If this election was a poker game I'd be "all in"

This is a chance to put some entity(ies) out of the game. There has been speculation about the GOP stalwarts burning off Romney on this one so that Jeb or whoever can run in 2016. Whether that is true or not, I think Romney should be all in, every dime.

I think Fox News is all in, in a sense. They are losing audience and looking worse by the day trying to clean up Romney's mess. If there is any way to make them bet bigger I'd love to see it happen. Combined with the hacking crimes and the demise of Rupert, we may have seen the peak of News Corp.

I think Paul Ryan is all in too. I can't think of a VP on a losing ticket that came back.

Anyone else?
