The Obama campaign makes a major mistake if they think that it is in their best interest to widen the field and have more than one frontrunner. If Perry can keep his traction,

isn't going anywhere without a fight. Instead of 1 target to freeze and attack, they'll have 2 people out there throwing barbs at each other but throwing major attacks at Obama's shoddy record. They'll have to spend more money and effort to fend off these attacks.

It's funny watching Axlerod fail. He seems to think that it took skill to get Obama elected in 2008 (the fact that he only won by a few percentage points after Bush should scare the hell out of them). Now that Obama is a lamer version of Jimmy Carter, they simply can't afford to have people out there exposing their failures. Putting the spotlight on another person who can articulate those failures? Terrible idea. Seeing as Perry already beat the shit out of an Axlerod strategy, Obama and his team ought to be quite frightened.
