My husband thought he knew it would be announced and speculated over prior to the caucus and he would use it to explain his numbers, as an excuse. We all hate the media anyhow. My mother says Carson hasn’t been serious since his book tour.
I haven’t paid attention to Carson since his Ferguson visit where he seemed to go along with the hands up narrative—that ticked me off. I did start paying attention to him recently, after he went on the Levin show recently. My son likes Carson a LOT. Carson was his choice.
Don’t know that I think it’s true, but your husband’s theory is logical, especially since Carson did better than predicted but is still fussing. After New Hampshire, Carson could point out some other manufactured fuss, then do some sort of, “I’m just not cold-blooded enough to play politics” thing and bow out.
I wasn’t happy with Carson’s Ferguson visit but I could forgive him for not doing his homework on that one. Blaming Cruz for a situation Carson manufactured is something else again. I’ve always liked Carson as a person, but I was never comfortable with him as a President, because talk is cheap and I want to see how someone has actually voted in the past.
