I don't think Newt really has any choice but to stay positive.  Deep down I think it's what people want, and in any event, he doesn't have the money to flood the airwaves in Iowa that way Paul and Romney's SuperPAC are doing. My worry? Positive may...

I have tried to emphasize time and again here that I am not anti-Romney. When I endorsed Newt on November 16, I made sure to point out that I thought Romney was a smart and decent person, but I saw fundamental flaws in his candidacy, none...

Newt Gingrich has been raked over the coals for using the term "right wing social engineering" with regard to Paul Ryan's Medicare Plan released last spring.  In context, Newt was making the point that the plan as proposed went to far in one fell swoop to pass...

Desperate campaigns engage in desperate tactics, and the Romney campaign with its "zany" comment today now has sunk lower, bringing up Newt's Tiffany purchases: In a capitalist country, what business is it of anyone what someone purchases with their own money? Charles, I'm sure you'll be...

Various interesting stuff: Thursday night is Fox News Iowa Debate, starting at 9 p.m. Eastern.  I'll cover it, but haven't decided whether to do Live Event or simply commentary at the breaks.  What do you think? Moe Lane takes a look at the new Pennsylvania redistricting map,...

Listening to Fox News last night, there seems to be a split of preference in the GOP primary.  O'Reilly pretty clearly is on Romney's side, Hannity is more neutral leaning towards Newt, Greta I can't tell. But I think we know where the person who prepares...

The Doomsday Poll results are in. Ron Paul met the most opposition, with by far the highest percentage of votes for staying home or voting for Obama in the general election.  Second, with less than half as much opposition, was Mitt Romney. There was some funny business as to...

Ann Coulter was on Hannity last night, and it was embarrassing.  (Video embed at bottom of post) Coulter stumbled trying to explain why she declared Romney a sure loser against Obama at CPAC in February of this year. First she said Obamacare changed her mind about Romney,...
