I think you’re right, there is a MOE up to 40, down to 32 range here. Carson’s support still mystifies me. I can explain and understand Fiorina’s support, especially from younger, hipper, CA people who think she’s “really smart.” But Carson? I don’t get it.

Maybe you left your brain at the door. . . Furthermore dip-wad, don't make accusations re my trust on FR. . .

Thanks for the copy-paste, but that's what I saw before that inspired me to post the reply. Respectfully, there's no "there" there. I don't see anything that would make "Democrats" think one thing or the other. Trump is saying some vaguely pro-American things: nothing about anything startlingly current, as the promo headlines would have us believe—like immigration, abortion, etc. And the pop-ups and screen-wiggles make the whole thing impossible to read in any case.

I'm impressed by the ferocity of your reply to me, but your post is at best a low-quality cookie trap, and at worst some kind of FReep-sploitation. Mind you, I'm not even someone who minds FReepers posting stuff they published elsewhere—as long as it's a prominent venue FR might link to anyway. But this post was a snipe-hunt, and your touchy, ad-hominem response confirms that—and is bad form on FR.

I won’t vote for him either. He’s no conservative.

Carson admitted to it.

Carson is the “nice” outsider alternative to Trump that the little old ladies who complain about how “mean” Trump is have been looking for.

Just wait til those little old ladies find out Carson wants to get rid of their Medicare. That will be an easy *scare* that Hildebeast will use against him.

Furthermore dip-wad . . .

Okay, I read your back posts. You basically post a lot and have a short fuse. No offense intended here.

But to me, that site seems like click-bait that doesn't deliver. What's the key similarity you're talking about?

But was that was very long time ago, before he became an adult?

I believe intelligent people can evolve. I am a Trump supporter, and I am willing to give Carson the benefit of doubt, that he is a much different person now. Heck I was a volunteer in the Mayor Daley machine in Chicago in my 20’s.

My biggest negative about Carson is that he has never managed any big and complex institution. Having said that, I would prefer him over Bush, Fiorina & Kasich.

My biggest problems with Carson are that he is anti-gun, pro-abortion and weak on the border. It does trouble me that he knifed a classmate, too.

Carson has reversed himself on abortion. Now he is against abortion even in cases of rape, incest or mother’s life.

How recently is that? From one poll to the next?

I heard that Club for Growth placed a LOT of ads in Iowa re: Carson’s faith, and that got a lot of votes for him.

When Carson takes the lead over Trump in NH and SC you can start taking him serious. Aint happening. Evangelicals in SC want a take-charge leader who will take Clinton apart and will bring jobs back to America and restore our prestige around the world. No one can do that but Trump.

Carson all of his practicing career referred women to the “best” abortion providers. He was a liberal democrat for years. He is not pro life. But he is pro hypocrite.

Be a cold day in hell when a pacifist closet democrat wins the SC primary.

My biggest fear is that Carson would turn out to be another Colon Powell.

Carson won’t be the nominee... I just don’t see it... the GOPe will gladly try to use him to bring down trump if they have to, but he won’t be the nominee.

He is just as boring if not more so than the rest of the GOPe lot. He’s enjoying the anti establishment/mad at the party, segment that isn’t sold on Trump.

I think Carson’s a nice enough guy, but if anyone ever seriously see’s him as a threat, you are going to see him destroyed promptly. His past is not pretty, lots about the guy that most folks don’t know. Spotlight ever gets focused on him, he’ll melt like a wax figure under the heat.

Trump’s lead shrank in this one, compared to the previous one.

What do you know about the good Dr?

Also, the question remains, who do the enemies of American citizens fear most? Is it Cruz, Trump, Carson, or Graham?. Or other?
