Today, a new New York Times/CBS national poll has Carson beating Trump, Carson at 26% and Trump at 22% with a six point margin of error.
Trump said there are numerous polls out there. So, he isn’t taking this one seriously and says he is surprised he isn’t leading in Iowa.
A serious question: Does Iowa even matter?
Aren't these just caucuses that result in zero electoral votes (the real primary occurs in May, or something)?
I understand that this is important for 'PR', and if you are on a shoe-string budget you need to build the 'Media momentum' by winning this fake popularity contest - but it really means zero vote-wise. And for someone like Trump, who is pretty much funding his own campaign (and getting free Advertisement from the Media that dogs him at every step), don't these caucuses mean nothing?
