Romney is still neck and neck with the Texas congressman, so it looks like it’s going to be an interesting caucus. From Public Policy Polling: The last week and a half has brought little change in the standings for the Iowa Republican caucus: Ron Paul continues to lead Mitt Romney by a modest margin, 24-20. [...]

The 2011 year is best summed up with these three words, Democracy, Disasters and Devices. Technology in my opinion was the big story from Nuclear power gone awry, Steve Jobs passing and leaving a huge technological legacy, Mid East and Occupy protests using social networks to organize and mobilize and of course the crazy GOP [...]

After the Trump/Newsmax debacle, this isn’t a surprise. Still, does The Donald really believe he has a chance? From The Hill: Donald Trump changed his voter registration Thursday to Independent, his special counsel confirmed to The Hill. “[Trump registered] in order to preserve his right to run as an Independent after the finale of ‘The [...]

Lots of talk recently about Ron Paul’s newsletters. But, as some of you may remember, we covered this ground a LONG time ago. In fact, the first mention of it was back in August 2007 in a post I wrote called Being Realistic On Ron Paul, where I called upon his supporters to answer 7 [...]

I’m reading Crooks and Liars before bed. There’s this post about Mitt Romney’s dog that ends with: Earlier this year, PolitiFact verified Collins’ version of the tale. “Seamus was strapped to the roof of the family car, but in a carrier with a protective windscreen,” they wrote. “We rate Collins’ statement Mostly True.” It’s odd, [...]

I’m sure you moderates will enjoy this bit of holiday-themed, socially relevant comedy. But Rick Perry…do not watch this. You won’t like it. At all. Coming Out On Christmas – watch more funny videos Fun fact, the woman playing the mom…is my sister.

Maybe Newt isn’t quite out of it yet… From WashPost: Gingrich and Romney are each favored by 30 percent of Republicans and Republican-leaning independents. Running behind them is Rep. Ron Paul (Tex.), whose libertarian philosophy has attracted a strong following. He stands at 15 percent, about double his tally in an early November poll. All [...]

The scoop… Mitt Romney has a significant lead in New Hampshire, getting 35% there to 19% for Ron Paul, 17% for Newt Gingrich, 13% for Jon Huntsman, 5% for Michele Bachmann, 3% for Rick Santorum, 2% [...]

Public Policy Polling is out with their latest numbers and they bode well for the perennial dark horse from Texas. First, let’s look at the numbers compared between the last poll and this one… So why has Newt lost traction? A few reasons… Gingrich has now seen a big drop in his Iowa standing two [...]

“What goes up must come down,” as the old adage says. Mitt Romney was flying high like a kite on a windy day for so long, that it’s reasonable to assume he would have a hard time captivating the nation’s attention until election day. To be fair, Mitt still seems the most electable candidate in [...]

The 2002 film Minority Report, based on a story by Philip K. Dick, showed worldwide audiences the promise of an incredible future in which crime was predicted, and stopped, before it ever occurred. However, the concept, while cool, also seemed completely unrealistic – how could we actually go about predicting crime if we don’t have [...]

Looks like the Dr. is stepping up to the plate and calling Newt out on his sketchy, flip-floppy record. With Newt way up in Iowa (even though he just got an office in the state a week ago) and now leading the GOP contenders nationwide, expect all of the other candidates to aim their guns [...]
