Here, brought to my attention by Slog tipper Zan and captured by the good folks at Reddit/politics, is the best headline of 2011, thanks to CNN:

"Gingrich Plunges, Santorum Surges." It's not just a headline, it could be the best work of microfiction published in 2011, too. There's so much subtext here: It's a love story, a piece of erotica, a dynamic struggle between two egomaniacs for the fate of the free world. There are worlds hidden inside those four words. Thanks to CNN for laser-engraving that image into my occipital lobe for all eternity.
