All five paid New Hampshire staffers at the pro-Ben Carson 2016 Committee super PAC quit their posts on Sunday to become volunteers for U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas, WMUR.com has learned.
Jerry Sickles of Keene, the spokesman for the staff, said he and the other four staffers recently came to the conclusion that Cruz is the conservative most able to win the GOP presidential nomination and the presidency. He also noted that Carson has spent very little time campaigning in New Hampshire, which became frustrating to him and the other staffers as they tried to build support in the state.

sad to see, liked Carson, but the race is getting down to two
I imagine you can like Carson without wanting him to split the conservative vote or thinking he should be president.
And Ted will still continue to be at 10% in the polls there...
I feel the same way. Nice guy, but not a President.
Odd that about a month ago he was “winning” Iowa, but that’s the way the campaign ball bounces.
I wonder how long it will be before he “suspends” his campaign?
“sad to see, liked Carson, but the race is getting down to two”
I like him too, but for the life of me I don’t know why he decided to run.
He’d be eaten alive in office, worse than Grant, who was also a good man.
Lots of people have tried to compare Trump to Howard Dean. I think a comparison of Carson to Dean is more apt.
How much are these “volunteers” going to be paid?
Plenty of photos of Trump and Sharpton.
Except instead of roaring, Carson whimpered.
But Dean, having been governor, was at least outwardly qualified to move up to the national level.
