The vacuum is not the other GOP candidates.
The vacuum is the whole GOPe!
Mark Steyn said it perfectly on "Rush" this week:
You've got two political parties. One delivers what its constituency wants (welfare and big gov't). The other doesn't deliver what its constituency wants (freedom and limited gov't).
End of story.

Another succinct observation from Steyn. But no matter.
We will still be inundated with reams of -what does Dr. Krauthammer call it? Oh yeah, “word salad” - alleged “analysis” from such clueless fossils as George Will and the rest of the “conservative” chattering class.
GOPe - Relentlessly tone deaf and proud of it.
