This was, in many ways, the best answer of the night, with Newt turning the tables on his critics with a single word: Mitt Romney Central was not amused:   The "press" has a sense of humor: Sarah Palin seemed to like it: ...

Being the mainstream media means making birth control an election issue, then wondering aloud why birth control is an election issue. Disingenuous Tweet of the Day: The tweet links to an article titled Birth control as election issue? Why? The issue of birth control has suddenly become an obsession...

A tweet regarding reports that an unnamed senior Republican Senator asserted to ABC News that if Romney cannot win Michigan, "we need a new candidate."  The "we" apparently is the Republican political establishment, and the new candidate according to the Senator is Jeb Bush. To which Ed...

Mike DeWine, Attorney General of Ohio, is switching from Mitt to Rick, and he used to be a Tim supporter, so this is big news: Republican presidential hopeful Rick Santorum was in line for a key endorsement on Friday from Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine, who...

I propose that the House and Senate pass, and the President sign into law with the simultaneous appointment of a Museum Czar, The Museum Fairness Act of 2012, to address the concerns of a severely museum-deprived minority. This is America.  Everyone deserves a fair shot at getting...

Would it be premature to call this the early leader for Tweet of the Year? Maybe, because considering who won last year, we may need to redistribute the honor so that less-gifted Twitter users do not have their self-esteem damaged. From the 2012 CPAC Humor Blogger of the...

anti-Israeli liar and agitator capable of? Maybe almost setting off violence by deliberately spreading false rumors regarding a pending Jewish destruction of the Al-aqsa Mosque.  He's not in Egypt, or Saudi Arabia, or Yemen.  He's right here, and he runs the nasty Electronic Intifada blog, and was active...

Things doing: One Romney Supporter's Rant:  "What's wrong with the nutjobs on the right?"  Why are you asking me? (h/t HotAir). 1 year ago: "Rick Santorum has some high hurdles to overcome, but don't write him off. Just as Mike Huckabee came out of nowhere to pose a...

Rick Santorum clearly is a social conservative, but not so clearly a fiscal conservative or smaller government conservative. One of Santorum's selling points is how he has conducted himself this campaign season.  While he attacks hard, he has not gotten personal or rattled. We'll see. Santorum did not have...

I didn't watch the Halftime show yesterday, but I did notice Twitter light up like a Christmas Holiday tree, with shouts of Et tu Clint! Now I know why: It pretty much was an Obama commercial supporting the government bailout of Chrysler: Apparently the ad was pulled from YouTube...

Some links I've been collecting: You'll get yours, my Ricky, and your little campaign too. Battle of the GOP blondes. Obama helps create jobs about as well as he golfs, although he tries harder at golf. Smearing Newt as racist.  But of course. [link fixed] Conservative is what Ann Coulter says...

Conservative blogger John Hawkins (Right Wing News and elsewhere) poses the age-old conservative question: Choose to have your head cut off with a chainsaw (voting for Obama) or just a limb removed (voting for Mitt). John chooses life and limb (he's a Newt supporter). ...

Trump was dealing from the bottom of the deck. And double-dealing. Mitt thought he was playing poker, but Trump snookered him. It was a three-card Monte game, but only two cards showed up. From James Taranto: ...

I'm feeling better right now than I did last night. The National Review’s Candidate Won’t Stop Digging Romney Drowns Gingrich and Santorum in Toxic Sludge.  Um, how did Rick get in on this act, he's barely been touched. Mitt Romney and the banks. Someone you don't like didn't like...

Tweet from DrewMTips, a Newt supporter, who contributes to AceOfSpadesHQ and his own blog: Here was my response: Correct diagnosis? Update 4:10 p.m.:  I think this may be more of a concern than Romney hatred, people who became active in politics since the election of Obama who look at Romney...

The world will end tonight, but just before that, consider: Both Romney and Newt are getting trounced by Obama in the latest Rasmussen survey. Romney has an electability problem.  Why do you hate capitalism? You mean there's actually good news for Newt even if he loses Florida? Final PPP poll finds...

I'm sure this headline drives Santorum supporters wild, and I understand why.  If the roles were reversed, I would feel the same way. But sometimes reality is what it is.  Both Newt and Santorum have said they will soldier on indefinitely and I don't doubt their...

The Nancy Reagan video I posted the other day now has over 18,000 views on YouTube, was uploaded or linked at Real Clear Politics, Daily Caller, Breitbart TV and dozens of other websites, mentioned by Rush and Hannity, and at the debate. Drudge may try to control the...
