> I’ll tell you what’s pissing me off. Why is the News Media, FReepers and the blogs all saying “Newt and Perry” didn’t make the ballot? The fact is, Bachmann, Santorum, Huntsman, Gingrich, and Perry ALL didn’t make the ballot.

Yes, but what’s noteworthy is that Gingrich and Perry had the numbers and the organization to get the signatures, and (apparently) incompetence in the campaign screwed up.

That’s why it’s a story. The MSM sucks, it’s true, but MSM suckage doesn’t make the mistakes of the Newt or Perry camps more palatable.

If you expect to go against the Zer0 Machine you sure as shootin better have your act together. Am I wrong?

No, apparently Gingrich and Perry didn't have the numbers.

Gingrich and Perry didn't have the organization to get valid signatures.

Gingrich has clearly lacked money to maintain his organization. Perry has the money, but with his low poll numbers, it's tough for him to keep a motivated organization in place.
