As we head into the holiday weekend, I doubt a lot of people are hungry for one more dollop of political news (shame on you!) but traditions are traditions, so here’s a final mini-report:
* Romney and Perry Squabble Over Definition of “Wall Street”: Talk about the Slippery leading the Blind! And what’s with Perry being critical of “wealth-creators” anyway?
* Santorum Hits Perry For Ignorance About Sodomy: Santorum’s truly The Name on sodomy.
* Romney Wins the Murdoch Primary: So says Josh Marshall, and he’s watched enough Fox News to derange someone with less stamina.
* Tea Folk, Christian Right Remain Divided on Candidates: That’s Ron Brownstein’s conclusion after staring at the latest NBC/Marist poll. Ron’s long been arguing that Romney’s consolidation of non-Tea, secular Republicans has outpaced his weakness among more right-wing segments of the party.
* White House Decides Against Requesting Debt Limit Hike Before New Year: This is good news to all of us who’d like to end the year without hearing the words “debt limit” one more time.
* Newt Weeps: He’s got a lot to weep about.
* Reporters Outnumber Voters At Two Bachmann Stops in Iowa: But Bachmann’s old buddy Steve King did show up, and failed to endorse her one last time. Hard to feel sorry for her, but man, that’s cold!
* Krugman Concludes Keynes Was Right After All: But what does he know, other than economics and stuff like that?

Nice work, Ed. Feel free to stop by anytime Steve is away.

Santorum is so obsessed with sodomy he thinks all the time about how, as President, he will make it illegal again.
