I've got a feeling, Perry will get the nom nod. Don't ask why. I just have a feeling that the fire and brimstone will win out over moderate.
What we are watching is the self-destruction of the Republican Party as we've known it. I could see it in Boehner's eyes last night...
"Why in the hell did we cave in to these crazy obstructionist teabaggers and let them take over the Grand Ol'? Now if we try to stop this jobs bill America will blame us."
Since the pub debate and last night's speech, all I've read is any, any! reasonable person would see right through the Perry's, Santorum's, Palin's and Bachmann's out there. They can't. The funny thing is only about 10-15 percent of the Republican Party follows the Tea Party mantra.
