There is yet another GOP debate starting at 8pm tonight, this time in Las Vegas, and CNN, as co-sponsor, will be “carrying it live”. (I count 13 more, after this, and that’s just between November and April 2012.) Since I was tragically wrong in my predictions for the last debate (no beercans were thrown), I will instead share the advice of a much wiser and more politically astute commentor, Charlie Pierce at Esquire:
Call me Kreskin, but I predict that one Robert S. Halper very well may come up in tonight’s Republican debate. The question is, of course, whether anyone is deft enough to hang him around Mitt Romney’s neck. So far, they haven’t been able to make Romney pay a serious price in the polls for having invented Obamacare — Yes, you did, Mitt. I was here. Remember? By the way, that DiMasi guy who helped you pass the thing in the legislature back in ’06? You might want to drop him a card. — and this one seems a bit arcane for a soundbite. Rick Perry’s too stumped by conventional English to do it, and I think Herman Cain’s going to have enough problems. My money’s on Newt, who’s the most accomplished backstabber since the O’Jay’s. It’s his one true political calling, and Newt’s one of the few Republicans not currently crawfishing on his previous loathing of the Occupy movement….

I hope he gets in to teh gey questions really deep. Especially of the Santorum.

I’d like to take this opportunity to thank all the people who watch these debates so I don’t have to. Really, I think I’d gouge my eyes out and cut my ears off if I tried to sit through them this time. How those others manage not to do that, I don’t know.
KG
wait… these good god fearing christian folks (obviously not Romney and Huntsman (I kid, I kid)) are willing to go to Sin City? Have they no shame? Don’t they know what happens there? There’s drinking in the streets, gambling, strip clubs, brothels… I mean, I know why I go there… but them? Really?
And in the city where the housing bubble burst the loudest, I don’t think “deregulate the banks more” is going to go over well.
PS – what are the odds that someone asks Romney or Huntsman a question about the Sister Wives show (since they live in the Vegas area now)?
PSS – yes, I am embarrassed to know that

Of course they’re upset. You think they mow their own lawns or are even willing to pay minimum wage to “Manuel” who comes by and does their landscaping every week?

@Judas Escargot: Some refinements will no doubt be necessary. However, I believe it would be possible to renormalize the mean GOP audience to continually track to the right, so even if any individual candidate fluctuation is far from the audience mean, eventually the mean will move to incorporate that fluctuation.
Thus, Peak Wingnut remains an unreachable asymptotic location.
