Republicans preparing to watch Wednesday night’s GOP debate have varying opinions of the candidates vying for their party’s nomination. The candidates’ net favorable scores range from +60 for Ben Carson to +8 for John Kasich and +10 for Chris Christie. Carson’s strength of image is formidable; his net favorable score — the difference between his favorable and unfavorable ratings — is 20 percentage points higher than the next-highest-rated candidate, Marco Rubio.
