Even more Team Nikki now

Matt Yglesias had an interesting take. In a contest like this when the front runner status is large and sustained political reporters get bored - how often can you write the story ‘Trump still leading the pack?’ So when one candidate shows even a slight bump, they all rush to write about him/her, which helps generate more buzz and more bump. But it fades.
This happened with DeSantis to an extent (though he had far more built-in expectations behind him), and Vivek a lot.
On the Dem side it was with RFK. He is now down to 8-9% in the polls, from 25 or whatever.
