Let us get ready for the next primaries as the contest move west. The Republican presidential campaign has a leader Mitt Romney fresh off the Florida primary victory and Newt Gingrich looking for a new start. There will be a caucuses in Nevada on Saturday. If you missed Ron Paul in Florida he was getting ready for caucuses because he feels that is his strength. This is because the nutty delegates for Paul drive everyone crazy they vote for him just to get away. Next Tuesday we get a double header of Minnesota and Colorado and them it is back across the country to Maine the following weekend. There is going to be a change in strategy, Newt went in Florida of a South Carolina win he pulled even with Mitt Romney and we felt that after Florida is could be Newt moving to clinch the nomination. Then something happened Newt went negative calling Mitt Romney names and making comparisons to President Obama. When mix in two terrible debate performances and a new Mitt Romney getting battle tested from being attacked looking stronger. When Sunday rolled around the polls were saying it was not even going to be close and a double digit win for Romney. There is a lesson here but we are not sure that Newt will be able to see or too proud to change.

Time to move GOP west
Wednesday, February 1st, 2012Mitt Romney made $21M in 2010 without working
Tuesday, January 24th, 2012So when we told you that the lame streamer we going to pull out the old playbook on Mitt Romney it is clear that he saw it coming as well. One of the knocks on Mitt is he has been running for president for six years. This might be true and if that was the case he has thought of every angle. It should not have come as a surprise when he released his tax returns that it was more about the numbers then the rate. The facts are he made $21M in 2010, we will not get into his investments make as more money than the Yankees are paying Alex Rodriquez for a whole season. The two big numbers are he pays $3M in taxes and donated another $3M. This we say is going to be more than anyone else in the field but it still can draw ire. The number you will here is Mitt only pays 14.28% taxes. The bottom line is he is paying three million dollars which in most cases is more than 20 city blocks of taxpayers put together. Here is the other fun fact the lame streamers will not let you think about. To invest the money Mitt had to earn the money and to earn the money he paid taxes on it. None of this matter because all you are going to hear is Mitt only pay 14.28% and the average American pays close to 30%
GOP top 2 turn negative and they must stop
Saturday, December 10th, 2011The GOP race is getting dangerous as we are starting to see the claws come out. This is a bad thing can only help the democrats. We want these candidates to focus on the change they are willing to bring to the nation that will turn it around. We want fresh ideas that have a chance of getting through congress without late night deals and watered down plans. We want the candidates to talk more about what they are going to do and why we should vote for them and less of why we should not vote for the other one. This week we started to see Mitt Romney run at Newt Gingrich and in doing so had to bring reasons not to vote for Newt. When Newt becomes the candidate for president this will be part of what the democrats use against him. We saw Newt go on the offensive calling the Mitt campaign desperate and listing why this makes him a bad leader. This will make the democrats have a new tool in the fight against Mitt. The beginning was all flowers and sweet as these two guys stayed above the fray. They made sure they did not attack in fact most of the time they went out of their way to not attack when being provoked at the debates. The next debate shows Gingrich as the top dog and for the first time Romney on the second spot. We hope this can turn into a battle of ideas each can provide and not a battle that is based in vote for me because the other guy sucks debate.

Mitt Romney goes Tea Party wild
Sunday, September 4th, 2011 Mitt Romney has been running for president for the last six years and he still has no traction. There has to be point when you realize you have reached the end of the rope. This will happen today and in the coming days. When the Tea Party Express rolled through Boston Mitt was no where to be found. Turns out enter Rick Perry and Mitt needs to find a happy medium. The Tea party is having a rally in New Hampshire for the tea party will have an appearance by Mitt. Then on Tuesday another Tea Party even with king maker Jim DeMint. These events all lead up to a debate where Mitt has to put it all on the table. The time has come for him to realize he is not what the GOP is looking for and a loss to President Obama would be at this point almost impossible except if the GOP chooses Mitt. This is harsh might be untrue but there has to be a reason he is not the one chosen and he lost to McCain last time. We like the idea or letting the Tea Party know you are for real and acknowledge they exist is a good start because the road to the white house is paved with tea boxes shattered and thrown into the river.
