Elections

“Barack Obama is the poster child for the arrogance of government.” –Mitt Romney at CPAC

Today we are poised for a great victory in November. The pundits and the pollsters tell us we can win this election. But we must tell the nation why we should win. It is up to us to prove that we are truly ready to step forward and lead this country. This election is not just about getting more votes. Defeating Barack Obama is only one step toward our greater goal of saving America.

A Captain. Not Dear Leader.

 The Dalai Lama was alleged to have said "When you lose, don't lose the lesson." Regardless, the lesson is clear: learn from your mistakes. If you never had any mistakes, a presidential primary season is a tough time to learn them. Romney did it. For those who fell apart earlier in the nomination season, most had never lost an election before.

Mitt Romney’s New Hampshire Primary speech

...Our campaign is about more than replacing a President; it is about saving the soul of America. This election is a choice between two very different destinies. President Obama wants to “fundamentally transform” America. We want to restore America to the founding principles that made this country great....

What's going on?!

Newt Gingrich is the talk of the month. Doctor Ron Paul is gaining momentum. Michelle Bachmann is collecting her guns and firing back. Rick Perry...whatever. What a shout! What a fight! And winner is...

The media keeps pushing alternatives to Mitt Romney not only because Democrats are terrified of running against him, but also because they want to keep Republicans fighting, allowing them the luxury to get a four-month jump on us.

Staten Island. Newt Meets His Public

By G. Perry

 

The photograph above is, of course, one of former Speaker of the House and current Republican presidential candidate Newt Gingrich. He was in town to sign his new book, A Nation Like No Other, along with his wife, who has a book of her own. But the most important part of his visit was a town hall forum held in the Hilton Garden Inn in Bloomfield, Staten Island...

Gingrich and Romney. Charisma vs Real Deal.

by Boris Borovoy

 

Newt Gingrich just came to town as self-proclamed conservative alternative. This was just fantastic. No kidding. What a spirit!

He was having an extramarital affair in the middle of Clinton’s impeachment; he was sincerely apologizing to Jesse Jackson for having criticized “poverty pimps,” and then inviting Jackson to a State of the Union address; he was on a global warming commercial with the most notorious democrat Nancy Pelosi...

How to avoid the Point of No Return

By A.Fridman and B.Borovoy

 

Difficult times often produce charismatic leaders, both evil and good. Sometimes it's unclear who's who until the very last moment. The moment of truth. Our current president came into office in the midst of really bad economic times. He promised a lot and expectations were high, but he didn't fit the situation. When the smoke of enthusiasm cleared, most Americans saw that he was obviously unsuited for the gargantuan task at his hands.

A tea party conservative’s defense of Ron Paul…and his supporters

I want to state at the outset that this essay is not intended to be an endorsement of Ron Paul.

I want to state at the outset that this essay is not intended to be an endorsement of Ron Paul. While I respect and admire many of his positions and his fidelity to the constitution, I have strong misgivings about some of his stances on national security. If you could hear the debates between myself and my 20 year old son, a passionate Ron Paul supporter, you would readily accept the sincerity of my disclaimer.
