Why Does Mitt Romney Want To Be President?
During the GOP debate last Sunday Mr. Pandora asked, “What is Romney’s Plan? What is his vision?” I opened my mouth to answer, but I had nothing. He went on to say, “Romney is incapable of specifics.”
I agree.
New Hampshire Republican Primary Turnout Lower Than 2008
You’d think, after the last three years of GOP hysteria, that Republicans would rush to the polls in record numbers. But that’s not happening.
What’s Ron Paul’s Delegate Plan?
Since the Tea Party and the Christian Coalition can’t get their act together, and have proven they aren’t a force to be reckoned with, we move onto the only candidate that can throw a monkey wrench in Romney’s inevitable nomination.

If you can read this, you’re lucky! We are having technical problems. We hope to have this fixed soon.
Romney Doesn’t Deserve Context
Before we get into the “I Like to fire people” statement allow me to point out that Romney is a bit of a gaffe machine. There’s the 10,000.00 bet. The “Corporations are people, my friend” comment. The don’t run for office unless you’re rich beauty of a statement. These gaffes have one thing in common; […]
Breaking: William Daley Resigning As White House Chief Of Staff
MSNBC just cut in to report that William Daley will be resigning as the White House Chief of Staff. Not sure what this means.
Ron Paul’s Man Crush
The difference between Saturday night’s debate and Sunday morning’s debate was quite startling, but one thing remained consistent between the two. Ron Paul will go after anyone but Mitt Romney.

Sunday Morning NBC GOP Debate
My prediction for this mornings debate is… I got nothing. You see, I actually believed the not-Romney candidates when they were threatening attack on the Romney. I believed it because it made sense to go after the front runner. It’s flippin’ Politics 101, for crying out loud. And if they weren’t going to follow through with all their trash-talking why did they even bother to show up? I swear, I truly expected everyone one of them to end last night’s debate conceding to Romney, because, hey, that’s what they did.

Expectations are high for tonight’s debate, so let’s discuss what might happen. Amazingly, tonight looks like it may be the first time the frontrunner, Romney, faces serious attack. Not sure why he was given a pass until now, and even with the field suddenly realizing they’ve given Romney the advantage, it may be too late to derail what they created. With that said, here’s what I’m looking (hoping?) for:
Question
Can Santorum be the Not-Romney candidate? Can he seriously become viable? I honestly don’t know. Here’s what I do know. The GOP base is desperate for anyone but Romney – and I’m beginning to feel they’d rather say President Obama than President Romney. But can Santorum be turned into a viable candidate?
Confession: In the back of my mind, I keep thinking that the Conservative money men are searching for a way to get Perry into the race again. Not sure if that’s even possible, but he’s always been their guy. Sorry, just can’t shake this feeling.
When The Constitution Just Isn’t Enough
New Hampshire Republicans are taking textual originalism to a whole new level: three lawmakers have proposed a bill that requires that all legislation find its origin not in the U.S. constitution, but an English document crafted in 1215.
BREAKING: More Recess Appointments
Think Progress is reporting: President Obama is planning to announce today that, in addition to his recess appointment of former Ohio Attorney General Richard Cordray as the first director of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, he will also use his recess appointment powers to place Department of Labor Attorney Sharon Block, labor lawyer Richard Griffin, […]
