Palin, Romney, Huckabee Already Locked In Death-Match For 2012

Have you ever gone to a buffet and seen, say, three dishes such as lobster, chocolate cake, and cocaine, and wondered which of these delights to sample first? That is precisely the dilemma facing Republican voters as they ponder the upcoming 2012 general election, which starts in precisely one thousand-ish days.

A NEW POLL shows respondents pretty much evenly split among Alaska Governor Sarah Palin, genital-free android Mitt Romney, and the depraved lasso fetishist Mike Huckabee. Each of them has something wonderful to offer. But which of these buffet dishes will win the big prize?

Newt Gingrich, of course, who in this metaphor is the jar of pickled eggs.
