“She Has Never Worked A Day In Her Life” That is the screaming headline this morning on Drudge, uttered by top Democratic consultant and Obama adviser Hilary Rosen about Ann Romney last night on CNN with Anderson Cooper. This attack on Mitt’s wife, mother of five boys and grandmother of 16, has ignited a media firestorm and opened up a new battleground as the ongoing | Read More »
Back in the ancient political days of January 2011, I co-authored a piece with the title 12 Reasons Obama Wins in 2012. Now that Mitt Romney has a lock on the Republican presidential nomination, this is a good time to revisit the 12 original reasons and (unfortunately) add 10 more. First, let’s see how the 12 reasons from that January 2011 piece have stayed relevant | Read More »
Re-Posted from PJ Media Check out this story from Politico. President Barack Obama on Wednesday linked America and himself to Easter, telling a White House prayer breakfast there’s reason to find faith in Jesus conquering his own difficulties and in the story of the resurrection. “Like us, Jesus knew doubt. Like us, Jesus knew fear,” Obama said in brief remarks to open the event. Our | Read More »
As I was reading Bryan Preston’s piece, Sarah Palin Guest Hosts Today, Probably Not For The Last Time, I remembered a piece I wrote back in September of 2010 entitled, Why Palin Should Run For Oprah’s Couch Instead of Obama’s Chair in 2012. Now, I admit my piece was somewhat snarky and a little humorous (depending on your opinion of Sarah Palin) and please note | Read More »
Re-posted by PJ Media Hearing the news that conservative “rising star” Florida Senator Marco Rubio has endorsed Mitt Romney, one could now say his nomination is a “slam dunk”. That phase, you may remember, was famously attributed to CIA Director George Tenet in 2002 as he assured President Bush about the evidence that Saddam Hussein possessed weapons of mass destruction. Now, Mitt Romney’s presumed “slam | Read More »
Re-posted from PJ Media Recently, I heard a rumor from an “in the know” Republican political operative about Democrat presidential jockeying for 2016. The topic of the 2016 race arose while we were discussing the question first and foremost on the minds of all political junkies in 2012. Who will Mitt Romney select as his vice-presidential running mate? After weighing in with my prediction from | Read More »
There is only one thing worse in presidential politics than getting caught NOT having sex with an intern in the White House and that is having your presidential campaign and character defined by an Etch A Sketch and your dead dog. Unfortunately that is the situation now facing Mitt Romney. The only good thing about the Etch a Sketch debacle is it has now replaced | Read More »
Re-posted from PJ Media So what does the Etch A Sketch firestorm really mean for the Romney campaign? The answer is bad news and good news depending on where you stand politically. For the record, here is the entire exchange that has the chattering class all a twitter. HOST: Is there a concern that Santorum and Gingrich might force the governor to tack so far | Read More »
Re-posted from PJ Media One unintended consequence of this competitive GOP presidential primary is a tarnishing of the Republican “brand.” Not that the brand image was all that shiny before the primaries, however, the last three months of candidate in-fighting has done what may be irreparable damage with certain key voter groups. Most important among these groups are moderate/independent women who could be the deciding | Read More »
Re-posted from PJ Media Q. Congressman West, you have decided to run for reelection in newly drawn Florida District 18, where there are more Republican registered voters, instead of your current Florida District 22 that will also be redrawn to include more registered Democrat voters. This decision points to a realization that your conservative message only plays well in Republican-leaning districts, and that if you | Read More »
