I don't believe that those days will ever return
The state should be friendly ground for the former Massachusetts governor. Romney was born and raised in Michigan, and his father was CEO of American Motors Corporation and then the state's governor. In the 2008 Republican presidential primary, Romney... Full Article at CBS News
The raids caused consternation in Washington, where lawmakers have threatened to cut off the roughly $1.5 billion Egypt gets in U.S. aid this year, unless the American NGO workers in Egypt now under a travel ban are allowed to leave the country. Later... Full Article at The Washington Post
The real problem for Romney is that the expectations are a bit misleading. Sure, Romney won the primary in 2008, but he was the conservative alternative to John McCain. This time around, he’s the establishment pick. What is more, the Romney name may... Full Article at The Daily Caller
MUNICH, GERMANY - FEBRUARY 04: US senator John McCain participates in a panel talk during day 2 of the 48th Munich Security Conference at Hotel Bayerischer Hof on February 4, 2012 in Munich, Germany. The 48th Munich conference on security policy is... View Photo »
China has made claims over the West Philippine Sea - the South China Sea - that I don't accept and I know the Philippine government doesn't accept ... The question is how do we reconcile those differences? I think we have a better chance of reconciling them peacefully, as Senator McCain says, if we both...
Sens. Bob Casey and Marco Rubio have introduced a resolution denouncing the Assad regime and calling on the Obama administration to work with Turkey, the European Union and the Arab League on the issue. It is so far unclear whether there are ample... Full Article at U.S. News & World Report
He comes close to one with Evangelicals as well at 48% to 20% for Romney and 12% for Gingrich. And he cracks the 50% line with voters identifying as ‘very conservative’ at 51% to 20% for Romney and 10% for Gingrich. In 2008 Mitt Romney won Michigan... Full Article at Firedoglake
George W. Bush spoke during the 2000 campaign at Bob Jones University, which had long banned interracial dating. Meanwhile, Bush campaign operatives allegedly circulated a rumor that rival John McCain had fathered an illegitimate black child. Former... Full Article at The Tennessean

Jobs and the economy are the transcendent issues of this campaign
For all its success in congressional races, the GOP's right wing repeatedly has failed to unite behind a ‘movement conservative’ to be the party's White House nominee. It happened in 2008 with John McCain, and in 1996 with Bob Dole ... Now social conservatives fear it's happening again in, of all places...
We're trying to win the hearts and minds
I don't think there's any doubt. I would say that there was torture. Susan Crawford, a Dick Cheney protegee, said there was torture. John McCain has said waterboarding was torture, and we've admitted we've waterboarded. There have been at least five judges in federal court and military courts that have ...
It is a hit ... Let's be very honest. There is a very strong evangelical movement in South Carolina, particularly inland.
I think both Bob Dole and John McCain felt the brunt of what happens when evangelical Christians sit at home. You can win the Republican nomination without evangelical Christians. I don’t think you can win the general election without them
The Marine Corps prides itself that we don’t lower ourselves to the level of the enemy
No, because last time around John McCain didn't campaign seriously in Iowa and he still came up with the nomination
Facts are stubborn things
The Mavens surveyed are political professionals who have a large stake in the election’s outcome. Their opinions aren’t based on personal politics, but on the viability and electability of candidates and their knowledge of how the system works. For example, over a quarter of respondents who said they vo...
is still reviewing the issue, and has asked the Navy, the Defense POW/MIA Office and the Joint POW/MIA Accounting Command for their views on it.
Romney is a better candidate than he was four years ago ... Two, you get a better sense of what the party is about. John McCain was a more conservative candidate than John McCain in 2000. Mitt Romney already moved to the right in 2008 and tried to solidify his conservative credentials.
I made a joke ... I'm sorry there's at least one of my colleagues that can't take a joke and so I apologize if I offended him and hope that someday he will have a sense of humor.
If Mitt Romney wins the Republican nomination, it’s all over. Obama wins. We don’t need another John McCain running against Obama.
Last I checked, Long Island was part--albeit sometimes regrettably--part of the United States of America
Combine the recent efforts by John McCain to create a police state with the revelations of Paulson’s corruption (crony capitalism) ... and you can only conclude that worse is coming.
An individual, no matter who they are, if they pose a threat to the security of the United States of America, should not be allowed to continue that threat
Rothstein bundled these contributions to contribute more than $1 million on behalf of RRA to various political committees associated with John McCain’s presidential election campaign
I fully support NATO’s commitment to investigate this tragedy thoroughly and immediately ... It is important to note that certain facts in Pakistan continue to complicate significantly the ability of coalition and Afghan forces to succeed in Afghanistan.
NYers can take a joke. But if Sen. John McCain wants to mock parts of America, stick to Arizona
In an exchange I had on the floor I mentioned that the wonderful people and the wonderful Long Island, I made a joke ... I'm sorry that there's at least one of my colleagues that can't take a joke, and so I apologize if I offended him and hope that someday he will have a sense of humor.
Romney once supported Ted Kennedy and John McCain's immigration reform bill, but last week he said he's willing to kick out of America families who have lived in the United States for over a generation.
