratic candidate no matter who it is. They will try to destroy the Republican nominee- regardless if it is Cruz, Walker, Trump, Carson, Bush, etc. They have ammo on all them to use. They have ammo on the Democrat as well. They just ignore it. MENSA Biden could be the nominee and they will talk about how brilliant he is and somewhere between 49% and 51% will vote for him. Sara Palin kicked Biden's ass in the debates, but what happened there? They went after her with vengeance tried to marginalize her and even made up stuff like the "I can Russia from my house" line. Half the population thought Tina Fey was Sara Palin.
Trump is sucking all the oxygen out the room for the other candidates because he is the only on that isn't saying "blah, blah, blah same old I might have offended a voter excuse me please I didn't mean it" crap. Trump doesn't care who he offends. When have you ever seen a candidate toss a reporter much less a radical hispanic reporter? What would Trump have done if Candy Crowley had interrupted him and sided with Obama in the debate like she did Romney?
However, it is 15 months until the election. It is a long time. It is a year until the convention. He is like the guy that has started the marathon at a really fast pace. He may or may not fade at some point. It is going to be difficult for him to maintain his momentum. He might peak in the next few months and be irrelevant by January. The others are just trying to stay close until that happens so they can surge past him at the finish.The mainstream GOP is making a mistake by not acknowledging him as a candidate. You don't want to piss off that many of your potential base. If people feel Trump is the man and suddenly Huckabee becomes the nominee, you want them feeling like they are valued and their opinions matter. I don't think that will happen, because the mainstream, donor, country club GOP are the same people that brought us Dole, McCain, and Romney.

Heard on Limbaugh today that the Bush (Rove) tactic was to suck up all the big donor/PAC money, starve the better candidates, and win the Primaries by default. Only problem is that with Bush3's poll numbers dwindling, the donors are starting to get skittish on him. There will come a point where they won't throw good money after bad. Can't happen soon enough if you ask me.
mardoc is pretty much right on the rest - that's the media tactic - promote the weakest R candidate, then destroy them before the General. It's worked like a champ for them, except for Reagan, who also wouldn't play their game.
