I think a lot of “political experts” really, really missed the importance of the TEA Party movement and the 2010 elections. Not to mention how much of McCain’s support in 2008 was because of Sarah Palin, and how much distaste there is among the rank and file for McCain-style middle-of-the-roaders.
Go Herman!
Actually this goes back a little further, voters pushed Hillary aside and went with an outsider in 2008, then voters threw out the entire congress and filled it with outsiders in 2010, and now in 2012 we will push aside Romney and throw Obama out and replace him with Cain.
These are amazing times.
