Worth a few votes probably, not any meaningful amount that I can image.
Carson's announcement was exciting ... for about 10 minutes, or however long it took to research the guy at a Presidential vote level. Once you got beyond his general imaging there simply wasn't much to be excited (or even lukewarm) about that I could find.

So is Carson just trying to blow thing up, or is this a heartfelt endorsement?

My gut says its relatively sincere though I can't imagine the potential opportunity is lost on him & isn't entirely absent as a factor. But isn't that true for all of us to some extent? That we see things through the prism of "what does X mean for me"? There's nothing nearly as glaring to me as the Christie deal, I can readily believe that Carson does see Trump as the best of the remaining options.
