Enjoying the Carson surge

Rich Lowry finds Dr. Ben Carson's surge to the top refreshing.
Ben Carson stands for something different. His personal story shows how true class isn't about riches, but about character. Donald Trump has all the finest things and I'd hazard to guess barely as much class as Ben Carson's penniless mother struggling to raise her sons had in her pinky.
Carson may not ultimately have the political pull of Trump, who is more mediagenic and can potentially spend much more money. Yet, if conservatives want to flirt with an unconventional candidate, Carson provides the opportunity to do it without a guilty conscience.

I don't think too many Conservatives have "guilty consciences" supporting Donald Trump.

He fights.

And he fights back.

Very attractive these days.
