Rick Perry:
Which of these pics is not like the others? And remember, these wordles are from the comments of primary state activist non-DC Republicans only.
Okay, that wasn't hard. Here's your firm answer:
Less than six weeks after winning the Ames Straw Poll in Iowa, Republican presidential candidate Michele Bachmann (R-Minn.) is all but finished as a viable contender in the eyes of politically-engaged Republican activists in Iowa, New Hampshire and South Carolina. That's the message of the latest Power Outsiders poll conducted by The Huffington Post and Patch.
A more quantitative look shows:
If Bachmann was angling for more influence, you'd have to rate this whole presidential run a Big Fail. She's got to know it, or at least her staff does.
So for tonight's debate, what's she going to say or do to either establish herself as a serious contender or prove her critics right?
