[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Trump benefited mostly from [b]a too-crowded Republican field[/b] and an undisciplined RNC unwilling to "cull the herd" until it was too late. The seventeen candidates allowed Trump to get a plurality of the crazy vote and, as more of them dropped out, a sort of Stockholm Syndrome took over as otherwise reasonable people convinced themselves he might be a good candidate. [/quote] This doesn't make any sense. Having more people in the field makes it much harder to gather 50% of the vote. It's actually what kept a contested convention hope live as long as it could. Trump has been leading the poll since the beginning. He would have wrapped it up much sooner if the field were less crowded.[/quote]
