Perry's gaffe makes it Romney's race to lose

On the latest episode of "The Drive," I discuss how the Republican field seems to be splitting into one in which Mitt Romney occupies the first tier and everyone else sits on the second or third.

With Rick Perry having done significant damage to his chances at Wednesday's debate, Herman Cain bogged down by sexual harassment allegations and no one else in the field looking like a serious contender, Romney can't help but feel good about his chances. That doesn't mean, however, that conservatives' nagging doubts about him are going away.
