Trump being the front runner is a little more important than that. By him being in the lead, he's making people "pick their horse" a lot earlier this cycle. Trump has no chance of getting the nomination, but by having such an early lead, he's making people rush to the "safe choice" (Jeb Bush) early, this means that the money isn't going to be there for the "dream candidates" that people would normally take a shot on early.
The only real danger Trump poses is if he runs as a third party, although, there are a lot of people (myself included) who wouldn't be surprised if there were two "third party" candidates this time.

So, is the "other" 3rd party going to be Bernie or Hillary?
Bernie, Hillary is going to win the nomination.
