    he will say my entry is too slim. Yesterday, I spent some time reading about Iowa Republicans. I cannot remember whose website I came across but it was a lengthy post about that person’s take on the Faith and Liberty forum they had there a few days ago. Santorum came last and he thought he had the best speech. Santorum is very pro-life.
    He has invested a lot of time and effort in Iowa. His polling has been low but who knows…this investment of time and effort may pay off for him there. The local radio show hosts do NOT like Herman Cain’s position on abortion or on Tarp or on other issues too. I think the people there are taking a closer look at Cain. Even Huckabee who won in Iowa last time around said the damage may already be done.
    Time will tell.

      I’ll just point out that if you want to share a YouTube video, after you hit the Share button on YouTube, you need to hit the “Embed” button (still on YouTube) and then copy the longer link.

      Here’s your video.

      Let me find my Carnac the Magnificant hat… ah, there it is!

      Santorum will lose in Iowa. If he’s been smart and not spent everything he’s gathered, he’ll transfer it to a Santorum for Senate campaign and go get his seat back from Casey Junior.

        How does this work?
        How do I make a comment for an open thread?

        • aesthete

          are what are called “open threads”: i.e., diaries intended to have users share content or thoughts too small or incomplete to justify a full-on diary. Feel free to post what you want as a comment in any of these threads.

            who consider their ADD a diagnosis, and one who calls it a superpower…

            Devastate has one “e” and 2 “a’s.”

            Yes, I know: the inability to correct errors once something is posted! Another complaint about the nature of one of our favorite websites. :)

            Sorry about that!

            is the weakest attack angle IMHO. If someone is raped I doubt they’d want to sit around and wait weeks or months to see if they are pregnant, wouldn’t they opt for a morning after pill to be on safe side?

            If I’ve read correctly, an egg lives around 24 hrs, if fertilized takes several days to a couple weeks to implant.

            There seems to be a small window, even in the strictest pro life stance to handle this rape scenario.

            Notice the left always uses the most rare exceptions to justify their terrible positions and attack those on the right . Almost always no matter what the issue.

            I ask: is the life conceived in a rape worth any less than a life conceived in love? Do you punish the child for the sins of the father? I expect no replies, but rather ask everyone to contemplate these questions.

            It took two tries.

            that you have to grab the embed code AFTER checking the box to indicate you need the old style embed code (object instead of iframe).

          To embed a video that you want to embed, look a the bar below the video.
          You will see ?share?.
          Click on that.
          Let that load.
          A little lower to the left, you will see ‘embed’.
          Click on that.
          Let that one load.
          Lower you will see some boxes of various sizes.
          Click on the smallest one.
          Above the boxes is a list of items.
          Click on ?use old embed code?, and make sure none of the other boxes are checked.
          Above that you will see httlm code, and if it is all in blue, right click in the box, and select copy.
          If it is not in blue, right click in the box, click select all, and it will make it blue,
          then right click and select copy.
          To put it in the comment box, right click in the comment box, and click paste.

          Not knockin ya acat, just giving more detailed instection.

            I want to learn how to embed vids so I wrote down your instructions and tried to do it. Everything worked like you said until I tried to paste into comment box. All that came up was the code. What am I doing wrong?

          • gekster

            It will show the code intill you post.
            Maybe I should add that in the instructions.

          • gekster

            …..nt…..

            Thanks, gekster.

            This video is not related to anything–just grabbed it to experiment.

          • westcoastpatriette

            It is kinda funny, but I can’t think of where it might fit in the campaign.

          • Ausonius

            Jumping through so many hoops to embed a video is one of the frustrations with the mechanics here at RedState.

            In most aspects it is a primitive website: are there any plans to install simple “buttons” for quotes, links, videos, etc? And how about an intrasite messaging system?

            I have visited websites run by amateurs with no advertising which are more user-friendly.

          • westcoastpatriette

            for commentary users. Sometimes, in the heat of the moment you may post something you regret or you may need to correct info.

          • SoFiMil

            Did I miss an announcement this was being discontinued, or is it just a programming bug that’s being worked on?

  • aesthete

    It is, at best, a comment for an open thread.
