Dr. Ben Carson has just announced he is suspending his run for the presidency temporarily. Some of his staff members were in a serious accident today… one of them is in grave condition. Carson will fly to Omaha to be with that staff member’s family. Three student volunteers and a campaign staffer were in the vehicle that slid on an icy road. Just this weekend, Carson took the stage at the South Carolina Tea Party Coalition Convention in Myrtle Beach, where he told enthusiasts that “every venue” during his latest Iowa swing “was standing room only.” He added, “I believe God is hearing the cry of many people in this country.” My prayers are with his staffer, volunteers, their families and Dr. Carson as well.

Our roads up here in Iowa are very slick today.

Folks who aren’t used to this kind of weather can quickly get themselves in big trouble.

Shoot, this time of year, experienced winter drivers can get themselves in big trouble pretty easily.

Praying for the injured.

“Suspended campaign”, not sure that’s a good choice of words. McCain did that and never recovered. Maybe it’s a face saving strategy. Maybe he will never “Un-Suspend” his campaign, and thereby save himself

Praying for his staffers and their family. He is an honorable man and probably too good of a man to be in politics.
