No one on FR that I’ve seen. I do know a lot of people outside of FR like him. A lot. I don’t think the polls have been overly (just partially) cooked.

I think most FReepers are MUCH more politically sophisticated than the average Carson supporter.

While Carson seems to be well regarded here, most don't believe he has the chops to rule over people who don't wish him success.

No doubt there are Carson advocates but the most vocal and abusive cartel on FR effectively silences them.

Carson is losing his support among evangelicals.

It would be interesting to know what factors caused this shift. There are many possibilities.

A Republican acquaintance told me he was for Carson or Fiorina!

When I said I liked Cruz, he made a face. Same with Trump.

And he claims to be Conservative.

Not I, but I know some Carson supporters who are good folks. I have only talked with two of them since the Carson controversy and the targeting of him began and one still supports enthusiastically (and defensively) and the other is waffling a bit with Cruz as #2 and Trump as #3.

One thing I believe about Carson supporters is they are most likely to vote for the GOP nominee no matter what.

Just my .02 based on personal observations and not media coverage.

I'm in MD and the most bumper stickers I see are Sanders, then Carson...no Clinton or Trump.

Cruz is gaining support- I've always been a supporter and have met with skepticism by family- now they are starting to pay attention.

As the article says, it’s still over two months until the Iowa caucus. A lot can happen in that time.

I saw a ‘Sanders’ sticker here in rural East Tennessee the other day...assuming it was a college student.

It is interesting the wide difference in the Rueters and the NBC/Survey Monkey Poll. NBC survey more people but includes lean republican. Not sure which is better.

We have people in our town supporting bernie. I’ve seen a sign or two. Some of them had a debate watching party.

I wonder if they were disappointed when he covered hillary’s ass on the emails...

I think a lot of us thought when it all shook out it would be Trump and then Cruz as the first primaries started to poll
