President Obama was victorious, but that's not to say his supporters didn't suffer casualties. How many friendships were lost in lead up to the 2012 presidential election?
Mitt Romney's Election 2012 chances hinge on several swing states. As of Monday, battleground poll results projected a path for President Barack ...
There is no greater opportunity than here in America. Let's invest in America. Let's create jobs. Now is the time to vote Democrat. Now is the time to vote for Romney.
This juggling act would pose a nerve racking challenge to any GOP or Democrat occupant of the Oval Office. The tight walk demanded that a president be flexible, deft, and attuned to fast changing conditions and players in the Middle East.
The alienation of important blocs of voters by the GOP, in general, and its presidential nominee Mitt Romney, in particular, is a self-inflicted wound...
Saturday night I was watching C-SPAN (isn't that what everybody does on Saturday nights?) and I saw an amazing thing -- a speech by Mitt Romney in which he was relaxed and natural, making jokes that weren't painfully awkward.

All this Republican talk of war is meant to deflect attention away from their number one problem: Mitt Romney.
We are still many months away from "November Madness," and the race will not be a slam-dunk for either candidate.
His honest confessions are not only refreshing, but they are proof that he has no clear picture of the challenges facing the average American. And without understanding those challenges, no voter should believe he can eliminate them.
