Ben Carson: Questions on background aren't 'real' scandals

[Chicog]

Carson who?

MSNBC and Fox were buzzing last night with news about Ted Cruz now in #2 poll spot. Top two groups backing him are the evangelical religious nuts and ultra conservatives. He is a smarmy, repulsive gnome.

Meanwhile Trump is babbling about black people, dancing muslims, falling bodies, and Twitter.

And Jeb Bush's desperate new Fox commercial has him all bug eyed and pounding the podium about a global Holy War.

OMG!

Rubio's new one has him down as the best candidate to fight IS.

And he doesn't even reach for his water.

And poor Bobby Jindal could have made the next clown show.

CNN unveiled on Friday the rules next month's Republican presidential debate — and one major tweak stands out.

In addition to meeting a certain threshold in national polls, candidates can qualify through their standing in polls of either of the first two voting states.

Some Republican critics complained that the four previous debates only used national polling to determine which candidates got to be on the main stage.

For the prime-time December 15 debate, however, the White House hopefuls can qualify either by getting 3.5% in national polls recognized by CNN, or 4% in surveys of either Iowa or New Hampshire.
