Someone is going to get the nomination - and it isn’t going to be Carson. If it is, we are all in trouble. I don’t like the smearing of Carson by freepers or the media but nothing The Donald has said is untrue even though he says it in a way that would make ladies at a garden club faint. If Rubio is lying about Cruz, that is different. But politics sure ain’t beanbag and to get to the top one must play rough.
I like Mark but he also seems to despise the south - where most of his listeners are from, no doubt. He’s entitled to his opinion and can support whoever he wants. It may turn out to be Romney. After all, Romney never plays rough. At least with Democrats.
Now I know why Savage calls Levin a "despicable lowlife" running a conservative charade.
I like Mark too but his dislike is for Southerners who disagree with him on the so-called virtues of Abe Lincoln. He calls them Neo-Confederates. People who believe in states rights are neo-confederates? This coming from a constitutionalist.
Ben Carson has no fire and questionable convictions on hand outs, immigration and gun rights. I'm sure he's a decent person, but America is on the brink..we need someone who is going to kick enemy butt: foreign and domestic.
There was another thread discussing Levin’s remarks yesterday. I said there he was wrong on Trump, but correct regarding Rubio. Trump may have been inartful describing Carson’s personae, but correct about Rubio’s mischaractization of Cruz’s position on immigration. Ben Carson is a great surgeon, but a very odd duck. The most obvious example is to have a painting of himself with Jesus, in his house. But also the talk about the adolescent violent incidents, which Carson himself described as pathological.
“but nothing The Donald has said is untrue even though he says it in a way that would make ladies at a garden club faint.”
Bingo. It’s all true...we may not like how he says it, but NOTHING he has said this campaign is untrue. We just can’t handle the truth. That’s why we lose elections.
I like Mark but he also seems to despise the south.

With all due respect, I don’t know what you mean. Why does he “seem” to despise the South? Please elaborate.
I actually heard him recently state that he LIKES the SOUTH.
