Reuters 5 Day Tracking which seems to be released on Tuesdays and Fridays. Anyway, some statistical noise this week. Trump down to 29.4 and Carson up to 18.0. Jeb down to 10.3 from 15 earlier in the week. Rubio at 8.0 and Florina at 6 and change. Trump down about 4 this week and Ben up 3. Jeb shot up on Monday almost 5 but down the same amount today. I think this is some statistical noise. No real reason for either Ben or Trump's movement and no real reason for Jeb to be moving either. We'll see what Morning Consult has next week. On a side note, if any Freepers know how to capture the graph and post it, would greatly appreciate a note. I'm on a MacBook Air. Have a great weekend..Make America Great Again!!

Carson is a remarkable man, but he’s fatally flawed as a Presidential candidate because he’s for amnesty.

Trump will form an alliance with either the Doctor or Cruz. Trump needs an insider, my bets on Cruz.

Trump has his own connections and any internal ones raise my eyebrows...

Carson raised some $20 million during the 3rd qtr. Not bad for a no name so to speak.

I don’t put too much into these early polls.

However, this one does show one interesting thing: apparently, Fiorina’s soar after the last debate has deflated. This one shows her at 6%. She isn’t even making many headlines, considering how much the media were cheerleading for her a couple of weeks ago.

I am surprised that we have not seen more of the 1%-5% range candidates drop out.

Paul seems to be nearing his end. His pushers/donors are suggesting he put his energy and money into retaining his Senate seat.

Several of the others don’t even make headlines, unless they are attacking some of the other candidates. The media is eating up all of this in-fighting. And the House speaker situation is icing on their cake.

I don’t think Bush needs any dough. All his voters have to be crossover Dems hoping to elect the softest target for November. They come for free.

Trump’s all about winning, not principles. He’s cozying up to Carson and Kasich lately because he thinks Carson could bring him the black vote and Kasich can bring him Ohio.

This Carson, or is it some other Carson?

http://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2013/03/04/dr_benjamin_carson_on_gun_control_it_depends_on_where_you_live.html

Carson has said, “It depends on where you live. I think if you live in the midst of a lot of people, and I’m afraid that that semi-automatic weapon is going to fall into the hands of a crazy person, I would rather you not have it. If you live out in the country by yourself, I have no problem”.
