It was his witty lines at the end of the debate. That’s all.
He’s not part of the political class and that’s why he, Trump and Fiorina are getting sizable support from the Republican electorate.
I think they think he’s -Johnny.
And yet the antiSemite Chris Wallace lied and said
on FOX “News” that Trump went down in the polls,
more than all the other candidates this morning.
Then the racist Wallace took on the only
black GOP candidate trying to skewer him.
Chris Wallace = racist, antiSemitic liar who
defends the indefensible.
heh
Ben is a good person. People are tired of the establishment backstabbers.
These are three quality men. Three!!!!
The Democrats have some old hasbeens and
one neverwas.
There's a percentage of Republicans who pine for a black Republican candidate to prove Republicans aren't racist. So they glom onto any black conservative and instantly elevate him to status of presidential candidate that they never would do for a white candidate with the same credentials; Watts, Keyes, Cain, now Carson. It's the conservative version of affirmative action.
Ben Carson is a brilliant man who was willing to directly stand up to President Obama and school him in public.
He is also *not* a member of the political class.
Those are very attractive things.
Proving once again PT Barnum was right.
Ben Carson should definitely be there until the end - make the argument for blacks to leave the Democrat party.
Wow. Car-lie Fio-RINO is mired in single digits, even after a week of non-stop promotion by GOPe media arms FoxNews and IJReview
Ben is not a lawyer or a politician.
And going to UofM for his MD partially absolves his Ivy League undergrad stint.
Folks are starting to realize that’s what this country needs.
My theory is that this is where a lot of Trump backers are parking their vote.
These people are not ready to come out and say publicly they are for Trump so they say they are for Ben Carson. This allows them to still back a non-politician with the added bonus of being perceived as "enlightened" as Ben Carson is a black man. Nobody's going to call you a racist if you say you are for Ben Carson.
For the same reason, Trump backers are saying they are for Carly Fiorina. She's also not a politician and now you get to say you are backing a woman, so you aren't perceived as a misogynist.
Add up the non-politician vote and you are pretty close to 50%. Pretty much all this vote will eventually wind up with Trump as I don't see Carson or Fiorina going the distance.
People are sick of politicians. They want someone who has never been part of the GOPe. After hearing George Will’s scurrilous comments about Trump supporters, you will understand why Middle Class taxpayers feel this way.
