Let us speak about the election, briefly. Has anyone noticed recently how many Republican candidates we have now? I mean, really? Lindsey Graham, best known for being an incarnation of John McCain, jumped in on Monday. Pataki is, as you know, in now. And I believe Rick Perry is also running (I don't know when that happened). At this point I may as well announce my candidacy, get my own micro-constituency, and get a job on Fox News. It's not like you need to have a shot at winning to run, apparently.
Even the front-runners are sidelined. Donors and activists don't know what to do. All the damn candidates, and their absurd number of increasingly small niches (Carly Fiorina has a lock on constantly, endlessly attacking Hillary Clinton for everything she does and doesn't do, for example; Walker hates Unions, Rand Paul is the Ron Paul dynasty, while Lindsey Graham is gunning to be the anti-Paul). Texas is divided, Florida is split right down the middle. Santorum and Huckabee duel to the death for control of the evangelical faction (with Ted Cruz floating around the edge of the duel, looking to cut in), while the moderates are scrambling for Hampshire.
I can't even guess what is going to happen at this point. Fox News has taken over the debates (well, they were actually given control of them after the shitshow two years ago), and they plan to have ten debaters, as decided by polls. Who do you guys think will be in the top 10?
