The Fashion House Of Sununu

Filed in National by on September 5, 2012 5 Comments

Really? And Republicans wonder why they’ve lost the women’s vote.

Former New Hampshire Gov. John Sununu questioned reports that the Tracey Reese dress Michelle Obama wore for her convention address Tuesday night cost $350 on a conference call with reporters Wednesday. Sununu accused the Obama campaign of peddling several lies, including the cost of the dress: “somehow I don’t think that’s the truth either.”

Romney Just Lost Virginia

Filed in National by on September 5, 2012 27 Comments

I was just over at Electoral-vote.com (a great site that I don’t visit enough) and saw that Virgil Goode, Presidential candidate for the Constitution Party and long-time Virginia Congressman, has made the ballot in Virginia. As a Virginia local running to the right of Romney, this should be the death-knell of the Romney campaign.  At […]

Republicans Just Can’t Fake It

After watching the first night of the Democratic National Convention I was impressed by how “on message” the Dems were.  I also couldn’t help but draw comparisons between what I saw last night and what I saw last week – And here’s where I’ve arrived: Republicans just can’t fake it for Mitt Romney.

El Somnambulo Predicts ‘Em (Almost) All For You. Part 2

Filed in National by on September 5, 2012 55 Comments

And now onto the State House of Representatives:

RD 1 (D): While Victoria Kent shows promise as a first-time candidate, I look for Dennis P. Williams protege Charles Potter to win in Williams’ district. Former state rep Rourke Moore has been almost invisible. I’d encourage Kent to work on developing a bit more message discipline should she decide to seek office again. She has potential, but she’s not there yet.

RD 2 (D): Former State Rep. Arthur Scott challenges incumbent Stephanie Bolden. I think that Scott finds himself in something of the same time warp that has trapped Dave Brady. While there may be compelling reasons to defeat the incumbent, Scott hasn’t really made them. Bolden by a fairly comfortable margin.

Anticipating Biden’s Speech

Filed in National by on September 5, 2012 14 Comments

I know most people will be tuning in tonight to hear the big dog, Bill Clinton. I get that. Clinton is great at this and he is going to rip the roof off the building. Clinton is the summer blockbuster that is over-hyped, but STILL delivers the goods.

But Biden’s Thursday night speech is the speech I’m looking forward to.

The Judges have judged

I don’t like cats, but i love creativity. And so I applaud the creativity of the creator of Henri 2 and the creators of the Cat Video Film Festival.

The video is actually pretty good, in spite of it being about a cat.

The Mother of All Polling Reports [9.4.12]

Someone did get a bounce out of the freakshow they called the Republican National Convention. And it was not Mitt Romney. Here is the new map:
