This was read by Rush Limbaugh on air today. Romney likens work at Bain Capital to Obama’s auto industry bailout: “In the general election I’ll be pointing out that the president took the reins at General Motors and Chrysler – closed factories, closed dealerships laid off thousands...

it turns: How Romney won New Hampshire.  It's the (supposed) electability, not conservatism, stupid. Bad signs for GOP.  Why do you hate capitalism? Another Iranian nuke scientist goes down.  And I don't mean what you think I mean, you depraved freaks. Have you noticed that Fox News turned negative...

I knew that my position on Bain Capital would fray some relationships in the conservative blogosphere, but this post by Don Surber took me by surprise, Why Republicans Oppose Capitalism: Newt and Rock Perry are trying to divide the party in a way I never imagined. I thought the...

Funny, when Mitt Romney and his supporters played Mediscare against Rick Perry on social security and class warfare on capital gains tax rates for those making over $200,000 per year, I don't recall a chorus of objections that Romney was using leftist rhetoric and giving ammunition...

It's fading fast.  We may get a change, but it's not what I hoped. Another one from Linda in Tennessee, taken at the (in)famous Lowe's parking lot in Nashville: ...

Mitt Romney won the New Hampshire primary.  While the results are not final as of this writing, it looks like he comes in at 37-38%, with about the same total number of votes as in 2008. Here are the tweets of the night, bitter and otherwise. Tora...

89% Reporting Romney 39.1% Paul 23 Huntsman 16.9 Gingrich 9.5 Santorum 9.4 ----------------------------- Interesting: Gingrich was the target of 96% of negative super PAC spending between Iowa and N.H.  But Newt's the angry nasty one, rights? Romney's argument on electability was an important factor with voters. Romney is on target to get about same...

Some things to mull as we await the close of the polls in New Hampshire at 8 p.m. Eastern.  A new results post will go live at about 7:30 p.m. Eastern.  I'm going to handle it in a manner similar to the NY-09 night, not...

When even Rush Limbaugh buys into the "criticising Bain is criticizing capitalism" meme, we have lost as a party.  There is a huge difference between using government powers to impose value judgments (a la Obama) and making value judgments in evaluating a candidate's background. It's over. We've discovered...

Mitt Romney made a statement yesterday about "firing" people who provide him with services which has been taken out of context.  He was talking about health insurance companies, and made the point that he likes to be able to make choices. I was aware that Rick...

We don't know all of the details of how Bain conducted its business under Mitt Romney, but we do know that in at least several instances the conduct was to squeeze out cash while leaving behind a failed company.  In many other instances Bain helped...

in politics and elsewhere, here's some things: Be sure to check out the blog troll argument.  I think I got someone's attention. Todd Palin endorses Newt.  I think this helps with Tea Party groups in the south, probably not much in NH.  Will Sarah endorse before South...

As you know, I knew this day would come.  The only question was whether it would be early enough in the primaries to make a difference, too late in the primaries, or in the general election. But the day surely was to come when Mitt Romney's years at...

If you haven't heard of Ludmya "Mia" B. Love before, you will be hearing a lot more about her.  Mia has the potential to be the next big thing in conservative politics. And you heard about her here first! Mia is the American-born daughter of Haitian...
