“At least with Trump he was in/on the news all the time, releasing policy papers, doing interviews, had name recognition etc...you could understand where his numbers came from.”
Carson has been on the talk show circuit, conducting rallies, promoting his book, etc. He’s been quite proactive in getting himself in the minds of voters.
You’re right. Hellary will steamroll right over sluggish Carson.
Feel free to Google Carson’s rallies, per my previous post.
Aside from that, it doesn’t really matter. On the democrat side, Bernie Sanders is pulling in massive attendance at his rallies, yet leads only in the strange little state of little New Hampshire. So, audience size doesn’t tell the full story.
Yeh its over Trump needs to drop out. I’m screaming. The OAN/Gravis poll just out today with Trump at 34.7% and Carson trailing at 17.2% in line with Reuters and Morning Consult. They used a 2600 person sample. But Yahoo has this BS ABC poll up on their homepage. Carson leading Trump Nationally. It never ends.
“this poll was of “adults”.”
If its not registered voters or even better likely voters its totally bogus.
Watch for it!
Corrupt MSM and DC’s last ditch efforts to stop Trump?
Manipulate the s**t out of the polls attempting to influence the easily led, as the entrenched R insiders covertly fall in behind Clinton.
It’s already begun.
I think Trumps poll numbers are legit and so are Carson’s and Jeb’s tiny ones.
But it is foolish to trust poll numbers when you like the results and later accuse the very same pollster of fraud when you don’t like them.
I must admit, I like Dr. Carson. But I don’t think he is suited for being POTUS. I think he would be in over his head
He would certainly make a fine Surgeon General or a Secretary of Health and Human Services though.
I’m still waiting on a surge for Ted Cruz.
I agree with you. A lot of forces — GOPe, media, libs, etc. — are pushing Carson so that we get hillary.
Nevertheless, there is a bias against Trump not only on the Left but among the GOPe. I don’t think Carson has that kind of animus. Who knows how much of that filters down to at least some of these polls.
On the other hand, it’s hard to say the crowds are bogus even though the media never shows Trump’s crowds.
To me, Carson is a shooting star. I like him, but don’t think he’s the man at this time in our history.
This guy isn't getting support from the grassroots.
Carson. Nice guy, obviously very smart but I think too timid to be prez.
I an with Ted Cruz.
Upon further review...
Poll: Trump leads Carson by 14 points nationwide
Most of the recent polls Oct, have had Cruz in the 10-11 range.
Bingo. It's all about media buzz to gin up the ad buys.
If the country is that stupid let the idiots have it. Almost done with this crap.
