Politico Lets Huntsman Run in Phony Primary

Politico‘s fake presidential election forges on despite being mocked by Twitter personality alias FakeJimVandeHei and shredded as idiotic and pedestrian by Columbia Journalism Review. Greg Marx writes, “Heck, it could, theoretically, even be a vehicle to inject new voices and new perspectives into the political process. …But, but, but. Did they have to make the thing so terrible?” He later adds, “The feature’s single most aggravating aspect is the gaping chasm between Politico’s pretensions to outside-the-box thinking and populist sentiment and the crushing, establishment-approved obviousness of the first five candidates.”
