The Morning Zeitgeist, December 5

What the "new news" is:

1. Wayne DuMond / Romney and illegals

What the cablers will obsess over:

1. Wayne DuMond. Huckabee gets negative press, nationally.
2. Romney's unforced error on illegal immigration
3. Giuliani's new New Hampshire ad

News that ought to be covered, but might not be:

HRC's big speech today in NYC and what it says about the issue matrix of the Dem electorate.
Romney's still strong in New Hampshire (per the Post/ABC poll)
Edwards at the NPR debate, heard by more Iowa liberals than any other debate...

What the next will be at the end of the day:


Romney's "faith in America" speech.
