Mission Statement: This blog reviews the news of the day in light of 242 years of American history. "Nationalism," a modern day pejorative, has been our country's politic throughout history, until 2008. Obama changed that narrative. Trump is seeking a return to our historical roots. Midknight Review supports this return to normality.
Who has benefited the most in the ebb and flow of GOP presidential politics?
Surprising, the answer to our headlined question is not Mitt Romney. Rather , it is Sarah Palin and Herman Cain. Understand that Cain is fighting for "name recognition" and has jumped in the polls from a 2% margin to the present 8%. Palin has experienced an equally gratifying rise in the polls, up from 9 to 11 percent to a very respectable 15% . I personally do not believe that Newt or Ron Paul have a chance at the GOP nomination, nor do I believe the conservative hero, Michele Bachmann, is in a good position although she may make a "go" of it. Time will tell. Jon Huntsman is no conservative and has no chance, either. No one knows who Gary Johnson is (previous conservative Governor of New Mexico as is Jon Huntsmann).
