Who knows frontal lobes better than a neurosurgeon? I have always liked Ben Carson and hope he stays in the race.

Past time for Carson and Kasich to get out and leave the battlefield to the populist, the conservative, and the amnesty expert.

My point, exactly

And I have a feeling his handlers are telling him there is at least one surprize for the Republicans .... probably super Tuesday.

Hang in there ....

Okaaaay. Whatever. It’s a free country and Carson has supporters who can support his endless campaign if they so choose. Weird.

On reflection, I think there will be a lot of bogus spin as to why things went the way they went. One thing I think is true, Kanga-rooB.O. benefited most from dropouts Fiorina, Santorum, Huckabee, and Christie. Yes, Christie. Even though Christie was great at taking down Rubio, their positions match better than the other top tier candidates.

Just a guess.

I think he’s just staying in it for the money and to make Ted Cruz mad. What a whiner.

After reading the quote, I may have been unfair to Dr. Carson. He said the equivalent of ‘Use your grey matter’, which is perfectly appropriate.

He does indeed hold a grudge which is by all accounts perfectly valid. And it’s also true that Carson remaining in the race hurts Cruz more than anyone else now that Jeb’s voters will likely go to Rubio. Cruz will likely be in third for the duration.

You are so right. A good, conservative guy, but still people criticize him. THEY should run for office and see how difficult it is rather than just sitting on the sidelines throwing ineffectual, misdirected, ignorant darts at exceptional people like Carson.

He actually gave a lecture on ‘frontal lobes’. It’s on YouTube.

I’d rather have a bottle in front of me than to have a frontal lobotomy

Stating a simple fact like is only "bizarre" to people who manipulate others for a living.

I didn't see anything in what he said that merits the use of the word "bizarre" in the title of the article Maybe "surprising", but not bizarre.

I like Carson. Just not for president. If I ever need brain surgery, I will request him.

I'm not going to bash Carson.

Trump's dishonest "dirty trick" campaign coming out of Iowa pretty much assured that Carson's voters won't go to Cruz or to Trump.

Carson should get out.

He's not going to win.

Unfortunately, Trump and Cruz have assured, through their feud, that Carson's voters will move to Rubio.

Regardless, I hope Dr. Carson sticks around long enough to screw Cruz on Super Tuesday for that dirty trick in Iowa. And then that he endorses Trump.

Carson is making a career, and a lot of money, running for President. He’ll never drop out as long as the money keeps coming in, and the consultant leeches he’s hired keep telling to keep going.

He’s not weird, he’s normal. Running to be President is a new world for him
