If You Think Mitt Romney Is ‘Electable’ …

. . . just wait. Maybe you’re right. But if you’re right, why are liberals so eager to have Romney as the Republican nominee? Maybe you think George Stephanopoulos is stupid?

Not-Mitt Protest Vote Registered In VA

by Smitty The Virginia GOP needs a personality transplant. 400 years on into the existence of the state, we have a GOP so sclerotic as to serve up one vote with a choice of two candidates. I was the only one in the room, and outnumbered 6:1 by poll workers. Way to excite people about […]

Chris Moody and Steven Crowder with Crowder’s haawwtt fianceé, Hillary, at the Santorum event in Grand Rapids, Tuesday, Feb. 28, 2012 “Another Wednesday morning, another hotel room, another grim bout with the TV Morning News . . .

I Guess Alameda County Supervisor Nadia Lockyer Is A Democrat?

by Smitty When you’ve been this craven and this biased for this long, the default assumption is that any public figure experiencing ‘life difficulties’ must be a Democrat.

REPUBLICAN PRIMARY RESULTS HQ: Michigan and Arizona Vote Tonight
