Bye Bye Ben Carson

37. He won't win the nomination but I'm not so sure the religious wing of the party will dump him.

The rank and file of the religious wing of the party will, I think, stay loyal to Carson despite his race. He is one of them. They know they've been screwed over by the GOP establishment which promises but never delivers on the things they care about.

The more cynical leaders in the religious right, the business wing and the neocon wing of the party of course have no intention of nominating someone like Carson. They are in it to win it and yes they will destroy Ben Carson in a heartbeat to clear the way for someone they can work with; Rubio, Kasich or if he can get his foot out of his mouth, Bush.

There's always an evangelical love fest around one of the candidates especially in Iowa. This candidate always comes to grief in the more libertarian New Hampshire and then gets ground down in the deep south where love of Jesus always gives way to love of the military and of guns and of course the deep pockets of those supporting the establishment candidate.
