GOP In Disarray?

Not quite, but if this Fox News article were about the Dems it wouldn't be so upfront. Here's the lead paragraph:

Ron Paul has no chance of winning the Republican presidential nomination this year, but he continues to head toward the party’s National Convention with an ardent group of supporters and a second-phase strategy aimed at raising the profile of his libertarian-leaning issues.
Guess what? The same is true for Hillary. She has no chance of winning the nomination. Her only hope is to go to the convention and raise the profile of her issues, and hope like crazy she could walk away with the nomination. Hillary could win every primary contest left and still not catch Obama in the delegate count. Though Ron Paul is but a distant memory. A memory that has every intention, just like Hillary, to play this out till the convention.

To be fair, it's not just Fox News. It's the media establishment. Do we ever click on an article or turn our televisions on and hear that Hillary has no chance at the nomination? No. We hear about the bloody, dirty, rotten battle between the Democrats. However, Ron Paul's chances of winning the GOP nomination aren't that much slimmer to Hillary's Democratic chances. But that doesn't sell. It's no fun to watch two old white men. Could you imagine what that would do to the ratings.
