Are you trying to get my hopes up? I feel like Charlie Brown with Lucy holding the football enticing me to run and kick it even though she pulls the ball away at the last minute and I go flying.

Unfortunately I think there are some both left and right, who invoke her name for that reason and others.

Speaking of Peanuts references, I'm like Linus in the Pumpkin patch awaiting the arrival of the Great Palin. I thought I was going to have to wait another 4-8 years but I think I see the slightest tinge of light on the dark horizon.

With Cain out, I'm really bummed out and haven't been paying much attention to the race. I personally think Newt would be a major disaster to the Tea Party movement and would lose to Obama in the general election (despite cleaning his clock in the debates). The only silver lining is that Mitt Romney is still stuck at 20-25% and does not seem to be benefiting from any of the "turbulence" of the past few months. So hopefully Newt flames out soon and a real conservative emerges from ashes of this train wreck of a campaign.

Can't believe the Iowa caucuses haven't even happened yet and I have nobody left in the race to really root for. Michele Bachmann is the only one left that I would vote for with any enthusiasm - however I personally don't believe she has a chance.
