Carson trashing the 'biz manager' who was running his campaign. One problem... the dude is going to respond, and he's probably going to tell us bad things about Carson. Remember, Armstrong was the face of Carson's campaign on the news channels for months. Now, "he never really worked for us..." yeah....
Campaign Collapsing, Carson Slams Adviser as ‘Not Epitome of Truth’

DES MOINES, Iowa — Ben Carson said his top outside adviser and longtime friend Armstrong Williams is dishonest – a failing he also attributed to political opponents and the media that has covered his campaign.
“Armstrong is not necessarily the epitome of truth,” Mr. Carson said during a breakfast with reporters hosted by Bloomberg. “He doesn’t speak all things that are correct. He often speaks without thinking. He has no official capacity in the campaign whatsoever. His influence has been vastly overrated.”
Of negative news coverage, he said, “That level of dishonesty in the press should be something that concerns all of you guys.”
Mr. Carson, who led public opinion polls in early November before his campaign sank amid internal dysfunction and questions about the accuracy of his vaunted biography and his command of foreign policy, said the turmoil in his political team doesn’t disqualify him from running the federal government.
