What if Santorum Wins Michigan?

Posted on February 16, 2012 by ikefriday

Rick Santorum is polling just slightly ahead of Romney in Romney’s home state of Michigan. This is significant for more than just that reason. Michigan is a blue state that has seen what the Democrat party can do to an economy. So why is Santorum leading billionaire successful businessman Mitt Romney in a state that [...]

CPAC and Sarah Palin mark a turn to unity

Posted on February 11, 2012 by dfcowan

The most remarkable event of today’s CPAC was Sarah Palin endorsing unity. Instead of showing her support for any one candidate, she called for unity, saying that whoever the nominee is the GOP must defeat Obama. Whoever the nominee is conservatives must work together, she told an ecstatic audience, and the nation will have [...]

Newt Gingrich is Yesterday’s Man

Posted on February 10, 2012 by dfcowan

Newt Gingrich was introduced at CPAC by Calista, who generously thanked the many kind Americans they have met on the campaign trail. When he came on stage to an excited crowd, it was clearly no 2009, when he had entered through the crowd to his signature “Eye of the Tiger.” Maybe it’s the effect [...]

Mitt Flashes His Credentials with a Smile: See His CPAC Speech in its Entirety Here

Posted on February 10, 2012 by dfcowan

Will Romney show his conservative rivals the door? A smiling Mitt Romney came to CPAC today with one thing on his mind, the need to prove his conservative credentials to the base of conservative activists. Telling the audience that he knew many of them came to conservatism via Hayek or Edmund Burke, Romney said [...]

Is Washington alive to the Sound of Santorum?

Posted on February 10, 2012 by dfcowan

Rick Santorum appeared on stage with his family, introducing them he said they were not the von Trapp family and they weren’t about to sing. However as he set out on his speech to offer sweet music to conservative ears, he seemed to stumble a little, the speakers version of being out of tune. But, [...]

A Populist CPAC, but where are the ideas?

Posted on February 9, 2012 by dfcowan

Meeting Donald Rumsfeld today, the man who knows his knowns from his unknowns, he saw my media badge saying WhiteHouse12 and asked me “You’re from the White House?” I explained I was not, and we are a website covering the election, but I can’t be sure whether he was disappointed or not.

Politics IS a Contact Sport

Posted on January 30, 2012 by dfcowan

So, Newt has launched an attack ad on Mitt, and no doubt the Democrats are watching with glee. There are no doubt worries that attack ads damage the Republican Party, just as many worry that American politics is too divisive. Does all the “infighting” damage Republican chances? Well, no. Attack ads are part of politics. [...]

Obama Raised Taxes on Buffet’s Secretary!

Posted on January 25, 2012 by ikefriday

Populism Gone Wrong Last night, Warren Buffet’s secretary occupied a place of honor as an invited guest of the Obama’s to the State of the Union address. She got to sit with the First Lady, sort of like the Iraqi woman who was invited by Bush and showed off her ink stained finger for voting. [...]

Effect of Debates vs. Campaign Fatigue

Posted on January 15, 2012 by ikefriday

South Carolina is within reach for Newt. However, he must now combat something other than superpacs and media. Newt now has to overcome campaign fatigue. I’m sure that all of the candidates are tired and have been traveling a lot, but that isn’t what I was referring to. You probably noticed about a month ago [...]

Democrats face dilemma as Obama may be kept off the ballot in Georgia

Posted on January 15, 2012 by Aprill Shines

President Barack Obama’s Georgia supporters may be disappointed come election day. Five men challenged Obama’s eligibility to be a presidential candidate on the Georgia ballot arguing he is not a “natural-born citizen.” This has been the stance of those now called “birthers” since former democratic presidential candidate and now secretary of the state, [...]
