Handing Out the Keyes

Jim Geraghty isn't a fan of the Des Moines Register's decision to include Alan Keyes in the next Republican presidential debate. It seems to me that the only reason for Keyes's last-minute presidential bid is to be allowed to hector the other candidates in the debates. Although I've got to say, Keyes did respectably in Iowa in 1996 and finished third there with 14 percent in 2000. Keyes maybe more of a John Cox-style candidate this time around, but don't be surprised if he does at least as well or slightly better in the caucuses than Duncan Hunter.
