Displaying 2,941 To 2,970 Of 3,237 Comments I sent a donation to the Carmona Campaign and will phone bank for candidate. We need to go back to the Dean 50 State Strategy. » Posted By MurphTheSurf3 On November 12, 2011 @ 8:05 pm GINGRICH–—-BIG WHOPPER…. He endorsed the Freddie Mac model….He backed the subprime loans….He lobbied for the support of the GOP as a former Speaker of the House…. http://motherjones.com/mojo/2011/11/newts-fannie-mae-lobbying-whoppe » Posted By MurphTheSurf3 On November 10, 2011 @ 7:32 am THE GOP DEBATERS Not a single mention the entire night of real people in the middle and lower clsses…their concern: the One Percent….those mythical job makers, inventory builders, researchers and developers, infrastructure investors…. » Posted By MurphTheSurf3 On November 10, 2011 @ 6:25 am A case could be made for this but given Roves real antipathy toward Perry and that the Cain gambit could well help him….I wonder about this. » Posted By MurphTheSurf3 On November 9, 2011 @ 4:56 pm Hart dared the press to uncover his wilder side and they did. But I think your second sentence is the essence of the hypocrisy at work here. Rules for others….we are exempted by the Lawd! » Posted By MurphTheSurf3 On November 9, 2011 @ 4:53 pm SALLY…. You left two comments re. a OWS based Third Party, ala the Green Party. I hope you are right about this being an expression of frustration and that now that Obama is more fully engaged it will pass. It better. A Third Party expressing Progressive, or even Socialist Sentiments, would be a God-Send from the GOP POV. It would provide fodder for the “see we told you the Dems are really socialists” crowd and for the “of course you are unhappy with the Dems and Obama…don’t waste your vote on them.” Idealists who have said I would rather have not had any health care reform at all than what we got….so foolish. Politics really is the art of the possible. » Posted By MurphTheSurf3 On November 9, 2011 @ 4:45 pm Done » Posted By MurphTheSurf3 On November 9, 2011 @ 1:47 pm Your spin on Rove seems to match my info base as well. I wonder if Rove will be able to herd the TP. Palin hates him. So does Bachmann. I wonder….staying home or voting for some third party loon. » Posted By MurphTheSurf3 On November 9, 2011 @ 12:54 pm Sanders is sane and he attracts sanity. My comment was mostly about the demographics in the room. » Posted By MurphTheSurf3 On November 9, 2011 @ 12:50 pm Third Party, Voter Suppression, Reapportioned Elector Votes, Campaigns to Confuse Voters, Misinformation Flooding the Media Lots to be worried about. » Posted By MurphTheSurf3 On November 9, 2011 @ 12:47 pm It is moot UNLESS a smoking gun is discovered and then another story develops. The circular firing squad. Would it have come out? Probably. Of course, I suspect that Cain was a trojan horse. He was rolled into the field of candidates and was expected to dump his “run Government like business using 9-9-9-9” mantra that was developed by AFP market trader from models furnished by AFP. Having dumped it, he was expected to fade. But the implosion of the Perry campaign and the dissatisfaction with Romney was so dramatic, he rose to the top. As to Romney…..Latter Day Saint beliefs are intriguing and if they become part of the campaign could be difficult. » Posted By MurphTheSurf3 On November 9, 2011 @ 12:42 pm Given the amount of conversation in the last several days about source….I thought I might raise the question in terms which Cain is using- political enemies. I suspect that you and Em are as likely to be right about your sourcing theories as I am in the ones I proposed. My purpose was to debunk the Cain theory that the Dems Did the Deed. As to Rove…..if he has a part to play in this it’s easy to accept your spin- he is taking down both Cain and Perry. Do you think that he believes the TP crowd will turn to Romney when the field has only one man standing? Do you agree? » Posted By MurphTheSurf3 On November 9, 2011 @ 12:22 pm If you get the opportunity go for Current and LInk. Worth the time and trouble. » Posted By MurphTheSurf3 On November 9, 2011 @ 12:03 pm YUP. Your Uncommonly Perceptive. » Posted By MurphTheSurf3 On November 9, 2011 @ 10:58 am Bito…. Rove cannot stand Perry and the feeling is mutual. Why would Rove want to clear the Tea Party field for Perry? In fact, Fox appears to be going out of its way to give Cain cover and Rove-Fox