Politico is covering 2012, like, super intensely, or something

Politico is covering the 2012 GOP field super intensely, the NYT noted in a Sunday front-pager. Ok, but really?

On Tuesday, Mike Huckabee said Palestinians should move to somewhere other than, you know, Palestine. AP was up with the news at 9:57am, and Josh Marshall highlighted it at 1:14pm. What about Politico? They only got around to understanding and reporting the basic significance with a short mention this morning. So like a day behind.

Maybe they were too busy BREAKING THE NEWS that Huckabee went duck hunting. No, really.

Having lots of reporters covering the campaign is all well and good, but, only so much good if they can't see the news under their noses.
