On behalf of the whole world which is gonna have to sit thru this Circus Maximus-
can you PLEASE just lock them all in a room with one knife and whoever walks out alive gets the nomination?
Just a thought.

Christie is announcing tomorrow. That brings us to what, 20 potential candidates?
Bush, Rubio, Cruz, Santorum, Huckabee, Graham, Jindal, Perry, Trump, Carson, Fiorina, Pataki, and Paul are all confirmed. Walker is all but certain to run, which with Christie will bring it to 15. Kasich would be 16. Ehlrich, Gilmore, and King would get us to 19. 20 could be a last minute surprise if someone like Sarah the Quitter suddenly decides America "needs her."
What fun those debates will be.

Why is this happening again? Is it just a bunch of crazy people trying to make the least crazy person seem reasonable? Is it a distraction from all the real problems that need addressing? Is it bread and circus without any bread at all?
They should reboot "Groundhog Day" into "Election Day."

What fun those debates will be.
And Fox News is limiting them to only the 10 highest polling. I'd rather they sort it out in a fight to the death, but what can you do?

Which means that Trump will get to debate. And that's exactly what I'm sure the party's leaders don't want. Oh, it's gona be such a hoot.

For the debates, I fully expect them to all get out of a Volkswagen.

Post-announcement, the New York Times editorial board eviscerated Christie. It's brutal:
Expect to see a lot of Mr. Christie at those phony “town hall” meetings, stage with selected supporters. You will hear a lot about his common touch, his “straight talk” and his love for Bruce Springsteen.
It’s a smoke screen. Look behind it at the governor whose own constituents say by an overwhelming majority that he has done a bad job, should not run for the White House and would make a bad president.

I cannot believe the money being wasted!

It is extremely gratifying that the GOP has 15-20 candidates, one of which will be Trump, I hope, I hope, I hope, as the top 10 for the first debate.

Heard a pollster guy on NPR yesterday say that Trump is a lock to get in the first debate :).

Trump debating is nothing short of a godsend for Clinton/Sanders/O'Malley/whomever.
He's gonna dominate the conversation at the debates and will surely say something outrageous which the others will have to respond to in some way.
