"Clinton continues to trail in head-to-head matchups with the GOP frontrunners, with Carson holding the biggest margin at 9.7 points (50.2 percent to 40.5 percent). Trump leads Clinton by 8.7 points (49.2 percent to 40.5 percent)"
Carson is in free fall just about everywhere. That is to be expected as it is a mystery to me how that guy ever caught on in the first place. Looks like Rubio could be the ultimate winner for Rs at this point, but Bush is still hanging in there and that is all he needs to do for right now.

I just posted the Bloomberg poll. Carson is in better shape than you think when you look at the qualities people like best about him compared to Trump. It shows he has the social conservative evangelical voters. Because of the primary schedule for voting, that voting demographic is going to be voting first because of Iowa and the Southeast.
Rubio is easy on illegals.. don't want another good polished speaker.. Ugh.. Rubio is easily bought.. he doesn't have money so it will look really good to him to do favors..

He was never up there. It was nothing more than the media trying to give someone some traction just as Fiorina was before him.

Both Fiornia and Carson had legitimate bumps in polling, the problem is that neither could sustain it.
If I was a none Trump republican, I would be a little scared at the fact that he actually showed a gain in his polling average even as he has lost media coverage.

That is because of the attacks in Paris. Peope know the dem solution isn't going to work so they are going towards the loudest and easiest to understand solution on the republican side.
Trump has been pounding on securing the border for over 6 months and he has gotten coverage in everyday America where the rest of the candidates are stuck in "people who pay attention to politics" America.
If you look at the post for the BloombergNational poll and the link for the actual poll, it shows everything you expect for the Carson qualities vs the Trump qualities if you've been on top of this race. Really big numerical differences between the qualities voters prize in the 2 candidates. But then you look at Rubio vs Cruz and it's like 2 peas in a pod, their numbers are so close on the same qualities.
I think it tells me that Rubio and Cruz should be trying to take each other out but the Trump vs Carson numbers tell me they'd be wasting their time to try to take each other out because their voters have different ideas in the qualities they prize in a candidate. In other words, if Trump dropped out of the race, Carson would not get Trump's voters and if Carson dropped out of the race, Trump would not get Carson's voters.

So when will Trump drop out again?
