Rep. Peter King (R-N.Y.) said Wednesday the odds are "50-50" that he will enter the 2016 presidential race.

People aren’t that stupid. Everyone is looking at Cruz, Walker, or Rand.

How about Bob Dole, Michael Dukakis, Charlie Crist, Al Gore or Rudy Giuliani while we’re at it?

Great. Peter King and Lindsay Grahamnesty can vie for the 0.62% nutjob/intervention everywhere/nation building vote.

It’s also 50-50 that he’ll be fitted for an orange jumpsuit.

I think it would be quicker to list who’s NOT running for the Republican nomination.
