Ben Carson Takes Up Poll Vaulting

Dr. Ben Carson appears to be the flavor of the month when it comes to political polls.  He has moved into a strong second place among the Republican field in nearly every poll out in the last few weeks.  The latest example comes in set of national head to head matchups between Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden for the Democrats and Donald Trump, Dr. Carson and Jeb Bush for the Republicans.  All the Republicans beat Hillary, but Carson is ahead by more than the margin of error.  Biden beats Bush and Trump but he loses by 3% to Dr. Carson. 

So what does this mean?  We can sum it up in two words:  "not much".  Still, it is fun to watch the liberals in the media (particularly on MSNBC) try to explain how GOP support for Carson is actually racist.  My guess is that you have not seen that said, of course because no one in his right mind still watches MSNBC unless they have to.
