Panic in the GOP elite! Is this a job for Mitt?!?!?

http://www.dailykos.com/stories/2015/11/13/1449492/-Panic-in-the-GOP-elite-Is-this-a-job-for-Mitt



The fact that Donald Trump and Ben Carson are still around and are still sucking the oxygen out of the primary race is causing real panic among Republican elites. All their hopes that either of the two would self-destruct are not materializing, because no matter what these guys say, people seem to like it, and that makes it very difficult for another candidate to try to destroy them. What's more, there's not a lot of time to do something about it...

No, I don't think he will be a factor. The GOP will simply lose, which is what whiny losers are especially good at.

This would cause a massive split in the GOP because Trump would go as an Indy and it would kill the Republican party. In the end though, we may see a new party formed and to me that's a beautiful thing because that's democracy in action.
