over the next decade. Is this necessary or fiscally responsible?

Romney seems to be.....not so popular with the Hispanic vote. In some states he trails by almost 40 points in that demographic. Now some of this might just be the whole rich very white Mormon thing. But I suspect lots of it is also a general Hispanic backlash against the GOP which continues to...

Did Mitt Romney Just Throw Kris Kobach Under The Bus?

Team Romney Gives Ted Nugent The Rush Limbaugh Treatment It's not even a condemnation. Compared to how quickly and clearly Obama's team distanced themselves from Hillary Rosen's comparatively benign comments about Ann Romney, it's not even in the same category. And there's celebrity Birther...

So, by now, you probably have heard about Seamus, the Romney's dog who they put in a crate, tied the crate to the roof of their car, then drove 12 hours to their vacation destination. At some point, the dog got so scare it **** itself. Instead of realizing how they were traumatizing the dog...

Mitt Romney versus Reality dM9DVC7kd7s I'm under no illusions. Politicians lie. I'm sure someone can reel off a list for Obama. And I would like to see such a list if anyone has one for comparison purposes. I'm certainly not immune to confirmation bias. But Romney does it so often, so...

I just heard a sound bite on the radio of Romney saying he's opposed to any timetable for withdrawal. I wish I could find the exact quote, but it sounded like his reasoning was that he didn't want our enemies to know even that we would leave ever. I'm not sure what the logic to opposing a...

Has there ever been a more brazen admission that a politician is just pandering and will say whatever he thinks will get him elected? http://maddowblog.msnbc.msn.com/_news/2012/03/21/10796763-a-line-that-will-be-tough-to-live-down For a guy like Romney whose positions have been...

It appears there's some anecdotal evidence that Democrats are coming out to vote for Santorum in Michigan because they feel he's the weaker candidate against Obama. Michigan has an open primary and in a close primary it could make the difference. I'm a Democrat and I'm not sure I like this...

Arizona Gay Sheriff has sex with illegal immigrant A bit of local news here.

It's an attack ad disguised as an anti-attack ad. OtOcrS6axnE My hat's off.

Three recent national polls put Santorum in a statistical tie with Romney. http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2012/02/14/polls-all-tied-up-between-romney-and-santorum/ http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2012/president/us/republican_presidential_nomination-1452.html Wow, the GOP could...

Romeny seems to be on a roll. Going to my usual site I see that the average of various polls has the Republican hopefuls rated as follows: Romney 30.0% Gingrich 26.6 Santorum 16.0 Paul 12.8 undecided (by implication) 14.6 Considering that Romney also has more actual delegates, could it be that...

A recent interview with Sylvia Browne: Full: MLive.com She "predicts" natural disasters in disaster prone regions, where every year something happens. Nothing impressive, except for the Obama prediction. Because she previously "predicted": On December 27, 2006 Browne said this about the 2008...

The infighting does a lot of the heavy lifting for Obama. Romney: Gingrich must return Freddie pay (and release ALL of the documents from the investigation) Give 'em hell Mitt! Hey Newt, you gonna take that?

So, after a bit of recounting, we learn that Romney fell behind Santorum by 30-ish votes instead of winning by 8. So, not a big deal, you'd think. A close race, victory by a marginal percentage either way. However, CNN and other media types pursued Romney through three different campaign stops...

I heard that a book had been released on Mitt Romney, but all I could find were to excerpts, yet they suggested you could download the whole thing. Highlights from the book of Romney dirt Hold on. I Think I've found it. The Book Of Mitt Finally, I can sleep soundly.

Are millionaires in America overtaxed? According to a conservative group that thinks taxes are too high, Tax Freedom Day in 2011 came on April 12. That's the day when the average American has earned enough to pay his taxes for the year. For Mitt Romney however, Tax Freedom Day came on February...

Huntsman to drop out, endorse Romney I liked Huntsman. :( semi-joking: Only bad people are left! Here's a "related" but very poignant article (read it, it's short!): Romney and Huntsman [and Obama]

This thread is a result of the following video. When Mitt Romney Came To Town BLWnB9FGmWE First let me say that the piece is obviously biased propaganda. It only highlights the negatives of Bain Capital's investments and involvement with various businesses. While it shows that jobs are lost...

This is a really interesting story about a the arrest of a Harvard student at a Mitt Romney Campaign event in New Hampshire earlier this week. I'm curious about the opinions of the JREF on this incident. http://www.thewheatandchaff.com/letter-to-romney/

BBC Report: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-16549624 It is a Newt Gingrich add. How dare he speak a foreign language :rolleyes:

Does anyone want to know why Mitt Romney will never be elected President? Listen to this gobsmacking snippet from an interview with Matt Lauer. Lauer is pressing him to explain how it is that any discussion of wealth distribution is a matter of "envy." His response is to not only to press...

From what I know, Mitt Romney is the one who is most likely to win the Republican race and also the Republican candidate who has the best shot at beating Obama in November. So it is not impossible that this guy will end up president (by contrast, it is nigh impossible that Ron Paul will). What...

Don't want folks to think that these caucases and primaries are skewed a bit to the right, but Newt just called Romney a "moderate" on CNN. It did not seem to be a compliment....
