Retired neurosurgeon Dr. Ben Carson complained in an op-ed on FoxNews.com on Monday that pundits have turned the presidential race into "blood sport" and that they "salivate" over polling numbers.

Carson vowed (once again) that he will not drop out of the race despite his relatively low showing in those polls. (He is currently virtually tied for last among Republican candidates in the RealClearPolitics polling average.)



"I trust that the American people will soon wake-up and realize that leadership is not about how one speaks, but rather the life one leads," Carson wrote.
