(24,746 posts)7. What I mean is
the whole reason he is getting so much media attention is the high poll numbers. Those numbers are significant and serious; he is not. I wish the media would focus in fact on that aspect, more than on him. I heard one talking head do so -- can't recall who, at this time. But that's is. In other words, what do the poll numbers say about the Republican base? THAT is worth a deep dive.
