...and then would immediately fly not to New Hampshire but rather to his home in Florida.This is how campaigns usually signal their candidate is about to drop out of the race.

Really?? I thought that campaigns signaled it by issuing a press release that said "our candidate is exiting the race." Or is that too simplistic for our nuanced MSM?

Carson is as of this writing, STILL NOWHERE TO BE FOUND in New Hampshire.

I said signal, not state.

If you are about to drop out of a race, usually the pattern is to start canceling appearances, especially this close to two very important primaries.

It was a completely plausible assumption on the parts of CNN, the Rubio campaign, and the Cruz campaign.

From what I read, Donald Trump flies home every night, so please let it be known he has no intention of dropping out. Trump, Carson, and Fiorina, blessedly so, are not professional politicians, and therein lies their appeal.
