So Trump’s new book is at #4 on Amazon.
Bush has a book too ( I did not know that) at number 9000 ranking on amazon. No kidding.
I do not know where Carson’s book ranks but I know it is way below #4.
And they want us to think Trump is falling. Right!
That little blonde with the big eyes who sits next to him on Red Eye is also from National Review.
We need here on this forum to post our own averages, using non-push polls. Start out with four. National, Iowa, New Hampshire, and South Carolina. Rules. No five networks. MOE under 4.5. Internals realistic. On the last one, I would reject a poll that showed women support of Trump half of men. Unrealistic
This is such B.S!
Carson is nowhere to be seen, and yet the Establishment hacks at NR find a couple of polls (while ignoring all the others showing Trump winning everything) to try and push this bogus narrative about Carson supposedly surging.
Sorry, this shouldn’t be in news! JimRob needs to add a “fiction section” for this type of crap analysis.
Hey folks, you want a taste of CHARLES C. W. COOKEâs previous anti-Trump tantrums⦠some headlines, followed by his trash talk
Donald Trump Is a Yuuuuuuuge Wuss
âHeâs a thin-skinned performance artist whose peculiar shtick falls to pieces the moment someone useful elects to return a punch.â
Donald Trumpâs Birther Moment Tells Us about Donald Trump, and Not Much Else
âThere is, the researchers found, ânear symmetry between left and right.â And then thereâs Donald Trump.â

Hey Cooke, go work for Salon. They are more your type.
Carson can’t beat Hillary. Trump is the only one that can.
I honestly think Ben Carson is only in the race to make money by plugging his book and defrauding Christians out of campaign donations. He seems like a huckster to me.
You say....
Meanwhile, Trump fills stadiums...
and your right...I’ve stated for weeks, and weeks, and weeks, that there are NO photo’s in the MSM showing any crowds for Carson...I sincerely believe he is a plant to try and destroy Trump..and it will not work..
Carson is much too weak to Lead and even try beating the Clinton Machine, and the only one I feel can beat and destroy that Machine and Foundation, is DONALD J. TRUMP.
BY SPRING WE WILL KNOW WHO IS GOING TO MOVE FORWARD..IF CLINTON, AMERICA WILL NEVER RETURN TO WHAT WE HAVE KNOWN...THEY ARE EVIL AS B. HUSSEIN O.
RE: He seems like a huckster to me.’
Where’s the evidence of that?
His ENTIRE career tells us that ON THE NET, he has been above board compared to most other politicians.

Maybe if Romney had duplicated that turnout in other places. Trump can, and has no problem drawing double the Red Rocks capacity to boot.
I don’t believe that Carson can or would do that well against Hillary. He really is out of his depth and in a debate she will chew him up.

How the hell does that square with this from the same poll ?
“Which of the following candidates do you think has the best chance to defeat the Democratic candidate and regain the White House?”
Donald Trump.................................................... 32
Ben Carson ....................................................... 25
A strong entry in this week’s Wile E. Coyote Frustration Award contest.
The questions:
âWhich of the following candidates do you think has the best chance to defeat the Democratic candidate and regain the White House?â
and
“Who are you must likely to vote for in 2016?”
Are two entirely different questions.
For example, if you ask me WHO I am going to vote for in 2016, I would choose Ted Cruz.
If you ask me if he has the best chance to beat Hillary, given the state of our low-information electorate, I would tell you I am not sure....
The margin by which Romney lost Colorado was a bit narrower than the margin by which McCain lost Colorado. In 2012, if Denver County had been a separate state, Romney would have carried Colorado (he outpolled Obama in the remainder of the state).
That sounds right on track to me.
If Carson were to become the Republican candidate, the MSM would destroy him on his belonging to a religion that has a doctrine of pacifism, and many conservative Republicans would rebuke him as well for not being a candidate who would be a strong Commander-inChief.
Then the mantra will be that Carson isn’t tough enough to beat their very tough candidate, Hillary.
I don’t want us to get to that point and lose to a third Democrat in a row,
