Ben Carson Knocks Donald Trump From Top Spot Nationally-cnn by seunmsg(m): 1:55pm On Oct 28, 2015
Washington (CNN)For the first time in months, a national poll shows Donald Trump is not leading the Republican 2016 primary race, and instead has Ben Carson in first place.

Carson won the support of 26% of Republican primary voters, compared to 22% who are backing Trump, according to CBS News/New York Times. Though within the poll's margin of error, it marks the first time since the billionaire businessman's dominant rise over the summer where he has been bumped from the top spot nationally.

The new numbers also represent a reversal from the last CBS/New York Times poll, taken more than a month ago, which saw Trump leading Carson 27%-23%.

Carson and Trump have been running consistently neck-and-neck since the start of September -- with other candidates struggling to keep pace.

The switch in the lead comes as Carson has taken a clear lead in the Iowa race, beating Trump in some polls by double-digits. Trump told MSNBC's "Morning Joe" Tuesday morning "I don't get it."

Don't be too sure. At the rate he is going, nobody can write him off. He is now a major contender and I won't be surprised if he picks up the republican nomination.

It will be a disaster if the Republicans ever dares to give Trump their ticket, although it is very unlikely! Trump is more or less a comedian than a presidential material!

Carson is going to make a huge in-road against any candidate the Democrats are going to present..

Trump is brash. Though he speaks the truth a lot of times. But I do not think he will do well in terms of policies.

Prefer Ben any day. He calculates and speaks after thinking. He has a lot of emotional intelligence. My opinion though.

Trump is a careless speaker who does not listen to himself. Republicans will fail woefully if they ever make mistake to field him, because I wonder how he will garner votes from the African-American/Blacks going by what he said recently. You also remember that about a month ago he called Mexicans thieves. I wonder how such a candidate can win any election.
