There are still four more District conventions to go. So far, Ron Paul has 10 delgates. Santorum has 2. Romney has zip. Mitt Romney may be the supposed frontrunner for the Republican presidential nomination – but he’s not the most popular GOP candidate in Minnesota. Texas Congressman Ron Paul swept the 3rd, 5th and 6th Congressional District conventions over the weekend. Paul landed nine of | Read More »
“Conservative” New York Times columnist, David Brooks must have bumped his head on the way to his keyboard before he wrote this. Either that, or he’s still enamoured with the crease in Obama’s pants. He starts off being critical of Obama’s failure to address the debt crisis. He subsequently proceeds to regurgitate the talking points given to him by the administration. Finally, he summarizes that | Read More »
Pew Research has done a great job of summarizing the growing influence of the Hispanic vote. The bad news (from an electoral standpoint) is that this heavily Democrat leaning segment of the electorate is growing at an alarming rate in several swing states. The good news is that Bush proved that a downward trend of Hispanic support for Republican candidates can be reversed. Here is | Read More »
The Hillary Rosen gaffe is a gift to Obama. Why? Because it buys Obama a few days of not having to talk about high unemployment, soaring gas prices, and a crushing national debt. Obama would like nothing more than to keep the debate over the “war on women” going until November. Furthermore, very few people care what some third string CNN contributor says anyway. Sure, | Read More »
For the past several weeks, the elite factions of the GOP have implored conservatives to throw in the towel and line up behind Mitt Romney. Considering that several of these individuals had either been highly critical of Mitt, or had withheld their support until his nomination was all but assured, I have to assume that much of this support is tepid at best. There is | Read More »
First of all, I don’t really care about the CPAC Straw Poll results. If it was relevant, Ron Paul would have been considered the GOP front runner over the past two years, and Mitt Romney would have won the nomination in 2008. It’s good for a small amount of buzz for a day or two, but that’s about it. I suspect most voters don’t even | Read More »
Michele Bachmann has spent the past few days blasting Newt Gingrich for stating that we need to take a humane approach to the deportation of illegals. The following quote is from the debate at the Reagan Library on September 7th. HARRIS: A quick 30-second rebuttal on the specific question. The fence is built, the border is under control. What do you do with 11.5 million | Read More »
I just read the text of Rick Perry’s remarks to the Border Summit on Aug, 21st 2001. How in the hell is this stuff slipping through the cracks without a single mention in the conservative press? If this had been Obama, Sean Hannity would have been talking about it 24/7 during the last presidential campaign. There are many passages in the speech that are of | Read More »
Really, Mr. Speaker? Are you aware that that moronic comment will be used against every Republican candidate in 2012? Perhaps it’s time for Mr. Boehner to step aside. If he’s dumb enough to make that comment, he’s not the right guy to be negotiating with Democrats. I just spoke with a House GOP lawmaker who told me he intends to vote “no” on the compromise. | Read More »
In the past, Mitt Romney has never been a profile in courage. However, he stepped up to the plate last month by signing Jim Demint’s Cut, Cap, & Balance pledge. I know…I know, he was only fishing for DeMint’s endorsement, but he signed it nonetheless. Romney even went as far as to call Cut, Cap, and balance his ” line in the sand” for increasing the debt limit. | Read More »
