Fmr. McCain strategist: GOP ‘reality show’ a ‘mosaic of nonsense’
Source: RawReplay
By Stephen C. Webster

Steve Schmidt, the former campaign adviser to 2008 Republican presidential nominee Sen. John McCain (R-AZ), told a CNN host on Thursday that the current Republican field of 2012 candidates is little more than a “reality show” presenting a “mosaic of nonsense” that serious candidates have to contend with.

“In there somewhere is a serious campaign waiting to get started and I think, when you look at the Republican field right now, you’re looking at three serious candidates and they are Governor Pawlenty, Governor Hunstman, and Governor Romney,” he said.

This video is from CNN, broadcast Thursday, June 2, 2011

6. Either Rachel or Lawrence said a poll concluded that one person
in the hundreds polled would vote for Huntsman. Not 1% but one person. :)
