Now for Kasich and Rubio to drop out.

He will endorse Trump, and here comes your next Surgeon General. Top doctor, so to say.

Exactly what I was thinking.
Go Cruz!

I saw this posted earlier. It says he is withdrawing from the debate, but does it really say that he’s suspending his campaign? Don’t get me wrong, I think he SHOULD suspend. But the wording of this seems weird.

Carson needed more fire, in my opinion. Too soft spoken.

That said, he truly wants whats best for America and I wish him the best of luck in the future.

The CNN Reporterette last night was saying she heard rumors that the GOPe was going to offer Carson full backing if he drops out and runs for the FL Senate seat.

Surgeon General is a waste of talent for a guy of Carson’s stature and abilities. I was thinking Health and Human Services Secretary for ANY Republican administration.

How do you get four? Trump, Cruz Rubio.

Oh wow, are you counting Kasich? Hmmph. I suppose technically....

You find that on the Internet today. Also talk that he turned down a run for the seat (Rubio's) last year.

But is that really something they could (or would) deliver on? If somebody better positioned to run for the seat decides to try for it, Ben may end up high and dry.

Well Carson would be an improvement on the current occupant of the FL Senate Seat.

Dr. Carson is far TOO NICE for this ridiculous process.

Thank you sir, for your time and service. Without question, you did raise the quality of the dialogue.

This was inevitable. He’s a nice guy, genuinely interested in open and civil discussion of the issues, is definitely a patriot and not a typical back-stabbing politician. He’s also not, IMHO, suitable for the Presidency.

It will be interesting to see who his supporters move to. I’m not sure that he’ll endorse anyone, but I’m pretty sure that he will support whomever the nominee is. Left to their own devices, I would have to believe that Trump will garner about 60% of them. Cruz would’ve been in the running for maybe 40% himself...until the Iowa dirty tricks. Now I see Cruz getting maybe 15% - 20%, and Rubio getting the rest. Net win for Trump - just my opinion.

He said he’ll speak about it Friday, which is when He’ll probably officially get out.

It’s deal-making time until then.

Think he will remember the early Trump statements?
