Just Asking ...
SIMI VALLEY -- The chattering class, who have little to do but chatter until the GOP debate begins in 38 minutes, has settled upon two pieces of CW: One, John McCain is now the clear GOP frontrunner and, two, all guns will be trained tonight on Mitt Romney.
Which raises a question: Why? If everyone agrees that McCain's the man to beat, why is everybody beating up on somebody else? Sure, Mike Huckabee is competing with Romney for conservative voters in key states like TN, GA, AL and MO. But is his real goal a spot on the GOP ticket this fall?
