Blogging The Iowa Debate Part I
I DVR’d it, so I’m a little behind. First of all…does anyone actually believe that Fred Thompson is going to run? I just don’t see it happening. Romney won’t address anything in Brownback’s ad, just gives examples that contradict it. It sounds like he may be personally in pro-choice, but governs as pro-life. “I changed [...]
Ron Paul Has More Than McCain
We already know that Ron Paul is the most fiscally conservative candidate, and today George Stephanopoulos reports that Dr. Paul now has more money in his coffers than McCain. It makes me wish I hadn’t blocked McCain ads on my site…run him even further down. This makes Ron Paul a distant third in the money, [...]
Ron Paul on iPhone — Brilliant
Whoever is running the technical marketing aspect of Ron Paul’s campaign is a freaking genius. Find out what is more popular than Ron Paul in the medium that attracts your audience, attach yourself to those things, support them, encourage them, and grow them. Eventually, you’ll be playing in the same sandbox with them. No wonder [...]
Rejected 2008 Campaign Slogans
I was reading some old posts on the debates and post debate interviews and thought it would be funny to make up some campaign slogans for the Republican candidates. Feel free to play along… Mitt Romney–Don’t hate me because I’m beautiful, I’m also a Mormon. John McCain–Vote McCain! Did I read the queue card right? [...]
Thoughts on the New Hampshire Debate
Well, not very many fireworks at all. John McCain, my friends, looked so rehearsed that he was afraid he was going to make a mistake. I was glad to see Ron Paul stay on message and tie everything back to the Constitution and our flawed foreign policy. Almost every statement he made received at least [...]
Post Debate Coverage Part II — McCain
The media is doing one thing smart to kill the Paul campaign, just like I advised them to a few days ago. They are spinning Ron Paul’s response to drill him into the ground. I’ll predict right now that the blogosphere will in turn call out the media for spinning his answer that way. Ron [...]
Live Blogging of the South Carolina Debate Part III
Last segment… Question 41: McCain wouldn’t torture someone because of world opinion, but he’s sure okay with occupying other countries. Question 42: Guiliani doesn’t want to be responsible…just use “any method you can think of” Question 43: Romney has been diffusing bombs during his time as governor of Massachusetts. And combing his hair. Question 44: [...]
Live Blogging of the South Carolina Debate Part II
After the break… Question 21: That’s funny that Gilmore lumps those three together. I like to do that with “Republicrats”. He is doing a great job of not naming names. And now he’s naming names. This could get good. Question 22: Guiliani is basically asking McCain to be his running mate. I guess he’s been [...]
Live Blogging of the South Carolina Debate Part I
Not really live…there’s about an 18 minute TiVo delay plus pausing for “I can’t believe he just said that” moments. Question 1: McCain seems like he is just trying to fill up a minute’s worth of talking Question 2: Thompson isn’t answering the question at all. What he should say is, “If they don’t do [...]
Ron Paul is the Only Candidate Making Sense
Becky C.’s post has me fired up. I saw USA Today this morning and their poll listing the front runners. They didn’t even have Ron Paul listed among the “also rans”. If Hillary, Obama, McCain, Romney really do make more sense to the American public than Dr. Paul, we are in deep, deep trouble. Honestly, [...]
