Heartbreaking news for the political world.  Boob inflation is the scourge of the 21st century.

The news from Wisconsin is that Romney’s super-PAC is repeating its tactic from Iowa, Florida, Michigan, Ohio and Illinois — carpet-bombing the state with TV attack ads on its chief rival.

Maybe if Rick had some of the money people threw away on Newt, but …

Well, “spilled milk” and all that, eh?

At least Miss Wilkinson is being honest and forthright!

But he’ll keep taking away votes.

Newt’s merely becoming more selective in his audience… http://tinyurl.com/7gkmeqy

 Hmmm, so those folks who donated to Newt spent their money badly, and you know how they could have spent it better?

Who sounds like Obama now?

 And falling over frontwards to do it!

 At least he was honest about it.  Erick Erickson still claims he never endorsed anyone in this cycle, which is true only if you take the Paulistas’ version of what constitutes a declaration of war to it.  Did he understand the Perry tattoo doesn’t come off?

The conservatives haven’t “coalesced” around Santorum any more than they did for Bachmann, Perry, Cain, or Gingrich.  People were LOOKING for a candidate, Santorum was lucky to be the last man in the room.  The last Not Romney.

And the wacko fringe folks aside, most of the Not Romney vote isn’t an “anti-Romney” vote so much as an “Aw, crap, you telling me Romney is the best we got?” vote. 

Santorum’s a good guy, steadfast on social and foreign policy issues, moderate conservative on fiscal issues, no executive experience.   His support isn’t so much personal as a protest.  He won’t be a contender in 2016 or 2020 or ever unless he becomes a Governor in between and does well.  Had there been another candidate left to turn to, he probably wouldn’t have been this time.

Romney only ‘carpet-bombed’ Flordia. In every other state, Romney heavily outspent his opponents because they pretty much didn’t spend anything. Romney’s absolute spending was not extravagant, and any serious competitor would have been able to match it.

You need to ask yourself why people have voted for Newt instead of Santorum in all these contests, including where Newt didn’t even campaign.  Do you suppose they were unaware he had no chance?  Why would Newt supporters, if their main concern were stopping Romney, not have voted for Santorum in Ohio, Michigan, Illinois, etc.?

The Gingrich voters aren’t automatic for Santorum – in the states where the “second choice” question was asked, the Newt voters split evenly in Michigan and Ohio, 80-20 for Santorum in Alabama and Mississippi. 

Are people who are sticking with a candidate on his third marriage who was adulterous in his first two and was reprimanded for official conduct going to automatically vote for a guy who’s against condoms and gambling?

I didn’t realize Alan Grayson floated.

Worse, if he’s the boob I’m counting on saving me, leave me to my watery grave and just get it over with.

I never thought Newt was in this thing to become the President.  He knew he had some money, and he knew he could inject some ideas into the campaign.  He probably thought after South Carolina he had an honest shot, but I really doubt that he was counting on it.  Just as I doubt he’s really counting on a brokered convention like so many keep claiming.

So expect him to stay in.  He’ll get to address the convention during prime time for his efforts, I’m betting.

Besides, it’s fun watching Newt beat up Obama and occasionally, Romney.

 I need some community service to help me find out what color her eyes are.  I’m starting to think this is one of those trick pictures.  I tried like, ten times to figure out what color, and I still don’t know.

Or if she has eyes.

DJMcT: I went off on the campaign trail in August, to cover the run-up to the Ames Straw Poll, when Herman Cain and Rick Santorum were down near the bottom of the polls. By mid-October, Cain was at the top. By early December, Cain was gone and Gingrich was on top. Santorum won the Iowa caucus Jan. 3, and Gingrich won the South Carolina primary on Jan. 21. By the time Florida was over, Romney was back on top, and Newt was gibbering about “money power” and Goldman Sachs.

When I caught up with Santorum again at CPAC, he had won the Feb. 7 “trifecta,” while Newt had lost Nevada. I watched the Feb. 22 Arizona debate from my sister-in-law’s house in Ohio, en route to Michigan, where I got kicked out of Romney’s state headquarters, saw Herman Cain in Troy, went to Hell, saw Mitt with Kid Rock, and was with Santorum in Grand Rapids when the vote came in. I saw Santorum again in Steubenville for the election results on Super Tuesday, then went down to Louisiana last week.

Maybe you didn’t follow all that campaign coverage, but it was a hell of a lot more than “shilling” and “slamming.” It was an epic tragedy, is what it was, and the collapse of Gingrich merely fulfills his destiny, a fate I foretold many months ago. Now we’re down to a slender chance to stop Mitt Romney and this burden — the last hope of the conservative movement – rests entirely on the shoulders of Rick Santorum, who is being buried by Mitt’s attack ads in Wisconsin.

Perhaps this isn’t interesting to you, but I find it pretty doggone fascinating, and we’ve had something upwards of 300,000 page-views this month, so I guess there are others who like it, too.

She is a pretty girl…but my prediction is it does not end well.  

 Oh, I see a happy ending, all right . . .

 Newt backed off slowly, subtly, almost as if he were pursuing a marketing strategy – which he was.  All along, only being distracted by the attention when his turns at “frontrunner” came and went.

 Thanks, that helps a lot.  But in the interest of full disclosure,  I was an insufferable bastard long before I fell in with the Romney camp.

If I have at some point(s) responded to you unartfully, please accept my apology.  It was probably just a knee-jerk reaction on my part to something you posted which was very stupid.  To avoid such misunderstandings in the future, be a love and try not to sound a complete idiot.

 In a classic display of a Mitten’s grasp on real world detail, Adjoran does not realize that breast implants don’t float…

Shilling and slamming it indeed has been. You can be a credible reporter or a committed campaigner, but you can’t be both.

 The proliferation of hydraulic boobage is a sign of The End Times.

 -the last hope of the conservative movement-

Oh bullshit Stacy, are you serious? Do really honestly believe the ultimate fate of the conservative movement rests on whether or not Mitt Romney can be stopped, by RICK SANTORUM of all people?

If you really believe that its no wonder you act so damn desperate.

No, the fate of the conservative movement rests on the shoulders of conservative voters and its not going to meet its doom over the result of any one election cycle.

I remember after 2008, a lot of people wrote the obituary of the Republican Party and the conservative movement, saying in order to survive the GOP would have to move to the center. Then a little thing called the Tea Party happened followed by 2010.

You need to have yourself checked for clinical depression.
