South Carolina voters spoke volumes today, so I’ll be brief.
I listened to all four speeches tonight. Three candidates spoke of continuing their campaigns.
One spoke of taking on Obama – defeating him, and restoring American Values to our country and our government.
Newt spoke most graciously and inclusively about his three rivals. It was a class act. It was a clear demonstration of a future president ready to unite, repair, and lead the restoration of American Greatness.
I hope the 51 members of the MassGOP who made such a public blunder on November 30th are at least humble enough to be second-guessing their vote tonight.

Old Soldier, – Still Good for Parts!
Nobody begrudges you your hard-earned fortune Mitt. Least of all me.
You’ve been running for President since 2006. You’ve had a full six years to think, anticipate, and plan. What part of your cautious cover-all-eventualities personality thought you’d get to make this run without releasing your taxes?
So you fail the 10 word sound-bite:
“…he hid his fortune in the Cayman Islands!”
In just 8 short words – however loaded, false, or skewed they are – the Democrats destroy you. You really never saw this coming?Read more »
For over fifty years Democrats have mastered and ruthlessly used catchwords and sound-bites to cover their scurrilous agenda and steer the national debate in their favor.
For 2012 their buzzword will be ‘Republican Gridlock’!
Don’t buy into it – that ‘gridlock’ was the only thing that saved our Republic from an Obama Bankruptcy!
Let’s briefly discuss the agendas and the sound-bites: Read more »
It’s happened again – community shock and outrage, quiet denial, questioning, worried parents wondering if their kids were victims.
David Ettlinger – a 2ndgrade teacher at Newton’s Underwood Elementary for 12 years – is in jail – found with a stash of kiddie porn – and little girls’ underwear.
Newton may feel as betrayed as Attleboro Police Chief Kyke Heagney who believes a ‘rogue cop’ stole drug evidence from his department’s evidence vault.
I have a solution for both schools and police departments. Read more »
I was still a young man – and a young soldier – when Martin Luther King Jr. was assassinated. The fires that tore through our cities and our souls in the weeks that followed are still vivid memories. So I thought a gentler reminder and historical image might be nice.

Over built – over priced – undertrained crew – overstuffed with 4,234 souls – what could possibly go wrong?
Early reports – 69 missing – 18 injured 3 dead – tiny island of Giglio overwhelmed. Built in 2005 – owned by Carnival. Sort of looks like where our economy is headed under Capn Obama…
In the muddy waters of the Great Pee Dee River – some Republicans and most of the RiNOs are running scared.
Yankee politicians are regarded with a healthy degree of distain in the South – as frontrunner Mitt Romney is finding out. Smarting from his 4th place finish in New Hampshire, Newt is gaining ground [remember - he’s from Georgia] while Yankees Romney and Santorum are struggling.
The attack ad ‘King of Bain’ is having an effect – much to the consternation of pundits and Klingons like Rudi Giuliani.
Rick Perry also attacked Romney’s Bain Capital record as ‘vulture capitalism’. Read more »
Established to communicate mainstream and conservative Republican thinking. For a brief moment, as Obama swept into office, we felt like we were wandering alone through a socialist desert. But quickly your hits started adding up, and we know that we’re not alone. Part of the blame also lies with the leadership of our own Republican Party – mostly for trying to win votes by running RiNO candidates who masquerade as pseudo-Democrats.
