Would it be considered fraud or something if I said, “It looks like Carson is dropping out of the race?” Donald Trump is a legal expert (at least he’s seems well acquainted with fraud), I should ask him I guess.

That’s the correct date. This is from last month.

This has been going on for months with Carson’s campaign but I guess he now has a scape goat with Cruz.

It was HIS campaign that said he wasn’t going to NH or SC
It was CNN that reported it
It was HIS website that had zero events scheduled for either place
It was HIS employees that left for Cruz’s camp

This report suggests that the Carson campaign was already in a death spiral before the IA kerfuffle.

Carson should have made this clear before the Iowa vote so that the caucus voters could have determined for themselves if they wanted to vote for somebody else.

Oh wait, he did.

I hope Ted Cruz doesn’t take note of this. Some idiots will accuse him of voter fraud.

Not particularly, Carson was like Obama early on, folks just projected onto him what they wanted him to be... He wasn’t of course, and as it became obvious he wasn’t what they projected him to be, his support fell away.

Carson is a smart, accomplished man, but he really had no chance at the nomination, and really should have gotten better council before deciding to get involved.

Well, I guess you can say IT IS the frontrunner's fault. After all, if Carson had won Iowa, those funds wouldn't be drying up. Would they be now?

Remember the story about Carson knifing someone as a teenager?

Yep. That was the one when Trump called Ben "pathological" iirc

Congratulations Cruz. I wasn’t even trying. I did better than anyone said I wold so I didn’t try. The election was stolen. Cruz is a felon for sending out mailers.

Was that just changed? There WAS a date of January just minutes ago for the original piece. Wondering now if they are recycling older news. (Wapo)

You don't show up for an NFL game and complain about how hard they hit.

Put your pads on or sit down on the sideline.

And when he doesn’t, will Trumpbots keep demeaning themselves by hanging on to his every word?
