Mitt Reveals What ‘It’ Is

by Smitty I admit to having been confused by a certain cryptic utterance for the longest time. Here, for CNN, Mitt lays it out plainly: Success. Prior to this moment, we only had this to go on: If you have it, you don’t need it. If you need it, you don’t have it. If you […]

Romney Busted? No, Obama

by Smitty (via JWF on Twitter) Well, Romney is at least showing interest in being busted: At an event in London, Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney said, “I’m looking forward to the bust of Winston Churchill being in the Oval Office again.” Romney’s trip to Ol’ Blighty might help to explain the attempt to play […]

“We Tried Our Plan And. . .” “We Don’t Have A Definitive Solution. . .We Just Don’t Like Yours”

by Smitty While this new Romney ad is good. . . I think the mail on #OccupyResoluteDesk’s speechifying is better answered by TurboTax Timmy, back in February: It should be increasingly clear to all that, while America is not a failed state, we are under a failed Administration.

A Series Of Substantive Presidential Debates #YouDidntBuildThat

by Smitty Three debates? That’s it? And only one for the Veep? The WSJ, formatting and emphasis from me: The first, which will focus on domestic policy, is set for Oct. 3 at the University of Denver in Denver, Colo., the city that hosted the 2008 Democratic convention.

You didnt tweet that MT @smitty_one_each All conservative bloggers should treat themselves to a daily “You didn’t do that” post. — Jonah Goldberg […]

Is Barack’s “I Didn’t Do That” Reclama Of His 13 July Roanoke Speech Worthy?

by Smitty BHO in Roanoke delivered, after the opening rah-rah, about 5k words. He Who Is Too Cool to release his college documentation had to take to YouTube and deliver this: Emphasis still mine: “Those ads taking my words about small business out of context; they’re flat out wrong. Of course Americans build their own […]

2012 Not The Most Important Election Ever–It’s A Constitutional Referendum

by Smitty You can either give #OccupyResoluteDesk the heave-ho, or PYHBYLAKYAG: Put Your Head Between Your Legs And Kiss Your Arugula Goodbye. If Obama retains any grip on power, the evidence of his disregard for the Rule of Law, Separation of Powers, and the Constitution in general points toward increasing over-reach. A suspension of elections […]

Axelrod’s Nixonian Manipulations: Tax Flap Is About Mitt’s Mormon Millions

Back in March, when the fight for the Republican Party nomination was still very much in doubt, I warned that the “electability” arguments made on behalf of Mitt Romney were apt to be falsified by a liberal media that would not hesitate to make Romney’s Mormonism an issue: If they can’t beat Romney with the […]
