…ce that can offer the “bold contrast” that Santorum so desperately seeks to be… and it is not Speaker Newt Gingrich. In fact, it’s the only person left in the race that hasn’t worked a day in Washington D.C. It is Governor Mitt Romney. By contrast Santorum’s big government ways, Romney cut 341 government programs, vetoed the Democrat legislature 877 times in four years, turned a deficit into a surplus, did not raise taxes, and took his state f…

…To paraphrase one of his sayings, “We are the ones we have been waiting for.” Between Edwards and Obama, I can’t remember any politicians who could match either for narcissism in modern times. This brings me to a story about Mitt Romney. This man has been running for President for five years and yet this story seems to have been missed by everyone. A family boat sprang a leak and the family members along with their family dog ended up struggl…

“Suppose the presidential election were held today. If Barack Obama were the Democratic Party’s candidate and Mitt Romney were the Republican Party’s candidate, who would you vote for Barack Obama, the Democrat or Mitt Romney, the Republican?” Gallup asked this question last week to 2,200 registered voters and 46% of the respondents chose Romney to 45% that chose Obama. It’s an ominous warning to Obama since the results…

Saturday Night Live (SNL) is a late night sketch comedy show intended to attract the 18-to-34 age demographic. Once the impressionable viewers are tuned in, it works tirelessly to make Republicans like George W. Bush, Sarah Palin, Dick Cheney, John McCain, Michele Bachmann, Newt Gingrich, Rick Perry, Rick Santorum and Mitt Romney appear not only stupid, but often evil. Yet, the most recognizable leader of the free world is rarely ever lampoone…

…able of lasting it out.” From Tim Pawlenty, to almost everyone on CNN or Fox, to Romney officials and supporters, and to almost all pundits and bloggers, this has been the message of the last two-three weeks in favor of Mitt Romney. In fact, Romney himself said in the last few days, “Mississippi and Alabama are the last desperate attempts of Santorum’s campaign (paraphrased).” Other than that, I have heard very little po…

Mitt Romney wins primaries in Alaska, Idaho, Massachusetts, Vermont, Virginia and Ohio. Santorum wins Oklahoma, Tennessee and North Dakota. Gingrich wins Georgia with only 47 percent. Both Santorum and Gingrich live in Virginia… and both lost their “home state” to Romney. Virginia is also where Santorum was born, so he also lost his “native state.” Gingrich was born in Pennsylvania, and we will have to wait to …

With Iowa Republicans scheduled to announce the official count from the caucuses later this morning, Mitt Romney appears to be bracing for the possible reversal of his eight-vote victory of Jan. 3. “The results from Iowa caucus night revealed a virtual tie,” Romney said in a statement released this morning. The former Massachusetts governor released the statement after the Des Moines Register reported that “there are too many h…

In 1980, George H.W. Bush was making the same argument against Ronald Reagan that Mitt Romney is making this year. Bush argued that he was the most electable against Jimmy Carter. The big money Republican establishment was behind Bush because they feared that Reagan was too radical to win, and would carry the entire party down to historic defeat, like Goldwater did. Reagan even lost Iowa to Bush on that argument. But Reagan carried forward the p…

The Iowa Caucuses are now behind us and as I look at the results I wonder why a lot of us were so excited about them. Their results have told us nothing most of us didn’t already know. Mitt Romney will be the choice to go against Obama. It also confirmed a lot of us are not very happy with the candidates in general. I also think a lot of us know, unless the United States has a major catastrophe in the next year Mitt Romney will not beat Bara…

…ill passed and, as a result, Wisconsin’s budget was balanced, taxes lowered, and school districts & local governments saved hundreds of millions of dollars without the massive layoffs. Here’s the next prediction: Governor Mitt Romney wins the GOP nomination. Why? Again, simply because of his track record. Okay, it’s not a stretch, but nothing is guaranteed. As it stands right now, Senator Santorum, Governor Romney and Speaker Gingrich hav…
