Shameless political stunts are the story of this race. The crying worked. Huckabee’s ad stunt worked too. Voters say that they want change but they keep falling for the same tired old tricks. That’s something that the better campaigners already knew.

As I said last night, this is good news for the Republicans. Hillary will be a smiles for a while but she and Obama will eventually have to slug this one out. The Republicans will have little more time to pare down the field.
