I don’t get how after the last debate, Carson is number 2. Didn’t anyone watch the debate? Or did the pollsters ask a bunch of Carson supporters?
>> Carson is number 2. Didn’t anyone watch the debate?
JMO: There is a surprisingly large group comprised of what I’ll call “low information Christian voters”. Don’t get me wrong — I mean no disrespect for this group. But they don’t pay close attention to politics (often because they’re spending much of their time in service to the LORD).
This group has latched on to the idea that Ben Carson is a) a devout Christian and b) a political outsider and c) a “good guy”, and that’s ALL they need — or care — to know. They read one of his feel-good books and see him on a talk show once or twice, and the hook is set.
I don’t think this condition is healthy, because his supporters are not looking past his “goodness” to see if he can actually DO THE JOB.
Then again I’m not too worried about it, because I also don’t think their allegiance is permanent.
Just my 2c. FRegards
Fox News refuses to report on Carson saying Teri Schiavo being starved death was “much ado about nothing”. Fox pimping for him is the main reason he’s fooling voters and remains high in the polls.
