Simple random musings by a self-made New York entrepreneur who is frustrated after the election, and scared about the future of this country. If the Republicans couldn’t win this election, how can they win any election? And for me as a self-made man who was never handed anything how can I believe that this country […]
Originally posted on: The Young Cons. While many expected high Republican vote turnout, that just wasn’t the case on Nov. 6. : Mitt Romney received less votes in Ohio than John McCain in 2008, and received three million less votes in the popular vote than John McCain. : As Amanda Carpenter tweeted the day after the election, while […]
Your days are done, white man. In its November issue, Newsweek and writer David Frum want you GOP whities to know that you’re old, you’re white, and you’re finished. Not only does Newsweek want white Republicans to know their salad days are over (and that they are racist, no doubt), but the aging magazine has […]
Ladies and gentlemen, Roseanne Barr: Yeah, see, because “woman” is just “man” with a prefix on it! Totally male dominated patriarchy, man! Uh, I mean … dude! So female, see, because female isn’t… …um…wait… And while we’re talking about Roseanne: California gave Democrats supermajorities in both of their legislative houses on Tuesday. California also gave […]
Well, I added the insanity part. Emanuel wants climate scientists to become more forceful in their predictions and talking points, and brings the #Fail (Foreign Policy) Conventional wisdom about climate change may have begun to gel in the aftermath of Sandy, but did global warming really cause the vicious hybrid storm that devastated much of […]
As the saying goes, elections have consequences (The Hill) President Obama said in his weekly address Saturday that his reelection shows Americans want Congress to pass a tax cut for the middle class. This is what Conservatives mean when we talk about “bias.” In the first paragraph, we get a lie. Obama doesn’t want to […]
“9 Amazing Recipes That Will Rot Your Teeth: Out:: If you’re gonna make a dessert, MAKE A DESSERT, you feel me?“
Not good news.
Let’s not sugarcoat it: we got our teeth kicked in on Tuesday. Sure, we added governorships and held our ground in the House, but we went backwards in the Senate and lost to an out-of-touch, incompetent, petty man who centered his campaign around Mitt Romney’s bank account and Big Bird. We didn’t get beaten by […]
Will Republicans ever win the presidency again? In the aftermath of the reelection of the worst president since James Buchanan, the question must be asked. Clearly, the Republican Party is on the downswing. But why? There are two easy answers. Neither of them is correct. The first answer is advanced by proponents of liberalism. They […]
Now that President Obama has been re-elected, the media is finally free to focus on something besides the clueless undecided voters in Ohio, Florida, and Colorado. The brightest and shiniest object that has attracted its attention is the “fiscal cliff” that we are expected to drive over at the end of the year unless Congress […]
As CEO of: 5WPR, I often read about different media and public relations initiatives and wanted to share some of the more interesting articles of the past week: Must read article about 5 ways in which the media tipped the scale for Obama.: : There’s probably about 50,000 ways the media helped Obama.: Simply false for most so-called mainstream […]
Mitt Romney was winning independents in most polls by 7-20 points before Chris Christie’s over-the-top praise for the minimal amount of help Obama gave his state tanked Mitt’s numbers with independents. The early exit polls showed that Mitt won independents by only 5 points. So, did Chris Christie cost Mitt Romney hundreds of thousands […]
I’m sure Obama will make a great president. I can’t wait for him to get started. – Adam Carolla (@adamcarolla) November 7, 2012: Say what you want about our spending while running the RNC, at least we won elections. THAT’S what I call an ROI. dailycaller.com/2012/11/08/rnc… – Michael Steele (@Steele_Michael) November […]
By John Hawkins TPNN Contributor Since Saddam Hussein was a dictator, you may not be aware that people actually had “elections” in Iraq when he was in charge. Forexample, in 1995, Saddam Hussein received 99.96% of the vote; everyone just assumed it was fraudulent. Quite frankly, people: should make the same assumption about these numbers. Some […]
Since the results of the 2012 election came in, Speaker of the House John Boehner has shown signs of abdicating his role as a Conservative American leader. On taxes he has said “For purposes of forging a bipartisan agreement that begins to solve the problem, we’re willing to accept new revenue, under the right conditions.” […]
