Michigan: A Republican Waterloo?

Posted: February 28, 2012 in Uncategorized

If Rick Santorum wins tonight, Michigan may forever be known as the place the Republican Party went to die – a political Waterloo. A Santorum win, in a *must* win state for Romney, would be the clearest sign to date that the conservative coalition within the Republican Party is coming apart at the seams.  Rick [...]

DVR Alert – Red Eye tonight!

Posted: February 22, 2012 in Uncategorized

Set your DVRs – or stay up way past a reasonable bed time – to see me on Fox News Red Eye at 3 am tonight/tomorrow morning.  Totally stoked that GOProud Advisory Council member and Fox News contributor Margaret Hoover will be rocking the leg chair tonight!

Unfortunately, I cannot in good conscience do [...]

Santorum has certainly made a strong play for the take us back to the 18th century crowd with his talk of the dangers of contraception and his support for giving states the right to criminalize gay sex.  And given the large populations of Amish in the key swing states of Pennsylvania and Ohio, you might [...]

As Romney and Santorum duke it out to see who can be less appealing to anyone with a sex life, or a social life for that matter, I am thinking no matter who ends up winning the nomination that Adam Ant might be a good addition to this year’s Republican National Convention.

For the last two months, I have said that Mitt Romney is the only Republican candidate with the national infrastructure and the money to win the GOP nomination.  As recently as last week, I told CNN that there was no real horse race here – that Romney will be the nominee.  To quote Chevy Chase [...]

In an election that should be about jobs and the economy, even considering nominating Rick Santorum is like hiring a plumber to fix your car.  Santorum is not a fiscal conservative, has an economic “plan” that could be borrowed from John Edwards, and proudly proclaims that we don’t need a CEO in the White House.
