Bill O'Reilly interviewed all the GOP candidates last night.
As reported on CBS News, there wasn't much "news",
but at least O'Reilly did get to the bottom-tier candidates.

Quote:
Second-tier candidates Santorum and former Utah Gov. Jon Huntsman were pressed
to explain how long they would extend their candidacies in the face of low poll numbers.

Santorum encouraged voters to remember former surprise victors
Rudy Giuliani and Fred Thompson from the 2008 election.
He said he could support Romney as the nominee,
but joked he might have to take an "antacid" if the nomination went to Paul.

Huntsman insisted that he'll either win New Hampshire or come in second, saying that voters will respond to his focus on jobs.

He also pushed back against O'Reilly's assertions that he was a moderate,
pointing to his anti-abortion and pro-Second Amendment record.
"Don't confuse moderate attitude with moderate record," he said.
Somehow those remarks seem a little weird:

Rudy Giuliani and Fred Thompson were surprise victors ?
Translation: I had a temporary blackout back in '08

Don't confuse moderate attitude with moderate record ?
Translation: I admit, I'll say anything to during the GOP campaign.

And besides all that:

Elsewhere, Herman Cain said his wife is behind him 200 % in all of this sexual harassment business.

We may still see the leopard-print dress show up during this campaign, after all.
