Paraphrasing Sundance over at Conservative Treehouse late last week:
Ask yourself this question: What did Carson do over the last week or so that could result in his sudden rise in the polls? What did he do differently last week that he hadn’t done in the week or two before that could account for his “moving the needle”? Did he give a major speech? Make a major policy announcement that was widely well received? Answer: No, to all of these
Having failed to take down Trump with traditional methods, the GOPe plan will now shift to building up candidates similar to Trump in an effort to siphon support from Trump. They had a choice between Fiorina and Carson and chose Carson.
That’s why you’re seeing Carson rise. The fixers failed in their first attempt to derail Trump. They’ve changed tactics and now you’re seeing the results. The game is the same (get rid of Trump) it’s just a different set of moves.
The question we should ask is: What will they do if this set of moves fails too?
It will fail because why would we want somebody who is almost like Trump when we have the real deal? They still don’t get it. Trump is bringing truth and non PC and confidence and screw the establishment! Nobody does it better.
What specifically did the GOPe do to boost Carson? Did they run pro-Carson ads or go door to door?
