Big Romney News – Important Michigan Endorsements

Its looks like Romney should have a relatively easy time in Michigan, while already leading in the state, Romney has picked up the endorsements of the GOP chairmnen of the three largest counties in Michigan (Wayne, Macomb, and my home county of Oakland). This means that the chairmen representing about 1/2 of Republicans in Michigan [...]

Looking Ahead

Now that I am back from my Memorial Day vacation, it is time to start looking ahead to the summer. As it currently stands, the next week and a half could see lighter blogging. It is just about the end of the school year, and I have exam-related stuff to take care of. I’m not [...]

POLL ALERT: Romney Passes McCain, Brownback Ahead in Kansas

Two poll alerts for you today, as my first post-vacation update. One is big, the other, not so much.
Firstly, and most importantly, Romney is now ahead of McCain in the national polls. It looks like immigration is hitting McCain hard. He has suffered a big drop in the last two weeks, at the same time, [...]

On Vacation

It’s Memorial Day Weekend, and I am traveling to Georgia for the Weekend to see family and attend an open-house. By the time this post goes up, I will be on the way down, and I have no plans to post until at least Monday. Feel free to use this as an open post to [...]

Uninformed Voters

Unfortunately, I will fall just under a year short of being old enough to vote in the 2008 Presidential Election (beleive me, I am not happy about this). Today, I had the chance to ask one of my friends who does not have this problem who he was planning to vote for. The ensuing conversation [...]

It Looks Like Thompson Will Enter

Until now, I have been doubtful about  Fred Thompson entering the Presidential race. Now, it seems like he will enter in July. To be totally honest, I am not as concerned about Fred Thompson as I was when he first talked about running. I just don’t see Thompson being able to stop Mitt Romney’s momentum, [...]

Forget “Amnesty”, No Legalization period

I am willing to concede that the current immigration bill is not, by definition, amnesty. It is however, legalization for illegal aliens – and that, no matter what you call it, is wrong. What the current Congress is trying to do is the equivalent of allowing a bank robber to keep his steal – as [...]

Does Fred Have a Chance?

You hear alot of buzz about Fred Thompson, about how he is a “true conservative”, about how he is a “Reagan Conservative”, how he is the savior of the GOP, and about how he will swoop in an win the nomination with ease and win in a landslide against Hillary. However, as more facts about [...]

POLL ALERT: Romney Cements Iowa Lead – Ahead 12%

Romney has been doing well in the early primary states, even if he is not yet polling highly in the national polls. The first signs of Romeny’s “mittmentum” in Iowa came in late March when he polled inside the margin of error for the first time. He took the lead for the first time just [...]

Tancredo for “Secretary of Immigration”

Of all the things we have departments and secretaries for, Immigration is not one of them. For one of the most important issues in this country today, the issue that has drawn millions of people to rallies on both sides of the issue, there is not a designated cabinet position. Immigration is a tangled mess, [...]
