Posted on 03/03/2016 9:46:49 PM PST by Be Careful

From looking at the post-debate snap polls, I can't really tell. Any insights?

Trump defended Carson many times and the Cruz campaign kept pulling dirty tricks on Carson.

Carson should follow Christie and endorse Trump.

That’s what I think as well......apparently Carson will be on Greta tomorrow with an endorsement announcement, or so I heard.

Trump will get 80% ...

I liked Carson. Cruz did a dirty trick on him.

He’ll endorse Trump. Unless he is intimidated by the threats that the Establishment will no doubt make to him.

When a candidate drops out, most of their supporters don’t vote at all. There are plenty of polls thay prove it.

The math that the pundits keep trying to do is a joke.

When a candidate drops out the number of likely voters will simply decrease and this obviously benefits the front runner in every case.

Trump did such a good job at creating the fake controversy about Cruz's camp repeating a CNN story that Carson's people hate Cruz.

If they can get over the fact that Trump compared Carson to a pedophile, Trump will get a few and Rubio will get the rest, keeping him in the race.

Thanks, Donald.

I don’t know who could have watched that and not come away thinking that Rubio is a juvenile jackass.

Did he ever answer a question without urinating on Trumps leg first?

Trump. But in return for something, Dr. Carson has had a good tutor in how to negotiate deals.

According to frank Duntz and tonight’s group of dunces, John Kasich is going to get everyone’s vote.

I think Kasich won and I think Trump helped him do it.

A strong Kasich eats into Rubio in Florida. A Florida loss kills Rubio once and for all.

Neither Cruz Nor Kasich will be able to deny Trump the nomination if he wins Florida.

I also think Kasich is VP pick. He brings Florida in general election. He’s likeable and he unites party.

I agree with Kasich as VP....the amount of institutional knowledge he has as to getting things through congress is astronomical

“I also think Kasich is VP pick. He brings Florida in general election. He’s likeable and he unites party.”

You mean Ohio?

Agreed! But, Trump will never be anyone’s VP

I’m betting it will be Trump
Carson knows that Kasich is out of the race after Ohio
Carson’s ‘closet meeting’ with Cruz didn’t go well so he’s out
Carson is being badgered by someone(s) in the GOP-e, so Rubio the establishment shill is out
