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...

Did you witness the pile on Newt last night about his vision for new space exploration and the reinvigoration of the space industry? While some of Newt's space ideas (they're just ideas, not proposals) are grandiose in the way we always have dreamed of space, his proposals...

The only way Mitt Romney wins a nomination is by destroying others.  It was true in 2008, and it's true in 2012.  He is incapable of bringing people together with positive inspiration.  He had the chance early in this cycle to prove he would not run the...

Yessir, there is tonight: UCLA Political Scientist says Newt Gingrich is Biggest Threat to Obama (video here) It's open deli season.  "Their actions in the last five hours is a campaign that is panicking." Who needs the rednecks: "In South Carolina exit polls, Romney wins only the “moderate or...

It's really no surprise. As Mitt Romney has faltered from inevitability to modest favorite, a chorus of pro-Romney voices in the media and Republican Party is insisting that if Newt is the nominee, we not only lose the presidency we also lose the House and...

A work in progress all night. Post links in comments if you have suggestions. Dr. Newtlove: Newtolean BonaMuffin: Hide the sharp objects: We are all commies now: Revenge is a dish best served in South Carolina: Dumb rednecks don't read The NY Daily News and didn't know that Newt's just a "woman on the verge...
