Newt Gingrich is soaring in the polls, primarily because a lot of people just don\u2019t want Mitt Romney.\u00a0 This is likely to be a short-lived phenomenon.\u00a0 The problem is that Newt Gingrich has too much baggage.\u00a0 Not just a little baggage, a train load of baggage.\u00a0 The press ignored this until now because he was not considered to be a serious candidate.\u00a0 That has changed and we all need to brace ourselves for an onslaught of negative stories about Gingrich, most of which will unfortunately be true.\u00a0 Gingrich will burn very bright, for a short period of time, but he will most likely flame out just as quickly.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Herman Cain is falling like a stone and the descent is about to turn into free fall.\u00a0 His lawyer warned any women considering making sexual harassment accusations against his client.\u00a0 That was incredibly dumb.\u00a0 All of the professional women, including those at Fox News, immediately picked up on that.\u00a0 This is the type of thing the Clintons did to try and cover-up Bill\u2019s long pattern of sexual harassment.\u00a0 In addition, Cain looked way out of his league during the CBS debate on foreign policy.\u00a0 Finally, he says some really dumb things as demonstrated by the following link:<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

http:\/\/www.realclearpolitics.com\/video\/2011\/11\/14\/cain_backs_collective_bargaining_for_federal_employees.html<\/a><\/p>\n

Even Obama knows better than to support collective bargaining for federal employees!<\/p>\n

In the meantime, Rick Perry was absolutely brilliant in responding to his deer in the headlights moment.\u00a0 He didn\u2019t blame his medication, or Ron Paul, or the moderator, or anything else.\u00a0 He just admitted he stepped in it and then went on a national television tour making fun of himself.\u00a0 The important thing is that he did not become defensive.\u00a0 In the process, Rick Perry showed himself to be that most rare creature in the world, a politician who doesn\u2019t take himself too seriously.\u00a0 None of the other Republican candidates could have pulled that off.\u00a0<\/p>\n

In addition, Perry finally seems to have shed himself of the professional handlers who were trying to manage his campaign.\u00a0 For example, I believe the fake looking confrontation between Perry and Romney about hiring illegals was a disaster.\u00a0 It made Perry look cheap and opportunistic.\u00a0 In addition, his wooden performances during the debates could have been the result of over rehearsing and trying to memorize talking points.\u00a0 In many ways this is similar to what happened to Sarah Palin.\u00a0 When the professionals took over and tried to handle her after she was picked by John McCain, it was a disaster.\u00a0 She looked out of her element and unprepared.\u00a0 However, if you watch her now, it is clear that Sarah does a lot better just being Sarah.<\/p>\n

Rick Perry does well being Rick Perry.\u00a0 His speech in New Hampshire, where the main stream media wiggled their nose and wondered if he was drunk, got a standing ovation.\u00a0 The reason was that they saw a real person and they liked what they saw.\u00a0 During the last debate Perry was very good.\u00a0 He stopped giving scripted answers and just spoke from the heart.\u00a0 The man has been Governor for a long time and he doesn\u2019t need to memorize talking points.\u00a0 Perhaps getting embarrassed on national television was what he needed to stop listening to professional handlers.<\/p>\n

In any event, my point is that the baggage train about to descend on Newt Gingrich and the complete collapse of Herman Cain is going to dwarf the Perry wrinkle, where he went brain dead on national television.\u00a0\u00a0 Ultimately, we are down to Mitt Romney and\u2026someone else.\u00a0 Unless Perry does it again, I think it just may end up being a Mitt-vs-Rick race after all. \u00a0<\/p>\n

So far, this race has been quite different than anyone could have predicted.\u00a0 Odds are we will continue to be surprised.<\/p>\n
