Wednesday Open Thread [4.11.12]
Well, Santorum’s gone and with his “suspension” of his campaign, the GOP primary is over. The General Election has begun. Here are the latest polls and campaign ads.
Is Every Question A Trick Question To Romney?
On a conference call with reporters Wednesday morning, campaign aides for Gov. Mitt Romney were unable to say affirmitively whether Romney supports the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act.
They’ll get back to us with an answer. This really shouldn’t be a trick question, nor should it be one that generates a meeting in camp Romney.
Two can play this game
Rep. Allen West (R-FL) told a crowd of Florida voters “he’s heard” up to 80 U.S. House Democrats are Communist Party members, “but wouldn’t name names,” the Palm Beach Post reports.
I’ve heard that half of all Republicans in the House are Nazis. Or at the very least fascist. And you know what, I bet you there is more evidence to support the latter allegation than the former.
Santorum’s Next Step
Nate Silver guesses at what Rick Santorum’s next step will be. I’m guessing that he will NOT be running for any statewide office in Pennsylvania.

I’m Crazy and I’m Right
In honor of Santorum leaving the GOP race and finally letting Multiple Choice Mitt say YES to the GOP dress, here is this fun bit from the Bad Lip Reading Crew:

Breaking: George Zimmerman’s Lawyers Give Up Representing Him; Say They’ve Lost Contact
Uhrig said Zimmerman has taken his own steps since they lost contact with him on Sunday, including; 1) Setting up his own website under a different Web address than what the attorneys had arranged with him; 2) Speaking to Fox News’ Sean Hannity by phone, apparently off the record (“(Hannity) is not willing to tell us what our client told him”); and 3) Calling the special prosecutor’s office directly, as opposed to through his attorneys, and offering to come in and answer investigators’ questions (The prosecutor’s office told Zimmerman that they weren’t going to talk to him without counsel, Uhrig said).
