"Real estate mogul and Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump..."
mogul
noun moĀ·gul \ĖmÅ-(Ė)gÉl
Definition of MOGUL
1: also moĀ·ghul or muĀ·ghal \ĖmĆ¼-\ capitalized : an Indian Muslim of or descended from one of several conquering groups of Mongol, Turkish, and Persian origin; especially : great mogul
2: a great personage : magnate
Based on his utter exaggerations of his own net worth, Iām going with definition #1.
That, of course, makes him our sworn enemy and a terrorist threat. But we all knew that already.

I guess New Hampshire Republicans arenāt stupid. Not yet anyway.
The Donald wants to give some credit for his rise in the polls to his chief New Hampshire political advisor, Harry Baals:

I expect a large wad of āDonāt Knowā derives from those who previously were favoring Doctor Ben, and more recently have recognized their enthusiasm may just have been a tad precipitous.

I do jest. Was playing off the Iowa Evangelicals being āstupid.ā

Whew, I was really starting to worry 
Remember though, if Carson regains the lead from Trump in NH then NH Republicans might also get the āstupidā treatment. Be prepared.
Thatās pretty doubtful, IMO. Carson has a very limited organization in NH, his campaignās strategy has been that the true believers in Iowa will just hit the road with him to NH. Thatās not gonna happen, and even if it did, they would hit the state far too late to have a meaningful impact.
Plus the NYT piece yesterday is going to be pretty devastating to Carson in the wake of the Paris attacks. Smart or stupid, republicans want a Daddy in the White House that they can trust will keep them safe. Having his own staff come out and say the guy hasnāt a clue doesnāt inspire that sort of trust.

This reminds me that you are in Iowa, arenāt you, Davey? When not traveling, I hang my hat in Grinnell.

Piyush gone! Crazeeā Carson dropping like a stone! Now the ācrap of the GOP cropā is rising to the top ā¦Let the Bagger-pandering unCivil War in the Republican Cult continue. Pass the popcorn.
The nutcase vote (Trump and Carson) is almost 40%. Rubioās rise is slow, indeed. Actually, it exists only if you are looking for it. So far, at least, the punditsā support for him as the nominee has failed to translate with the voters. Thereās plenty of time for thatāor anything elseāto happen; the NH primary often changes complexion overnight.
At this point, it looks like Carson, not Trump is the Herman Cain of 2016.

Nope, sorry. I am in FL now, nursing my heel and ankle back to normalcy. I lived in Nebraska (Offutt, I was an AF brat) for about 2 years growing up, and I could see Council Bluffs from my window 
But thatās as close as I got.
Trump: Republican voters are now realizing that Kenyans are just not a good fit in our party.
