Understanding why Mitt Romney so decisively won the first presidential debate is as important as the fact that he did. Why? Because once we know the reasons, almost everything about President Barack Obama and this election becomes clear. First, Obama lost because he, like virtually the entire left, lives in a left-wing bubble. Left-wing academics […]

To the millions of Americans unable to find work, to college graduates who can’t get a job and are living with their parents, to the underemployed who are working at jobs far below their skill set and experience, and to those who have given up looking for work altogether, a 7.8 percent unemployment rate is […]

Owning a: PR agency, I am well aware of the impact that media has on public opinion.: : : Too often liberal media is biased against Israel. In the United Kingdom, a non-governmental organization the Press Complaints Commission (PCC) can force media organizations to run corrections. They “administer the system of self-regulation for the press. It does so primarily […]

Many Americans already know Obama tossed: 25 billion dollars: in taxpayer money down a rathole to bail out GM and Chevrolet. That was a bad idea. If the choice had actually been between letting both companies go out of business and losing 25 billion dollars of taxpayer money, we’d have been better off letting both companies get […]

Last week I sent Mitt a note encouraging him not to morph into a McCain-like wuss during the debate. I think he got my email because he Buford Pussered Obama. It was embarrassing. The president looked defeated–head down, busted. The greatest joy I had the night of the debate didn’t come from watching the erudite […]

Wednesday night’s presidential debate in which Mitt Romney shellacked Barack Obama attracted the biggest audience since the debate between Jimmy Carter and Ronald Reagan seven days before the 1980 election. About 70 million Americans watched, a little more than half the 131 million voter turnout in 2008. That’s an estimate, because the ratings companies don’t […]

Oh man, what a week.: My thoughts on the debate: were pretty much in line with every other two-legged creature roaming the Earth, and my reaction to the blame-game in the aftermath of the Romney victory still brings a smile to my face. Who didn’t enjoy watching Chris Matthews meltdown? I got to accurately call Barack Obama […]

According to the most recent Forbes magazine list of The World’s Billionaires, entrepreneur: Sheldon Adelson: is worth $20.5 billion ranking as the 14th: richest man in the world.: : And it’s just great to see a self-made, proud: tough Jew: who comes from nothing succeed.: : Absolutely inspiring. He has spent significantly to educate Americans about the dangers of re-electing President Obama, including funding […]

Did Mitt Romney win the debate or did President Obama lose it? To those who watched, the answer is obvious: both. But in the media we hear endless explanations of why Obama lost and few comments on how effective and articulate Mitt Romney was. Bob Woodward hypothesizes that Obama was, somehow, distracted — perhaps by […]

San Francisco City Hall’s vast machinery went into overdrive after police questioned Sheriff Ross Mirkarimi about a Dec. 31 argument during which he bruised wife Eliana Lopez’s right arm. A neighbor videotaped the bruise and later contacted the police. District Attorney George Gascon filed three misdemeanor charges against Mirkarimi for domestic violence battery of his […]

: The American Center for Law and Justice (ACLJ), which works to protect religious freedom and human rights has attracted tens of thousands of signatures to a petition calling upon the Obama Administration to end its foreign policy of “appeasement and apologies” and stop sending U.S. taxpayer dollars to countries which permit and support the terrorism […]

I was surprised when Frank Luntz’ focus group showed that the best line of the evening’s debate was Governor Romney’s rendition of working with Democrats in Massachusetts and will continue to do so as president. However, it makes a great deal of sense that this line would resonate. While we professionals are trying to win […]

As China and Japan continue to ratchet up tensions over a group of disputed islands in the East China Sea, many investors may be wondering how the dispute could affect the marketplace. One potential area for fallout is the market for rare earth elements (REEs): the futuristic sounding group of 17 minerals with unpronounceable names […]

“I’m sorry, Jim. I’m going to stop the subsidy to PBS. I’m going to stop other things. I like PBS. I love Big Bird. I actually like you, too. But I’m not going to – I’m not going to keep on spending money on things to borrow money from China to pay for it.” – […]

Mitt Romney sure ruffled a lot of feathers over his proposal to eliminate taxpayer funding for government-sponsored TV. As soon as the GOP presidential candidate singled out PBS for cuts during the presidential debate in Denver, the hysterical squawking commenced. Left-leaning celebrities immediately erupted on Twitter. “WOW!!! No PBS!! WTF how about cutting congress’s stuff […]

After Wednesday night’s smashing debate victory for Mitt Romney, we may expect the national and swing state polls to change in the Republican’s direction. But not by as much as they should. These polls are biased in favor of President Obama and here’s the data to prove it: From noted Republican pollster John McLaughlin comes […]

It was the Puss in Boots eyes. If you’ve seen the “Shrek” movies or the spin-off cartoon starring the storybook cat voiced by Antonio Banderas, you know what I’m talking about. Whenever Puss in Boots really needs something from someone, he flashes these enormous kitten eyes that melt anyone in their path. Whenever my daughter […]

I am elated to report to you something you surely already know: Mitt Romney trounced President Obama in their first debate. The rout was so decisive that even the liberal media cannot spin it the other way. There is no need to grade this on a curve. Romney did very well in absolute, not relative, […]

The first presidential debate of 2012 is now behind us. The reviews suggest that many were surprised at how well Mitt Romney did and how weakly President Obama performed. The Instant Polls conducted by CBS and CNN showed Romney as the big winner. In fact, CNN found that Romney emerged with the largest advantage from […]

Obviously, Mitt Romney won last night’s debate. His passion, charisma, energy, eye contact, personality, force of argument and earnest compassion contrasted with a washed out, tired, hesitant President Obama. But seeing the debate from a professional’s eye, Romney scored a number of key victories in the turf wars that underlie this campaign. These victories are […]

The producers, the makers, and the people, regardless of what they’re making today, who have ambition, work ethic and still want to get their piece of the American dream……..Those are the people Paul Ryan is trying to reach out to: as opposed to the freeloaders, the takers, and the people who want Barack Obama to buy […]

With the first of three Presidential General Election debates having taken place last night, it seems like a good time to remind the American people of some of the worst aspects of the Obama Administration. But rather than focus just on the policy aspects of what President Obama has signed into law, this piece will […]

“I felt this thrill going up my leg. I mean, I don’t have that too often.”: – Chris Matthews on watching Barack Obama speak Chris Matthews isn’t just a left-wing hack; he’s the hackiest left wing hack you will EVER run into. He’s like an Obama campaign staffer except with LESS shame. So, this is a […]
