Why Mitt Romney Will Prove To Be a Feeble Presidential Nominee by Michael Tomasky Jan 15, 2012 7:15 PM EST Mitt’s getting hammered in the “King of Bain” attack ad, but that’s just the tip of the proverbial iceberg. Michael Tomasky on why Romney will be stunningly weak in November. This weekend, social conservative leaders from around the country are gathering in Texas (where else?) to see if they can coalesce around a Mitt Romney alternative. That will wrap up Saturday. The next day, the Tea Party groups of South Carolina will convene in Myrtle Beach to, uh, see if they can coalesce around a Mitt Romney alternative. A week ago, all these people seemed like cranky sore ...

Back to Google News Campaign officials: Huntsman to quit GOP race Jon Huntsman will withdraw Monday from the race for the Republican presidential nomination, campaign officials told The Associated Press on Sunday.

The campaign officials spoke on condition of anonymity because Huntsman plans to make the official announcement Monday. The former Utah governor placed third in last week's New Hampshire primary despite devoting most of his campaign resources to the state. He had already acknowledged that ...

The four candidates challenged the state's residency requirements for those ...

What If Elections Don't Matter?

What if Democrats and Republicans were two wings of the same bird of prey? What if elections were actually useful tools of social control? What if they just provided the populace with meaningless participation in a process that validates an establishment that never meaningfully changes? What if that establishment doesn't want and doesn't have the consent of the governed? What if the two-party system was actually a mechanism used to limit so-called public opinion? What if there were more than two sides to every issue, but the two parties wanted to box you in to one of their corners? What if there's no such thing as public opinion, because every thinking person has opinions that ...

Romney Says His Work at Bain Is Like Obama’s Auto Industry Bailout by Dr. Susan Berry 1/10/2012 According to The Hill, in a CBS This Morning interview, New Hampshire Republican primary winner Mitt Romney, said that his work to increase profits for his investment firm, Bain Capital, “was no different from the Obama administration’s auto industry bailouts.” Mr. Romney said: 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 and thousands of workers – he did it to try to save the business. Mr. Romney’s comments came in response to ...

Bain Capital Owns Clear Channel (Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Glenn Beck, Michael Savage, Etc.)

Bain Capital Owns Clear Channel (Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Glenn Beck, Michael Savage, Etc.) Wouldn't it be great if a Republican presidential candidate could just buy the support of just about every major conservative talk show host in America? Well, it may not be as far-fetched as you may think. Clear Channel owns more radio stations (850) than anyone else in the United States. They also own Premiere Radio Networks, the company that syndicates the radio shows of Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, and Glenn Beck, among others. Needless to say, Clear Channel basically owns conservative talk radio in the United States. So who owns Clear Channel? Well, it turns out that Bain Capital is one ...

CAMPAIGN 2012 Apparent Google Glitch Shows New Hampshire Primary Results Updated: January 10, 2012 | 9:08 a.m. January 10, 2012 | 7:03 a.m. An apparent Tuesday morning glitch had Google displaying results -- with 100 percent of precincts reporting -- for Tuesday's New Hampshire primary. The results, sourced to the Associated Press and displayed alongside searches for GOP hopefuls Mitt Romney and Buddy Roemer (and presumably others), showed front-runner Mitt Romney coming in sixth place, behind Newt Gingrich, Rick Santorum, Ron Paul, Jon Huntsman and Michele Bachmann, who ended her campaign after last week's Iowa caucuses. Romney has consistently led polls by a wide margin. ...

FRIENDLY FIRE GOP bad blood Pat Buchanan: Republican candidates' circular firing squard plays into Dems' script Published: 4 hours ago by Patrick J. Buchanan There still exists a possibility that, come Jan. 20, 2013, we could have a Republican Senate and House, and a Republican president. But there is also a possibility that a Goldwater-Rockefeller-type family bloodletting could sunder the party and kick it all away. America is bored with Barack Obama. The young and the minorities are still with him but exhibit none of the excitement or enthusiasm of 2008. Moreover, we have been through three years of 23-25 million unemployed or underemployed. Our national debt is now larger ...

Millions of us are tired of the status quo. As proof of that, those of you who are trying to unseat Obama by your crooked vote counting in the primary elections, the fraudulent republican candidates you and your owned media are pushing to get the nomination, and the constant shameful treatment of Ron Paul, spells 4 more years of Obama. That should make John bonner really shed some real tears. How do I make this prediction? The millions of us who have been supporting Ron Paul with our donations and volunteering for Ron Paul will never ever vote for one of your fascist candidates again and help elect the ' lesser of two evils'. Instead many won't vote at all and others of us will ...

The Year Corporations Lose Personhood‏

We need the U.S. Constitution amended to state what its original framers considered too obvious to include: human rights are only for humans. Let's work hard to make 2012 the year in which corporations are stripped of the legal personhood that makes it legal for them to buy elections and politicians. There’s good news: Last week, Montana's Supreme Court upheld a ban on corporate election spending. Los Angeles and New York have just joined the list of cities urging the rest of the country to join Montana. And several bills have been introduced in Congress to amend the Constitution.

Poster Comment:Four YouTube channels of "Jon Huntsman's Values" videos with copies of the description info for each: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tZeVqj-t1U0 Uploaded by NHLiberty4Paul on Jan 4, 2012 [My note: One day after the Iowa Caucus] Ron Paul is the only authentic conservative in this race, and the only one capable of bringing authentic change to Washington. He is the only sole alternative to flip-floppers responsible for the costly mistakes of the past. Jon Huntsman claims to be a conservative - claims to love America - but the real story is his true values and whom his love is really for. It is time for a return to constitutional government - not for a ...

The New Hampshire Gazette: Chickenhawk Hall of Shame

Chickenhawk Hall of Shame When an American male (or an especially belligerent female) makes the challenging transition from late adolescence into early adulthood, he is faced with many decisions. One certain, specific combination of choices will result in his becoming a chickenhawk: choosing to “support” war, while also choosing not to serve in the military. His motto becomes: “Let’s you and him go fight; I’ll hold your coat.” Depending on external circumstances, such an individual may become one of three varieties of chickenhawk: • If there is no draft, and the nation is at peace, the individual becomes a Common Chickenhawk; • If there is a ...

* DECLARATIONS * JANUARY 7, 2012 Romney Wins but Takes a Beating The Republican battle has begun. It's especially intensive this year. By PEGGY NOONAN Mitt Romney's victory in Iowa is underappreciated. It was a well-run campaign and no one thought the day of the Ames straw poll, in August, that it would happen. The victory of Rick Santorum is a pundit-humbler: No one saw that coming even six weeks ago, except perhaps Mr. Santorum. The Iowa results almost perfectly reflect the Republican Party, which, roughly speaking, is split into three parts—libertarians, social conservatives and moderate conservatives, who went for Ron Paul, Mr. Santorum and Mr. Romney respectively. ...
