...The proportion of Republican voters favoring Mr. Carson rose to 23 percent from 6 percent in the previous CBS News poll, which was taken just before the first televised Republican debate in early August. Over that same period, Mr. Trump made modest gains, to 27 percent from 24 percent.

This is not true!
I don’t think so either. Wait till the amnesty effect hits his polls.
BTW, what has Carson done in the past month to bring on this meteoric rise?
Didn’t you hear? He’s black! That’s good for 20 points with the masses. Just ask Obama.
Trump rolls on.
LOL!
Last gasp of the GOPEs and their lefty press buddies.
(1) Suspicious poll. (2) Still three full points between first and second. (3) Contrary to what some seem to think, the margin of error does not automatically favor the underdog.
This is so transparent.
Compare the two men. Compare every aspect of a campaign run.

Where he stands on most important issues
It is a complete impossibility that Carson is anywhere near Trump in the polls.
I note that some polls still show him around 22% another figure I find preposterous.
Why are some showing 24% or 27% now?
What visible signs of that are there? NONE
It’s rather obvious that, contrary to Ann Coulter’s assertion,
that Trump’s popularity is totally about illegal immigration.
It is about being opposed to the political class.
2) It did NOT yet reflect Carson's amnesty statements
3) We always need to remember MOE, which could mean Carson is almost tied, or could mean Trump is up by 7-8.
4) Finally, there is always the "outlier" effect. We had an IA poll showing them tied, then immediately a couple more polls came out showing Trump hugely ahead in IA.
Slimes got a poll that skews it a few more points to their super biased viewpoint. LoL. We’ll see who wins Iowa, NH, SC, FL, TX, NC, CA, NV, AL, GA, MO ... Trump leads in all these state polls and more.
I dont get it. Why is this man being considered?
Maybe but a lot of people don’t realize CBS is total communist propaganda. NBC gets more attention but CBS “News” is like a constant Pravda stream. So anything they come up with is highly suspect.
Oh no! And when Ben talks about his amnesty plan why he’ll zoom right past Trump! We’re doomed I tell ya doomed!
Ben Carson is lukewarm on abortion, pro-amnesty, and has been silent on the major issues facing traditional family values until he see which direction the wind is blowing.
CRUZ 2016
The Republican Establishment has been hyping Carson for the last month to pump him up.
The end game remains taking Trump down so Bush can break through and win in the end.
>> I dont get it. Why is this man being considered?
Black. Articulate. Political outsider. Black. Of good character. Well spoken. And did I mention he’s black?
Jeb Bush fell in the poll, to 6 percent, from 13 percent, and Gov. Scott Walker of Wisconsin tumbled to 2 percent from 10 percent. No other candidates fell as much as those two, according to the poll.
