Sarah Palin Says She Is "Game" For Another Run For Office
Post Date: 2012-02-16 14:02:49 by Brian S

Fox News analyst Sarah Palin hinted Wednesday that it is not too late for her to get into the Republican presidential contest. Asked in an interview if she would be interested in jumping in the race if there is no clear winner by the time Republicans gather this summer for their nominating convention, Palin said she would "do whatever I could to help." Fox Business interviewer Eric Bolling asked about the possibility of a so-called "brokered convention" in Tampa, Florida, in August -- a scenario many consider unlikely. Palin told Bolling she thinks "it could get to that," and if it does "all bets are off." The former Alaska governor, who has made ...
Maine Democrats Celebrate Special Election ‘Repudiation’ Of GOP
Post Date: 2012-02-16 13:08:37 by Brian S

The Maine Democratic Party on Wednesday hailed their victory in the state Senate District 20 special election as a repudiation of the Republican’s agenda. Democrat Chris Johnson won the special election on Tuesday against Republican Dana Dow. The district has been controlled by Republicans since 2004, when it was reapportioned. “Last night’s victory was a repudiation of the Republicans and their out of touch agenda,” said Ben Grant, chairman of the Maine Democratic Party. “Right now Mainers are worried about jobs, putting food on the table and keeping money in their pockets. After a year of Republican control they realize that Democrats are the ones ready to take ...
Romney’s Auto Bailout Shift May Be Liability
Post Date: 2012-02-16 12:36:11 by Brian S

In 2008, Mitt Romney campaigned for president in Michigan decrying Washington’s disregard for lost automobile industry jobs. Ten months later, after he had left the race, the Detroit native advocated that the government let General Motors Co. (GM) and Chrysler Group LLC go bankrupt rather than extend a federal bailout -- a course that a bipartisan chorus of elected officials, including Michigan’s Republican Governor Rick Snyder, say would have been fatal for the U.S. automotive industry, leading to massive job losses. Now, Romney takes credit for recommending a version of the restructuring that turned around the now-thriving car companies. GM today announced earnings of $9.19 ...
Santorum: Birth Control ‘Harmful To Women’

Yesterday I speculated on some of the reasons Rick Santorum has problems with women voters. This interview from 2006 sure isn’t going to help For starters, does he realize that <i>married</i> women (men too!) use birth control? The impression that Santorum finds the prevalent practice of birth control “harmful to women” is, frankly, mind-numbing. If he meant to focus on teen sexual promiscuity, he surely could have, and thereby might have sounded less out of touch.</p> Now, he qualifies his religious views by saying he doesn’t vote against contraception “because it’s not the taking of a human life” (in other contexts he has emphasized ...

Romney Under Pressure to Check Santorum Momentum in Must-Win Michigan Race

For Mitt Romney and Rick Santorum, Michigan may be their political Gettysburg. If Romney loses in his native state, where his father was governor, it would be a defeat from which he might not recover. The makeup of the Republican electorate, which is likely to be one-third Catholic and opposed to abortion, will help Santorum offset the allegiance Romney draws from supporters who delivered his 2008 presidential primary win over John McCain. Anything short of a win in the Feb. 28 primary would be an embarrassment for Romney’s presidential ambitions. “It would be a huge disappointment to Romney if he doesn’t win this state by a substantial margin,” said Bill Ballenger, ...

Sunday marked the 203rd birthday of the 16th President of the United States, The Great Emancipator: Abraham Lincoln. Lincoln Liked Racial Inequality Lincoln is a President who many Americans hold in great esteem, and many take a peculiar notion from their earliest school lectures: Lincoln ended slavery and preserved the Union in doing so. This is false.

President Obama Holds A Significant Lead Over Each Of His Potential Republican Opponents In The General Election

President Obama holds a significant lead over each of his potential Republican opponents in the general election, according to a poll released Tuesday by CBS News and the New York Times. That includes Mitt Romney, who was even with Mr. Obama last month. The new survey shows the president leading Romney by six points, 48 percent to 42 percent, among registered voters. Last month, the two men were tied at 45 percent each. Mr. Obama's lead over former Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum, who has surged to a lead in national polls, is eight points: 49 percent to 41 percent. Romney's drop in support against the president is attributable to a shift among independents. Last month, ...

SOUTH EL MONTE, Calif. - Coming off several disappointing primary performances, Newt Gingrich said Monday he's not dropping out -- but that he is retooling how he campaigns. Gingrich brushed aside a call from the conservative National Review to quit the race to make room for Rick Santorum, saying it has called for him to abandon his campaign in the past. Santorum, for his part, has not called for Gingrich to abandon his bid. The former House speaker said he has decided he's at his best when he focuses on problems and solutions and not on attacking his opponents. During his speech here, he avoided any mention of Santorum or front-runner Mitt Romney. Special Section: Campaign 2012 ...

The Obama campaign is to “educate” and deploy what it describes as “truth teams” to ensure that any attacks on the president’s record are feverishly countered in the run up to the general election. ABC News reports that teams of Obamanoids will be launched initially in 13 “swing states,” including Iowa, Michigan, New Hampshire, New Mexico, North Carolina, Wisconsin, Arizona, Colorado, Florida, Minnesota, Nevada, Ohio and Virginia. “The goal is to ensure that when Republicans attack President Obama’s record, grassroots supporters can take ownership of the campaign and share the facts with the undecided voters in their lives,” the campaign ...

