| #8 Just finished going to the Kansas caucus out here in "Gods Country". First time I can remember actually voting in a primary, most of the time the candidate has been selected by now. Of course the urban centers decide, but it was at least a chance to enter my choice. |

| #7 Too bad, Ben. In spite of all my rooting for Trump, when I finally got into that polling booth my conscience might have compelled me to vote for you. But nice, calm, intelligent guys are usually not the winners in this kind of a contest. |

| #6 Per polling Carson voters go 25-30% go to Cruz, Trump 20-25%, Dont Know (15-20%) and the rest are split between Rubio, Kasic, and Not Voting in variable amounts. There are not that many of them comparatively, to make a difference unless all of them went to one candidate. The question becomes to whom does he direct the delegates he has won. |

| #3 Ben Carson dropping out is good news for Donald Trump. Every delegate Ben Carson and John Kasich get are delegates Donald Trump won't get in his quest for the magic 1237 delegates needed to become an uncontested nominee. |

| #2 I suspect the difference has something to do with taxes on the campaign finances. |
