the verge of being completely written off as a candidate,

Only to the news junkies, beltway, insiders, and professional politicians.

CNN's latest debate has a viewership of 5.5 million, which was down from the last FoxNews debate, which had 6.1 million.

Those numbers are way sort of the approximately 120 million voters.

Most of the voters are not paying attention. They see the few select video clips the news programs run, but most cannot even name the candidates, much less identify the candidates' positions and issues.

When the actual primaries voting starts, the polling will probably change also. Otherwise, we would be talking about President Guliani or President Hillary. And if bandwagonery were the decider, we would be talking about President Thompson.

Very true, at this stage, the campaign takes on a completely different direction as well as appeal.

Mr. Perry is still very much in it and most voters are watching how Romney lost his cool, short clip after short clip. I love it when phony jerks like Romney are exposed for what they are.

Perry won this one in a very big way.