Republican presidential candidates Rick Santorum, Mitt Romney, and Newt Gingrich have all told the group Morality in Media that they would enforce federal obscenity laws that prohibit the distribution of pornography. Those laws, the anti-pornography group said, are being ignored by the current administration. “Federal obscenity laws should be vigorously enforced,” Santorum told the group. “If elected President, I will appoint an Attorney General who will do so.” Romney told the group it was “imperative that we cultivate the promotion of fundamental family values.” “This can be accomplished with increased parental involvement and enhanced supervision of ...

The Standard & Poor’s 500 Index’s biggest rally to start a year since 1991 is coinciding with a 15 percent increase in President Barack Obama’s re-election odds, showing growing investor confidence in the U.S. economy. The benchmark gauge for American shares has climbed as much as 7.5 percent in 2012, the most in 21 years, as unemployment fell and Federal Reserve Chairman Ben S. Bernanke vowed to keep interest rates near zero through 2014, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. The cost of a bet paying $10 should Obama win another term rose to $6 on Feb. 10 from $5.20 on Jan. 1 and below even money in November at Dublin-based bookmaker Intrade. “A better economy ...

Five losing contests later, Gingrich and Winning Our Future, an outside political action committee supporting him, are almost silent on television airwaves, offering free water and coffee at events, and revamping a fundraising strategy based largely on the support of a single wealthy backer, Sheldon Adelson and the Las Vegas casino owner’s family.

A brightening economic picture is improving President Barack Obama’s re-election prospects even as the pace of the nation’s recovery from financial crisis remains a vulnerability for his campaign. Public approval of Obama’s performance in office in the Gallup Organization’s daily tracking poll climbed to its highest level since last June just days after the unemployment rate dropped to 8.3 percent, the lowest in almost three years. Announcement of the unemployment figures “appears to be the proximate cause” for the uptick in Obama’s job approval rating, which has been rising for weeks in concert with a series of favorable economic reports, Frank Newport, ...

The Plan is working. Mitt Romney's biggest backer didn't want him to win. We know that Paul "The Vulture" Singer, Romney's Daddy Warbucks, organized the "grassroots" campaign to replace Romney with Gov. Chris Christie back in September. That flopped, so Singer and the billionaire boys' club that courted Christie moved over to Romney. Not that they had a choice. They knew Moonrocks Gingrich, who thinks he's running for Master Jedi, and Saint Santorum who thinks he's running for pope, would end up road kill in November. But despite their million-dollar checks for Romney's campaign, the billionaires are handling the ex-governor with very long ...

WASHINGTON — US President Barack Obama has overwhelming support from American voters for his use of drone strikes against terror suspects and his planned troop drawdown in Afghanistan, a poll found Wednesday. Obama, who signed off on the US special forces raid which killed Osama bin Laden last year, also enjoys a wide edge over his likely Republican election foe Mitt Romney on national security and foreign policy, the poll showed. Eighty-three percent of those asked in the Washington Post/ABC News survey said they backed Obama’s use of unmanned drone aircraft against terror suspects, which have caused disquiet among some civil liberties groups.

Mitt Romney’s trifecta of losses this week to Rick Santorum exposes lingering questions about his campaign strategy, his appeal to the Republican conservative base and his changing positions on such issues as abortion rights and immigration. That doesn’t mean he won’t win his party’s presidential nomination. With 15 primaries and caucuses scheduled during the next month, Santorum and Romney’s two other rivals in the Republican race have yet to show they can turn momentum into the millions of dollars needed to run simultaneous campaigns across the country. So far, only Romney has the money and manpower for the long haul -- even though he’s won fewer than half ...

Rick Santorum shook up the race for the Republican presidential nomination by sweeping three contests yesterday, casting doubt on front-runner Mitt Romney’s hold over the party’s core voters. Santorum beat Romney by 30 percentage points in Missouri’s non-binding primary, where former U.S. Speaker Newt Gingrich wasn’t on the ballot. He topped his nearest competitor in Minnesota’s caucuses, U.S. Representative Ron Paul of Texas, by 18 points, with Romney placing third. He beat Romney in Colorado by five points. The results suggest a lingering weakness for Romney, especially among the most conservative Republicans who are focused on issues such as banning abortion. ...

Santorum also won Missouri's primary, a nonbinding vote that carries no delegates but gives the former senator some bragging rights. Santorum's twin victories are his first since his narrow win in Iowa's leadoff caucuses in January. Colorado also was holding Republican caucuses Tuesday night and its results were still undecided.

President Barack Obama, who has decried the influence of outside groups in politics, is now encouraging his top donors to contribute to the independent political action committee backing his re-election. “With so much at stake, we can’t allow for two sets of rules in this election whereby the Republican nominee is the beneficiary of unlimited spending and Democrats unilaterally disarm,” campaign manager Jim Messina wrote in an e-mail to supporters last night. Campaign officials said the decision was made after they’ve seen the Republicans’ so-called Super-PACs emerge as the dominant spending force in the early primary states.

Mitt Romney sought to fend off an added challenge in the Republican presidential race, opening a coordinated assault against Rick Santorum to combat the potential for a drawn-out nomination contest. Amid signs that Santorum could make a strong showing in tonight’s Minnesota caucuses, Romney’s campaign turned its attention from Newt Gingrich, long seen as its toughest rival, and set its sights on the former Pennsylvania senator who won Iowa’s party caucuses. In an interview on a local Minnesota radio station, Romney accused Santorum of increasing government spending by allocating federal funds for local projects known as earmarks. “His approach was not ...
