GOP

A Tampa in the TEA-pot.

Via Erick Erickson at RedState, we learn that while Isaac has moved on to New Orleans, there’s another storm brewing, and it might make landfall in the next half-hour. The GOP Rules Committee seems to be purging non-establishment members from their group in order to stage a delegate assignment system that is hardly fair for … Continue Reading →

Political Sanatorium

The GOP may have the cure for what ails them, or perhaps they’re finally coming to terms with the nominee they most certainly have now. For a long time, a nutritious red-meat diet of political rhetoric kept the base healthy, even as the real ailment still hasn’t been cured, but tucked away from sight. So … Continue Reading →

GOP candidates punt on gas prices, settle for fearmongering

120 minutes. Nothing on gas prices. Maybe it was John King’s fault. Yeah, let’s just blame him, instead of 4 so-called presidential candidates who could have spoken up on this, and really connected with voters who hopefully now know that neither side has a realistic and workable solution. I can’t blame Ron Paul, because he … Continue Reading →

The Battle for Shelby Township

Via RebelPundit at Biggovernment, seems the Battle for Shelby Township has sustained massive casualties. Signs, hundreds of them, were removed by Romney staff/supporters/SuperPAC unaffiliates prior to the event. Someone’s scared of Rick, methinks. Mako out. **Updated**  Per some facebook posts, it seems that the Romney camp suggests the Santorum signs were in violation of a … Continue Reading →

Hey Pete, you missed a spot.

PeteScrubItNOW

Former Rep. Pete Hoekstra is getting some spring cleaning done.  He’s rolled his sleeves up and scrubbed everything associated with the racist ad he ran during the Super Bowl.  You remember, the ad that is still available over the web, and gave Senator Stabenow an unforced and undeserved lead? I didn’t know Pete was a … Continue Reading →

Mitt Tzu: The Art of Politics

I’m hearing that CNN’s Atlanta debate on March 1st is cancelled. Add that to the cancelled March 5th debate on MSNBC, and we’re left with one debate on Wednesday, Feb. 22 in Mesa, AZ. That puts 13 states across one debate, and 500+ delegates sit between now and March 6th. Part of me wonders if … Continue Reading →

Maine's "official" results from Washington County, ME.

Remember the Maine

If you remember the days after Iowa, when Mitt Romney “won” the state, and all the media outlets took the Iowa state GOP’s word on the matter (rather counting votes), you might be a little wary of when the next state GOP announcement from Maine also declares Mitt Romney the winner. In fact, you might … Continue Reading →

Mitt made Dominos, now Cain makes Newt.  But will it taste good?

Love or hate this pizza?

When Newt Gingrich landed Herman Cain as a supporter, you may have concluded that Newt Gingrich is the “true conservative.”  At least compared to other candidates in this GOP tour, I can agree.  But you might not like Mitt Romney so much, so you’d bet on the field instead. Either way, Mitt Romney got a … Continue Reading →
