Predicting a few days isn't hard enough.  We should have made Halloween the deadline for official picks, no?  There was a thread.  A lot of Cain picks.  Some Gingrich picks that seemed crazy but then were boasted about as "Told ya so"s a few weeks later.  Out of principle, I'm sticking with my pick from earlier this month which was an approximate 4-way tie for first around 18, followed by a 2nd tier of the next 2 straddling 10.  Though I had Bachmann in that first place cluster instead of Santorum who I had near the bottom no pun intended.  It's volatile enough that who knows but I guess I underestimated her strategic stupidity.  She had the hand to beat the Ricks in the Evangelical sub-primary but has misplayed it.  Her compulsive lying has been unnecessary and backfired.  Why claim HPV vaccine causes retardation?  Why claim her campaign chair was bribed by Paul to leave (it reeks of desperation)?  I assumed she had her finger on the pulse of Evangies and would easily dispose of the Ricks.

Afterward, Donald Trump reminds everyone (correctly) that Bachmann and Perry each made a huge mistake when they turned down the Trump debate that could have saved their campaigns.
