Allen West Letter: GOP Rep. Reportedly Asked Wife To Be His 'Porn Star', Demanded 'Non-Negotiable' Sex Acts
Post Date: 2012-10-02 14:49:31 by Brian S
6 Comments
U.S. Rep. Allen West (R-FL) reportedly asked his wife to be his "porn star" in a hand-written letter from Iraq in 2003, detailing "non-negotiable" sex acts she was to perform on his return and ordering her to wear only two-piece bathing suits. Former Palm Beach Post and Radar.com staffer Jose Lambiet published some of the contents of the letter on his South Florida site Gossip Extra, arguing the intimate details are news-worthy because the way the Tea Party Congressman relates to women has become an issue in his reelection race. Lambiet said he exclusively obtained the letter written to financial advisor Dr. Angela West, whom the former Army Lt. Colonel married in ...
Allen West's Military Record Attacked In New Ad: 'Faced 11 Years In Prison'

WASHINGTON -- The gloves are officially off in the race between Rep. Allen West (R-Fla.) and his Democratic challenger, Patrick Murphy. Less than a week after West's campaign released a brutal ad featuring Murphy's mugshot from a 2003 arrest for disorderly intoxication, Murphy's campaign hit back on Tuesday with an ad highlighting West's illegal actions in the military that ultimately led to him being relieved of his command. "You need the facts about Allen West in 2003," says the narrator in the Murphy ad, which begins by showing a clip of West's ad from last week. "West was criminally charged with violating the Uniform Code of Military Justice, ...
Judge Halts Pa.'s Tough New Voter Id Requirement

HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) — A judge on Tuesday blocked Pennsylvania's divisive voter identification requirement from going into effect before Election Day, delivering a hard-fought victory to Democrats who said it was a ploy to defeat President Barack Obama and other opponents who said it would prevent the elderly and minorities from voting. The decision by Commonwealth Court Judge Robert Simpson on the law requiring each voter to show a valid photo ID could be appealed to the state Supreme Court. However, Simpson based his decision on guidelines given to him days ago by the high court justices, and it could easily be the final word on the law just five weeks before the Nov. 6 ...
Voter Purge Over Citizen Status Sours Floridians on Republicans
Post Date: 2012-10-02 10:37:10 by Brian S
1 Comments
Florida residents erroneously subjected to a Republican-led effort to purge noncitizens from voter rolls said they’re furious, and several promised to vote against the party’s presidential candidate, Mitt Romney, as a result. In interviews with 35 of the 2,625 people the state moved to prevent from voting, all but two said they’re U.S. citizens, with about a third identifying themselves as Republicans and another third as Democrats. They included a Cuba-born physician, a U.S. Army soldier who served in Afghanistan, an entomologist originally from Canada and a taxi driver from Haiti. The attempt to remove potential noncitizens, led by Republican Governor Rick Scott, may hurt ...
Ross Perot: No 2012 Endorsement
Post Date: 2012-10-01 12:35:50 by Brian S
3 Comments
Ross Perot, the billionaire who shook up the 1992 presidential campaign, has largely remained silent since his emergence on the nation’s political stage nearly two decades ago and as he emerges from the shadows (in part to drum up interest in his forthcoming autobiography), he’s remaining silent about one more thing: the current top candidates running for office. Pressed by USA Today’s Richard Wolf to endorse a candidate, Perot declined, despite the fact that “members of his family have donated almost exclusively to Republicans in recent years.” Perot is an equal-opportunity critic, unimpressed with both President Barack Obama and Mitt Romney when it comes to ...
Republican Split on Akin May Hurt Bid for Senate Control
Post Date: 2012-10-01 11:55:51 by Brian S
0 Comments
As some Republicans close to the anti-tax Tea Party movement rally around Todd Akin’s U.S. Senate bid in Missouri, they are widening a divide in the party that may hobble Republicans’ efforts to take control of the Senate. Presidential nominee Mitt Romney and former George W. Bush political adviser Karl Rove cut off support to Akin after his Aug. 19 assertion that “legitimate rape” rarely causes pregnancy. South Carolina Senator Jim DeMint and former presidential candidates Newt Gingrich and Rick Santorum backed Akin last week as he rejected party leaders’ call to quit the race. DeMint, Gingrich and Santorum say an Akin victory in Missouri is central to ...
Paul Ryan To Fox News: ‘I Don’t Have The Time’ To Explain How We Will Pay For Our Tax Plan

