It’s been an eventful few days in the 2012 Republican presidential race. Mike Huckabee and Donald Trump are taking a pass on the race while Mitt Romney and Newt Gingrich are taking on water over their health care positions. So who benefits from the Huckabee exit? Should we be at all surprised that Trump isn’t running after all? And how badly damaged are Romney and Gingrich for their embrace of health care mandates? We discuss it all with Dr. Larry Sabato, professor of political science at the University of Virginia and director of UVA’s Center for Politics.
