"The Reagan Library was going to have a big debate among the Republican candidates this week, and they had to put it off for six months because nobody’s declared (with the exception of Tim Pawlenty). I think it’s a very weak field so far, and some people have said it’s Obama and the 11 dwarfs, but there isn’t anybody that has nationwide stature that I think, feels strongly enough to challenge him. And even people like Mitch Daniels are walking away saying I think Obama’s going to be awfully strong in 2012. "
