1. Theory 1: it's a plot to keep the Teapers bamboozled till Mitt is nominated. Theory 2...
The Republicans just don't have their shit together.

3. Attention span of a mayfly and the ability to select what's important of a bowerbird . . .
And I'm rapidly running out of animal similes. Although I'm sure everyone else could add a few.

4. That ignorant, arrogant blowhard is just the latest New Thing
and by the time the corporate media gets through with all these New Things, there will be no one left in the GOP for them to run.

7. good luck to them...
Christie's run at the top will be even shorter than Perry's. He'll go down like the Hindenberg (sorry, couldn't resist).

9. The media is deathly afraid
that the 2012 election is going to be a snoozefest between Barack Obama and Mitt Romney, that will be bad for viewship, and for selling advertising. They need to gin this up, the way a fight promoter gets the fighters to talk trash about each other before the big bout.

11. Oh, they will wet themselves
But it's not going to happen. If Bachmann had done very poorly (Rick Santorum numbers), or if Perry hadn't emerged when Bachmann's face was on Newsweek, Palin might have entered. But it's way too late for that now.

14. Not surprising
They are just rotating/inserting interim frontrunners to keep heat off of The Nominee for as long as possible.

16. The media can't afford to allow another KKK meeting to spontaneously break out at another GOP debate
Edited on Mon Sep-26-11 05:24 PM by NNN0LHI
They need a close election to keep everyone interested and the way things are going at the GOP debates by the time President Obama gets some ads on the air of what has been going on at the GOP debates it isn't going to be close.

President Obama will win by a landslide with any more debates like the last few. And there won't be any money in that for the media. Not enough anyway.

Which means a too obvious of an extremist like Perry has to go.
