Why Voting for Obama Is Important and Necessary
“Romney and the Republicans are running a campaign of opposition and retrenchment. They want to repeal, restrict, restructure, reclaim and restore. They want to take the country back to a reality that exists only in their imaginations — and to a world that will never exist again — and freeze us there.”
Thursday Open Thread [4.19.12]
A new CNN survey of Republicans finds that they want a Romney-Rice ticket. Yes, Condoleeza “No one could have predicted 9/11” Rice leads the veepstakes with 26%, ahead of Rick Santorum at 21%, Marco Rubio at 14%, Chris Christie at 14%, and Paul Ryan at 8%. I wonder if this poll offered the names or if these names were volunteered. But putting her on the ticket would be a disastrous move on Romney’s part.

Image Problems That Aren’t Image Problems
Barack Obama once ate dog meat and Mitt Romney once killed a woman.
Ask Dr. Liberal – “I’ve Fallen and I can’t get up.”
Dear Dr. Liberal.
A few years ago, I fell down in a well and no one has come to rescue me yet. Damn that Lassie. But as I contemplate my existence in the bottom of the well, I got to thinking about politics and how my current situation mirrors many on the far left. So, I’ve got to wondering, you know since I’m stuck in this well and all, has anyone come to the rescue of the far left? Did anyone primary Obama? Kucinich? What’s Nader up to? I guess it comes down to this: Who is the far left going to vote for in November so that they can get their pony in January?
Awfully Lonely,
Little Timmy

The Fisker Echo
I ran out of time the other day and didn’t get to post a link to Jason Starkey’s article on the state of the Fisk plant. As one laid off employee said, it’s “absolutely empty”. And, now, Romney’s campaign has gotten a hold of the Fisker story. I think it’s a stretch by the Romney team […]
