Does anyone else wonder if Mitt Romney is starting to feel like the last kid always picked in a neighborhood pick-up game of football? We went through Bachmann, Perry, Cain, and it seems we may be sending Gingrich back to the bench for the new kid Rick Santorum. Yet, there stands Mitt Romney, all alone in front of everyone, pretending not to notice that everyone else is looking everywhere but at him hoping some other kid is going to round the corner and save them from having to pick him Continue reading
Now that the Florida Primary is over and we have seen how effective a carpet bombing campaign of negative ads can be, I thought it would be interesting to see exactly who provided the ammunition to each of the combatants. By ammunition I mean money, lots of money. I expected to see what we all knew to be true; Romney has the run of a well-stocked military base’s ammo dump, Newt Gingrich is a kid in the back yard who found his dads stash of illegal firecrackers.

To whomever this may concern
It’s been a relationship that has been on the skids since 2010. I tried to make it work, but after I saw that I was the only one making any concessions in our waning relationship I realized that you no longer considered our relationship worth saving. Instead of wasting each other’s time let me just pack up my vote and get the hell out of here. Goodbye Republican Party. It was fun while it lasted. Continue reading
If Ann Coulter’s frantic unhinged rants on Bill O’Reilly’s and Sean Hannity’s show are any indication of Team Romney’s current mood and moral, Florida is Mitt Romney’s Alamo. Continue reading
I have just finished reading and article written by C.Edmund Wright titled ”Psst: Hear the Roar and Pay Attention”. An excellent piece which basically points out the total disconnect of the Republican Establishment and the conservative base. Here was the clincher for me: Continue reading
Get familiar with the names BCIP Associates III Cayman and Sankaty High Yield Asset Investors Ltd. If Romney is the Republican nominee they will become a household names. Why? Let me explain.
BCIP Associates III Cayman and Sankaty High Yield Asset Investors Ltd are basically nothing more then P.O. boxes in Bermuda and the Grand Cayman Island. The number of words in the names of these companies is greater then the total sum of employees on the payroll. Continue reading
There is a good way to make money and a not so good way to make money. Both are legal. Venture Capitalist, and Vulture Capitalist. The idea of one is to profit by backing a new venture early and profiting off it as it grows. The other is scouting out a failing company that has three ways to pay off: Continue reading
Let us get down to the bottom of this pom-pom waiving for Mitt Romney. The “Republican Establishment” knows the support for Mitt Romney is weak and tenuous at best. They need this to be a “Big Win” for Romney not because Iowa is important, hell none of the votes actually count from Tuesday, they are non-binding. They are really setting up the win in New Hampshire to be more significant than that will actually be as well. Continue reading
If Romney wins Iowa, so what?
Mitt Romney and his supporters are already dancing around a swirling football in the Iowa end zone and they haven’t even made it into the locker room to change out of their street clothes yet. Don’t get me wrong, they could still win but so what? Newt Gingrich made a good point. Continue reading
Manchester, NH- A scene of broken chairs, bandages,a high heeled womans shoe, and a bloody nose ring lay among ripped and damaged Romney campaign memorabilia strewn before me. The Paramedics who attend the physically wounded and parapsychologist who helped those who will forever be scarred by memories of this dreadful day in New Hampshire are gone now. All that remains is the carnage and clean up crews. Continue reading