Two days after the election, CNBC published a dour report on the economy. Shockingly, CNBC is predicting that the U.S. economy is likely headed for another recession. CNBC so helpfully tells us that, now that the election is behind us, the light in our economic tunnel could be a “freight train.” Gee, it sure would […]
Just for fun, and something different from politics, I’m going to somewhat hijack John’s Q&A Friday. Vega asked (sorry, no formatting or links, can’t on Droid) Who do you think will win the Super Bowl this year? I’ve got a $100,000 that says this years winner is my NY Giants. Anyone want to bet? But, […]
Warmists really just can’t help themselves. Years ago they told Climate Realists that weather was not climate. Now, every storm is proof of “climate change”, even snow storms and long cold periods. I personally love their insane argument about snow, where they say a warmer climate creates more water vapor creating more snow. I guess […]
Quite a few companies are giving their position on the election outcome (The Blaze) Do elections have consequences? If you have been paying attention to the financial markets, you might think so. Wall Street has had two horrible days since President Obama won a second term. However, stock prices are not the only thing taking […]
Question: Rush Limbaugh has said that conservatives are “outnumbered,” which I took to mean that the new liberal electoral coalition fashioned and mobilized by Obama now represents the majority of American opinion. First, do you think this is what Limbaugh meant? If so, do you agree? And if you agree, what’s to be done about […]
Question: Oooh! What do you think the effect of statistical analysis – a la Sam Wang at PEC or that Nate guy that everybody loves – on punditry in upcoming elections? — MightyMooMan Nate Silver’s % chance of o winning on his blog is actually the chance he’ll be called a genius if Obama wins […]
Question: What would the GOP have to do in order to take the Senate in 2014? — President Friedman The GOP could conceivably take the Senate back in 2014, although we’d need to have a really big year because we underperformed so much this year. Six months ago, most people thought the GOP was on […]
Question: It seems pretty obvious that Romney avoiding social issues only allowed to the Obama campaign to define him in the eyes of the electorate(and Akin, Murdoch, etc. didn’t exactly help). Going forward do you feel like the Republican party should switch their positions on social issues and take the ideological stance of limited government […]
The GOP establishment and some conservative pundits, such as Ann Coulter, are in full defense mode, claiming that Romney is not responsible for losing to an incumbent responsible for perhaps the most damaging fiscal crises in our nation’s history.: : Don’t believe it.: Romney IS responsible for wasting a billion dollars carry out an issue-free campaign […]
President Obama promises to move the country forward with his recycled pledge of five million green jobs. But in the real world, small businesses are struggling to stay afloat as they deal with the fiscal wreckage of this administration’s disastrous venture socialism. Here’s the tale of just one Colorado company victimized by the Obama Department […]
The Progressives won on Tuesday. I don’t mean the people who voted Democrat who call themselves “progressive.” Though they won, too. I mean the Progressives who’ve been waging a century-long effort to transform our American-style government into a European-style state. The words “government” and “state” are often used interchangeably, but they are really different things. […]
Has the nation gone irreversibly blue? Did intraparty disunity sabotage Mitt Romney’s presidential quest? Or is there some other explanation for the nation’s re-election of a president with the worst record in decades? I received an email from a brilliant conservative friend who wonders whether Republicans can ever win another election and thus whether the […]
While I was wrong in predicting a Mitt Romney win, I was, unfortunately, correct in saying that President Obama would move to sign a U.N. Arms Control Treaty right after the election whether he won or lost. On the very day after the election, the Obama administration voted to reopen talks on the treaty at […]
One of the strangest aspects of Election 2012 is that voters are demanding change but didn’t change politicians. They left Republicans in charge of the House, elected an even more Democratic Senate and re-elected President Obama. They’re unhappy with the status quo in the country but left the political status quo in place. That doesn’t […]
