The comedians and GOP leaders are making this clown show interesting. Get the popcorn ready.
Karl Rove played a visit to the Show Me state last night and he had some interesting commentary on the 2016 GOP clown car and who might win the nomination. He saved his harshest comments for Donald Trump, who he labeled a "complete moron." The Show Me Progress blog has the transcript:
Karl Rove: I love how you milked the audience for the applause there at the end. That is really good.
Uh, look, too early to tell. [audience reaction, laughter] It is. I think, I think they're two, they're two, look, I'm getting, I'm getting around to the answer, don't worry. [laughter] But it is early. We got seven or eight months yet to go.We'll start getting our first sense of how effective these people are when they file their contribution reports in the middle of July and we'll be in a better place to see how they are when they get out there in, by August and September and we've seen and heard a lot more from them. But it's early.I do think there are sort of three tiers of candidates. There are three candidates who, in reverse alphabetical order, Walker, Rubio, Bush, or alphabetical order, Bush, Rubio, Walker, or inside out order, Rubio, Walker, Bush, or Rubio Bush, Walker - that's the top tier. We're likely to see the nominee come out of that group.We have a second tier which includes people like Ted Cruz and Governor [Rick] Perry and Ben Carson and maybe a couple of others. And one or two, you know, one or, Mike Huckabee, Rick Santorum. Maybe one of those gets into the top tier. But right now they're on the second tier.And then we've got sort of the third tier which are people who really are unlikely to break through. They're good people, some of them, but they're unlikely to break through. Or, in the case of Donald Trump, they're complete idiots. [laughter, applause]
