I am 100% confident that there are MORE people that agree with Trump then admit that they would vote for him. All the pundits have put down the thousands of Trump rally visitors as "yea... but will they vote for him"!
"Trump’s unexpected and sustained popularity has, at least in part, been fueled by his appeal to a voting bloc that seems to be emerging: blue-collar workers without college degrees who are slightly younger than the traditional Republican voter. Many say they haven’t cared about politics until now, as they flock to Trump rallies like groupies to a rock concert, read his books, buy his products, quote his jokes and follow his social-media accounts.
But is their devotion to Trump deep enough to vote?
For those who don’t regularly vote in primaries, doing so for the first time is a hurdle — especially in Iowa, which uses a caucus system that can intimidate first-timers.
Trump’s fans are excited to rally, but will they vote?
For that reason I'm concerned that JUST like Obama was able to use his race to embarrass people in Iowa who had to stand up for Obama. With microphones/reporters asking Iowans why aren't you standing for Obama, are you a racist?" this same mentality of the MSM that pushes Democrats will do the same to the Iowa Republicans who will have to "stand" for Trump. These same biased MSM will ask "why are you standing for Trump...he hates women!"
So unless people realize this MSM bias will embarrass Iowan voters who aren't confident enough to
combat the inherent "inferiority complex" Iowans have they won't stand for Trump!
"Presidential preference on the Republican side is done with a straw vote of those attending the caucus. This vote is sometimes done by a show of hands or by dividing themselves into groups according to candidate."
