The consensus is of course that Rubio becomes the establishment choice that
emerges to defeat Trump/Carson.  But you continue to see that Trump/Carson
poll above 50 combined and you realize that Jeb will have to drop out for
that to happen.

I wonder if Cruz isn't lurking quietly to take that Trump/Carson vote if
they begin to falter.  Cruz appeals to the Carson evangelicals and the
Trump anti-immigration crazies.  And he's been raising money.

running against Trump.

The NH stuff is the biggie. Iowa (Santorum 2012) is getting less and less
