I have to say, it is hard to see how winning because of massive turnout is a bad thing. I just don't see some large scale Republican conspiracy to get him nominated because they somehow think he is easy to beat. They are far too divided to figure out something like that.

If there is earth shattering turnout in New Hampshire like there was in Iowa and he clobbers Hillary due to it, even with my cynicism I have to say that a political revolution akin to 1920(but going our way) may be under way. It won't be as earth shattering as 1932 which led to a fundamental change in the conduct of government, but it will be large. Democratic turnout and interest is dwarfing Republican turnout and that trend seems to be apparent everywhere. Even in my conservative Waukesha county here in Wisconsin the Republicans are demoralized and talking more about the Democrats than the Republicans.