For much of the general election, the Romney campaign has avoided any discussion of specifics, especially when it comes to the tax plan that he and Paul Ryan have put forward. On Fox News Sunday, host Chris Wallace gave Ryan an opportunity to finally talk about the details of his plan to a national audience, how much it will cost and how the Romney administration would pay for it. Instead, Ryan said he didn’t have time to get into the nuts and bolts of the proposal: WALLACE: So how much would it cost? RYAN: It’s revenue neutral… WALLACE: No no, I’m just talking about cuts. We’ll get to the deductions, but the cut in tax rates. RYAN: The cut in tax rates is lowering ...
Mitt Romney Favorability Lower Than George W. Bush, Poll Finds

If Mitt Romney was hoping to distance himself from former President George W. Bush, a new poll has some news that might trouble the Republican presidential nominee: Bush posted higher favorability ratings than Romney. The national survey, conducted by Bloomberg News and released Wednesday, found that Bush received a favorable rating of 46 percent, while Romney's favorable rating was 43 percent. Forty-nine percent of respondents gave Bush an unfavorable rating, compared to 50 percent of respondents who gave Romney an unfavorable rating. Bush's favorability ratings also bested those of the Republican Party at large (41 percent favorable, 46 percent unfavorable) and Vice President ...
Soros Donates $1.5 Million To Pro-Obama Super PACS

George Soros, the liberal billionaire investor who has largely laid low during the 2012 elections, announced $1.5 million in pledged donations Thursday to a trio of super PACs backing President Obama and congressional Democrats, PAC officials said. Soros, who became nationally prominent in 2004 when he spent more than $20 million on independent groups supporting Sen. John Kerry (D-Mass.), will give $1 million to Priorities USA Action — which is supporting Obama — and $500,000 to Majority PAC and House Majority PAC, which are running ads on behalf of Democratic candidates for Congress. The move could signal a softening of resistance by Soros and other wealthy liberals to ...
Gingrich: Obama Only Has To Be ‘Believable’ In Debates To Be Re-Elected

Former Republican presidential candidate Newt Gingrich is setting a low bar for President Barack Obama’s debate performance, saying that he only needs to be “believable” to be re-elected. The former House Speaker on Friday told MSNBC that GOP hopeful Mitt Romney would need a “very strong debate” to even have a chance at the White House. “They’re whistling past the graveyard,” Gingrich said of the Romney campaign. “I think that everybody I’ve talked to agrees that he’s had two and a half very tough weeks. I do agree, I think they started with the Clinton speech [at the Democratic Convention] and then they got compounded by all the ...

Obama Significantly Widens Leads In Major Battleground States

US President Barack Obama has widened his lead in the two main battleground states in the 2012 White House race as well as in Pennsylvania, according to a new opinion poll released Wednesday. The Quinnipiac University/New York Times/CBS News poll put Obama ahead of Republican challenger Mitt Romney 53% to 44% in Florida, 53% to 43% in Ohio and 54% to 42% in Pennsylvania, less than six weeks ahead of the November 6 vote. Florida has the most electoral votes of any of the so-called swing states expected to decide the election, and no Republican has ever become president without winning Ohio. Obama’s favorability rating in all three states was a comfortable 54%, while Romney’s was ...

Republican Mitt Romney’s negative ratings are preventing him from capitalizing on President Barack Obama’s vulnerabilities in the race for the White House, according to a new poll that gives the incumbent a lead heading into the first of three presidential debates. Half of Americans hold an unfavorable view of Romney -- a September high for a presidential challenger in the last three decades. Forty-nine percent of likely voters consider the former Massachusetts governor out of touch, compared with 40 percent who say that of Obama, in the latest Bloomberg National Poll conducted Sept. 21-24. Obama heads into the closing stretch of the race with a majority of Americans -- 53 ...

President Obama has grabbed a significant lead over Mitt Romney in Ohio and holds a slender edge in Florida, according to two new polls by The Washington Post, indicating that there are fresh hurdles in the way of the Republican challenger’s best route to victory in the Electoral College. Among likely voters, Obama is ahead of Romney in Ohio 52 percent to 44 percent. In Florida, the president leads 51 percent to 47 percent, a numerical but not statistically significant edge. Among all registered Florida voters, Obama is ahead by nine percentage points. The new numbers come one week after a Washington Post poll in Virginia showing showed Obama with a clear lead there. More than half of ...

DENVER — Republican election officials who promised to root out voter fraud so far are finding little evidence of a widespread problem.State officials in key presidential battleground states have found only a tiny fraction of the illegal voters they initially suspected existed. Searches in Colorado and Florida have yielded numbers that amount to less than one-tenth of 1 percent of all registered voters in either state.Democrats say the searches waste time and, worse, could disenfranchise eligible voters who are swept up in the checks."I find it offensive that I'm being required to do more than any other citizen to prove that I can vote," said Samantha Meiring, 37, a ...

