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.
I agree, not sure I buy my husband’s idea but I don’t completely poo-poo it, either. Who knows.
I’ve never considered Carson as a first choice but I usually try and line out positions of candidates on my list.
My son is the one that is really crazy about Carson. I think how Carson interacted with people on his Facebook (every day? nearly every day?) is what my son and other young people really appreciated.
