No wonder the GOPe machine and GOPe media are playing the ‘liberal media victim card’ to promote Ben Carson ahead of the debate.
National polls do not mean too much now and will certainly change after the first primaries in February.
Deal breaker.
Ben Carson supports the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP)

Republican presidential candidate Ben Carson said Friday that he supports the Trans-Pacific Partnership agreement negotiated by the White House - aligning himself more with the GOP’s establishment wing than with the social conservatives who have powered his campaign.
Mr. Carson’s backing of the 12-nation Pacific trade deal places him at odds with Donald Trump, his chief rival for support among anti-establishment Republicans. Mr. Carson had expressed skepticism about the TPP, saying in a June interview with the Huffington Post that he would not give President Barack Obama “fast-track†authority to negotiate the deal.
Now, a day after the White House posted the text of the TPP deal online, Mr. Carson’s campaign said Friday that he supports the final product.
Mr. Carson, spokesman Doug Watts said, “believes the agreement does help to level the playing field in key markets and is important to improve our ties to trading partners in Asia as a counterbalance to China’s influence in the region.” Mr. Watts said Mr. Carson is “now inclined to support TPP, with reservations.”

The good doctor’s candidacy was based on CHARACTER.
When embellishment of past records is discovered, it shoots down the very reason for the good doctor’s claim to CHARACTER.

BUMP!! GO TRUMP!!
Carson’s 15 minutes seems to have finally run its course. It will be interesting to see where his support goes...I think mostly Trump, but I may be wrong.
Steve Deace nailed it on Friday:
Ben Carson does not know that he’s running for President. He thinks he is still the Hero, the Great Brain Surgeon. He does not understand that, as of the moment he became a Republican presidential candidate, 40% of the world hates his guts. He is still campaigning all over the country to be a Hero of the Black Community, rather than campaigning IN IOWA.
Go Trump Go
I have never met a single Bush, FioRINO or Carson supporter. I have met one Rubio supporter, who was unaware of his immigration history. And I have met numerous Cruz and Trump supporters.
Sounds to me like the media won. Who will be next? Trump? Cruz? Rubio?
Looks like Paul and Kasich may be the next to fall off the main stage.
Ping
Right or wrong Carson will decline
He got sandbagged but he was vulnerable
Carson’s comments on the pyramids being built to hold grain shows me just what a bad candidate he is.
That is the single most idiotic remark I have heard in years.
People have been shown that “Pyramid Man” is an empty suit with either no idea or bad ideas and a few crazy stories to boot.
Not that any poll is to be believed....GO TRUMP!
Dr. Carson, you may be a very intelligent human being, but there are times when your ‘college education’ shines thru over common sense. This week WTP have seen the indications of this. This, sir, is not a slur, but only a comment as to what has been seen/heard.