Republican vice presidential nominee Paul Ryan believes that reversing the repeal of the military ban on gay and lesbian soldiers would be a “step in the wrong direction.” During an interview with WPTV that aired over the weekend, Ryan was asked to weigh in on the one-year anniversary of the repeal of “don’t ask, don’t tell” (DADT). “I talked to a lot of good friends of mine who are combat leaders in the theater, and they just didn’t think the timing of this was right to do this when our troops were in the middle of harm’s way in combat,” the Wisconsin Republican told WPTV’s Alex Sanz. “Now that it’s done, we should not ...

One week before the first debates of the general presidential election, President Barack Obama is targeting rival Mitt Romney for both his comment about 47 percent of Americans paying no taxes becoming “victims” of government dependency and his refusal to release more than two years of his own personal tax returns. The Obama campaign’s ad is airing in Ohio, the one state which has been a must-win for any Republican seeking the White House, and where Obama and running mate Paul Ryan are embarking on a bus tour this week — little more than one week before the first of three televised debates starting on Oct. 3. Obama’s 30-second ad, like another one that the ...

Chris Creech, a website consultant from Chapel Hill, North Carolina, said he’s feeling good enough about his job security and the economy to make an offer to buy his first home. With sales rising at his employer, which develops websites for small businesses, “I feel a little more free to spend money instead of worrying about, ‘Will I have a job?’ ” said Creech, who is 24. Creech’s optimism is reflected in surveys of confidence such as the Bloomberg Consumer Comfort Index, which showed that Americans’ view of the economic outlook climbed to a four-month high in September.

Why The Polls Understate Romney Vote
Post Date: 2012-09-22 16:31:50 by jwpegler
7 Comments
Republicans are getting depressed under an avalanche of polling suggesting that an Obama victory is in the offing. They, in fact, suggest no such thing! Here’s why: 1. All of the polling out there uses some variant of the 2008 election turnout as its model for weighting respondents and this overstates the Democratic vote by a huge margin. In English, this means that when you do a poll you ask people if they are likely to vote. But any telephone survey always has too few blacks, Latinos, and young people and too many elderly in its sample. That’s because some don’t have landlines or are rarely at home or don’t speak English well enough to be interviewed or don’t ...

Rep. Todd Akin’s (R-MO) performance during a Missouri senatorial debate Friday, Ed Schultz said on The Ed Show that evening, was part of a wave of problems more Republican candidates are encountering in the wake of GOP presidential nominee Mitt Romney’s infamous “47 percent” video. While Akin did his best to put his own firestorm — created by his “legitimate rape” remarks earlier this year — behind him by saying the election was really “about two visions about what America is,” Schultz aired clips of his closest competitor, Sen. Claire McCaskill (D-MO), linking it to “other extreme views,” like abolishing the minimum wage and ...

In a presidential race seemingly frozen in place for months, the advantage has shifted toward President Barack Obama after a series of miscues by Mitt Romney, punctuated by the Republican challenger's comments about people who pay no income tax. Despite a continuing gray economic sky and unrest in the Mideast, the president has edged ahead of Romney in polls in some of the most competitive states, including Iowa and Virginia, and forced Romney to redouble efforts in Florida and Ohio, without which he has little chance of becoming president. With about six weeks left before Election Day and early voting under way in some states, Romney faces a problematic map, a ticking clock and a ...

Lansing — President Barack Obama is leading Republican Mitt Romney in Michigan by roughly 9 percentage points, according to a quarterly Michigan State University study released Friday. The study also found Gov. Rick Snyder's popularity has continued to grow and consumer confidence is at its highest level since 2005, though it's changed little in the past year. Snyder's approval ratings increased from 19.3 percent last fall to 33 percent in the current survey. MSU economist Charles Ballard, who conducted the survey, called Snyder's jump in the ratings "a very substantial improvement." The survey found 54 percent of Michiganians believe their financial ...

Paul Ryan drew boos speaking to the AARP by attacking Obamacare and pledging to repeal it. "The first step to a stronger Medicare is to repeal Obbamacare," he said to a shower of jeers. "I had a feeling there would be mixed reaction, so let me get into it. It weakens medicare for today's seniors and puts it at risk for the next generation. First, it funnels $716 billion out of Medicare to pay for a new entitlement we didn't even ask for. Second, it puts 15 unelected bureaucrats in charge of medicare's future." Ryan was booed repeatedly as he continued to attack the bill, especially after he said the law "turned Medicare into a piggy bank for ...
