| 2011-12-01 06:04:43 |
Likely 2012 Choices - Going Forward - Who do you Trust? - image from pensitoreview.comWhen one looks at the very capable field of “contenders” for the 2012 GOP Presidential nomination, one understands that the time between the Iowa and New Hampshire caucuses has grown so short, that any recovery for those who are not Mitt Romney or Newt Gingrich would be nothing short of miraculous. With today being December 1st, there are approximately four weeks left to sort the chaff from the wheat, and the early primary and caucus states will be the harbinger of things to come.The Candidates, from this perspective, offer two very clear choices, one in Willard Mitt Romney, who has a track record as Governor of Massachusetts, but more of a track record in business, giving rise to his claim as a “W...

Photo via Reuters: One gets a clear sense about how Romney feels about GingrichReuters: Former One-term Governor of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, 2008 GOP Presidential Candidate and 2012 GOP Presidential CandidateWilliard Mitt Romney, insists that his biggest obstacle to the White House, one Newt Gingrich, is a “lifelong politician" who lacks credibility on how the U.S. economy works.” (Reuters).

| Quote of the Month: Charles Hurt, Washington Times on Mitt Romney (with Analysis and Opinion) |
| 2011-11-30 04:54:43 |

| 2011-11-29 06:03:33 |
Cain, Gingrich and Romney - image business insiderNewt Gingrich has been coming out with some pretty savvy remarks as of late, most probably designed in part to differentiate himself from Mitt Romney, who had been considered the front runner (especially by the Political Class and Beltway Pundits), and in part due to his intellect, age with life experience, and wisdom acquired through study. Having been there and done that in Congress, Gingrich’s record from the moment he set foot in the U.S. Congress to his Leadership in the House during the Clinton Administration that brought about significant changes that enhanced the nation.

In the mid-term, Frank struggled against a newcomer, Sean Bielat, a Republican, in what was, at the time, a heavily gerrymandered district.The Massachusetts Redistricting that just took place, made Frank's position more vulnerable, removing the large urban area of New Bedford, and giving Frank conservative suburban areas in the Worcester Area. It is not, at this time, known, who will run to replace Frank in the 2012 election cycle.

The Union Leader, in its endorsement, does not sound one whit like pre-2010 newspaper endorsement – in fact, not unlike the changes in the New Hampshire political scene since that time, the editorial board should be applauded for its straight forward, what might be considered “Tea Party”, approach to the endorsement of the former Speaker.

Clinton, more than most politician’s, understands the process and who is up or down by looking at a combination of polls and strategy. In the video shown below, by NewMax.com TV, Clinton discusses the 20...
