Romney Steps Aside
Filed Under Elections, Government, John McCain, Mike Huckabee, Mitt Romney, Politics | 1 Comment
Class. That’s all there is to it. Mitt Romney has more class in his little finger than John McCain and Mike Huckabee can muster together.
His speech to CPAC demonstrates who the real American Statesman is.
Just a parting “stick in the eye” to either McCain or Huckabee…buy one now.

Not Global Warming, Climate Change
Filed Under Environment, Fascism, Global Warming | Leave a Comment
MSNBC is carrying a story here that blames China’s coldest winter in 100 years on Climate Change. You’ll notice how the threat is shifting from Global Warming (which is becoming increasingly discredited with the release of new data) to the more generic “Climate Change.”
Of course the climate changes. It has always done so. The question now is, “What causes Climate Change.” The proponents of government intervention will insist that the change is anthropogenic (man-made). The eco-fascists need a crisis around which they can rally support, mobilize their forces, and ram their regulations through the respective legislative bodies. The goal is ultimately a one-world governing body connected to the United Nations.
They have yet to explain how greenhouse gas emissions cause both warming and cooling under the new climate change theory. But judging from past experience, that isn’t much of a challenge. There always seems to be someone willing to provide a new junk-scientific theory that ignores reality and ostensibly proves that Man is the cause of every evil in the world.
And support for the new theory won’t be difficult, either; they can get some people to believe anything.

The day we find out if John McCain really does have the support of Conservative Republicans that he claims to have, or if Mitt Romney can surge into a strong position that demonstrates the strength of the anti-McCain movement.
Go Mitt!

Romney Handily Wins Maine Caucuses
Filed Under Elections, Government, John McCain, Mike Huckabee, Mitt Romney, Politics, Ron Paul | Leave a Comment
Here are the recent polling numbers:
68% of Precincts reporting:
Romney 52%
McCain 21%
Ron Paul 19%
Mike Huckabee 6%
Undecided 2%
I think the fun point of interest is Ron Paul’s point spread over Mike Huckabee. That’s got to be painful for the Huckabillies.

Mike Huckabee’s Race for Vice-President
Filed Under Elections, Government, Politics | 3 Comments
Why is Mike Huckabee still in the race for the nomination? There is really no way he can win the nomination–he just hasn’t demonstrated that he has the needed support. So you have to ask, what does his refusal to give up the race say about him? Although several reasons have been discussed as to why he has not dropped out yet, I think an analysis will show that Mike Huckabee is in it for his own political gain.
