I think we know with reasonable certainty that standing up there on the West front of the Capitol on Jan. 20, 2013 will be one of three people. Obama, Pawlenty and Daniels. I think that’s it.
Will is not saying that the Republicans will necessarily nominate Pawlenty or Daniels. He is saying they are the only two potential Republican nominees who could defeat Obama. It will be interesting to see if his prediction is accurate.
