There’s a train wreck picking up survivors from a plane crash

This is a truly impressive flameout:
Five other candidates received less than one-half of 1 percentage point support: former Virginia Gov. Jim Gilmore, Sen. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina, Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal, former New York Gov. George Pataki and Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker.
Walker’s collapse is especially stark.
Celebrated by conservatives — in the party’s base and its donor class alike — for his union-busting efforts in Wisconsin, Walker at one point led the field in the key early voting state of Iowa.
His support had already dropped to 5% in a CNN/ORC poll in early September, but the bottom appears to have fallen out completely since then — with a second flat debate performance coming after criticism of his disparate answers on issues like birthright citizenship.
All credit to djw, who identified Walker as being not ready for public access while I still thought he was a strong candidate.
Obviously, ignore me since I once thought Walker was the most likely nominee, but at this point I’d be somewhere between surprised and shocked if Rubio wasn’t the nominee.
