even two days is enough time for a transformation in nh, where first off the polls lag and second are unreliable. i think what you might end up with is again a three-way dead heat. you know a lot actually turned on those eight votes in iowa; were romney to lose, even by eight votes...ron was very disarming in that debate, and i think romney was exposed; gingrich has performed this function even as he fouls out. for that matter, huntsman was better than usual and you get a vibe that he might finish better than negligible. votes for huntman could come straight from romney.
9:43am:'live under the laws of which they pass'! it's no accident: somebody perhaps wrote that for perry. maybe an intern.
9:39am: it's kind of amazing to hear gingrich and santorum praising themselves for their ability to engage in bipartisan compromise. i vaguely recall the 90s, when they were among the most combative and gratuitously provocative figures in one of the most partisan eras of american politics.
9:17am: when tom brocaw retired, nbc did an inverse american idol to find the least descript person, a sheer human blank to dispense bromides in a mumble: plausibly enough, they landed on david gregory. did you know that elections are about choices?
9:15am: news flash. rick perry or a replica is still running for president! of the united states of america! but why? how?
9:11am: newt is whipping up on romney for the 'pious boloney' of the latter's self-serving autobiography. romney is palpably insincere - entirely full of shit. the reason he didn't run for re-election as governor was because he had accomplished all he wanted and decided to become a citizen again.
