--------------------------------------------------------------------


 
In news from the campaign trail, a new poll shows nearly 40 percent of
Republican primary voters view candidate Donald Trump as the party's
best shot at winning the presidency as the candidates head into the
second major debate tonight. The Times/CBS News poll also shows surging
support for retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson and declining support for
former Florida Governor Jeb Bush and Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker.
The top 11 Republican candidates will take the stage at the Ronald
Reagan Presidential Library at 8 p.m. tonight for a debate hosted by
CNN.
