TRENDING: Trump again questions Obama's birthplace - Gabriella Schwarz

Again, the problem with the Republican message going into 2012: there is none. Hence the disarray and confusing cacophony of messaging that emerges. In the absence of any real solutions, things like this begin to get play. Even worse, I think this has hit a traction point with the right wing of the Republican party, not yet to the point where it is a litmus test, but its getting there. The fact that it is toxic to independent and moderate voters is irrelevant to the primary contenders. The base has been pushed so far to the right that there is really no point in in trying to bridge pleasing the base and trying to win a general election.
