Romney picks up another Thompson advisor

Well, it would seem (just from my gut feeling) that Romney is winning the Thompson-o-rama...here is a post by Jonathan Martin at Politico about the latest 'get'.

Romney's numbers have been rising on the RealClearPolitics poll average...I'm guessing Thompson getting out is definitely helping him. We'll see if it's enough on tuesday.

And now for something completely different...
Today is primary day in SC for the Dems. Time to see what the impact of the hate-fest will be as we go down the road. Interesting that at the beginning of the debate process we were talking about how friendly the Democrats were and how divisive the Republicans were. It would seem they are both returning to form, Republicans coming together and Democrats eating their own for no good reason.

John McCain and George H.W. Bush...Separated at Birth?

...have you noticed the similarities (I know they're not identical) between the candidacies of John McCain and George H.W. Bush? Both men: were decorated military veterans had lost nomination fights in the past had extensiive foreign policy resumes criticized for being less interested in domestic politics criticized for being a moderate, not being conservative enough. True enough...McCain and George HW...seperated at birth.

NW Republican: Ronald Reagan was more than an actor

This is a GREAT post in NW Republican: NW Republican: Ronald Reagan was more than an actor He is basically making the point that I've made...that while I agree with Christine O'Donnell on points of policy, she was a terrible candidate. We mock Joe Biden for being prone to gaffes, but she was almost as prone to it as he is. We mocked Barack Obama for being unqualified to be President, but what are her qualifications? What has she actually done ? We need to get to a point where someone needs to actually be a good candidate with significant life achievements, not just have the right views and look good on TV. The ones who fit that bill in the last election (Pat Toomey, Marco Rubio, John Kasich, Rob Portman are examples) won. Here is a link to the original column by Peggy Noonan that he refers to in his blog post: "Americans Vote for Maturity", by Peggy Noonan, WSJ, 11-5-2010