are simpatico. Yes? » Posted By MurphTheSurf3 On November 9, 2011 @ 10:58 am Not a thing here I disagree with. I probably should have said —- If any one of these campaigns is at the root of the public disclosure, then….. I think it is quite possible that the scenario is as you describe with just a little nudge when the “reports” surfaced that Cain had problems at the NRA…. As to Cain himself….he is a KOCH candidate. He has worked for Americans For Prosperity as a Lobbyist and Speaker for 10 years. His organization is their organization. His money is their money. Qualified…of course not….he like the Tea Party is a front….that simple. As to Perry….that which works against the most….his own miserable record in TX. » Posted By MurphTheSurf3 On November 9, 2011 @ 10:56 am Interesting. I wonder if they need to know that folks like myself jump to different conclusions? » Posted By MurphTheSurf3 On November 9, 2011 @ 8:33 am WHO’S BEHIND THE EXPOSURE OF THE CAIN ACHILLES HEEL? THE USUAL SUSPECTS....let’s look at the logic. Not the Dems, who would love to have Cain or Perry as the GOP nominee rather than Romney. Not Romney who wants Perry, Cain, Bachmann to fight it out on the right. Not Bachmann who wants Perry and Cain to whittle each other down to make room for her. Not Gingrich who wants the insane wing to get lots of exposure so he can come to the forefront. Not Huntsman who…..well who just doesn’t have a lot going on. So WHO IS LEFT? Notice how quiet they have been. I am looking forward to the GOP debate tonight. » Posted By MurphTheSurf3 On November 9, 2011 @ 8:31 am In general, I want my government to be peopled by the cool the calm the collected; not the crazy, the crazier and the craziest. » Posted By MurphTheSurf3 On November 9, 2011 @ 7:52 am The man is strung very tight. His YouTube Message are actually just as scary and those are rehearsed. » Posted By MurphTheSurf3 On November 9, 2011 @ 7:50 am Lewis is a last generation Republican. The kind I have voted for in the past (I really am an independent). He took a great risk in taking on the most powerful Rep. in the state of Arizona (the shadow governor, the king maker). PEARCE IS THE FIRST MAJORITY LEADER OF A STATE SENATE TO HAVE EVER BEEN RECALLED. Remarkable really. Lewis is a conservative, but a very sensible one. » Posted By MurphTheSurf3 On November 9, 2011 @ 7:48 am A Bernie Sanders Crowd! These are the kind of folks he attracts to his banner. Who is this very well spoken man in the crowd? » Posted By MurphTheSurf3 On November 9, 2011 @ 7:44 am Most of the folks in that crowd would have been Tea Party a year ago. » Posted By MurphTheSurf3 On November 9, 2011 @ 7:41 am Very nice sentiment. Is there a reason why the state is in “GOP Red” with the Ohio underlining the same? » Posted By MurphTheSurf3 On November 9, 2011 @ 7:39 am Remember his campaign motto: IN YOUR HEART YOU KNOW HE’S RIGHT. Well, even a broken clock is correct twice a day. Goldwater was a traditional conservative (with a strong internationalist streak) and believed that grave danger lay in any effort to institutionalize religion within government. » Posted By MurphTheSurf3 On November 9, 2011 @ 7:38 am The structure of the electoral system and the way in which elections are covered by media, in all its forms, so favors the two party system that third party candidacies are generally quixotic. Even more disturbing is that third party candidacies can be used as elements of strategy by one major party against another major party. For example, I have very little doubt that the Nader campaign was secretly supported by the GOP in swing states in terms of money, ad campaigns and endorsing the concept of the validity of his run, as in Florida. Sadly, looking at the history of 3rd Party runs, it is a gallery of Perots and Naders. » Posted By MurphTheSurf3 On November 9, 2011 @ 7:34 am His concession speech….lol
» Posted By MurphTheSurf3 On November 8, 2011 @ 9:20 pm cheers » Posted By MurphTheSurf3 On November 8, 2011 @ 9:15 pm According to the Maricopa County Recorder Elections Department, Republican moderate and SB 1070 opponent Jerry Lewis overcame the Pearce campaign’s series of dirty tricks and election war chest to win 53.4% to 45.3%. in a contest that divided the city’s influential Mormon Church. http://recorder.maricopa.gov/electionresults/JurStatic.aspx Considered the de facto governor of Arizona, the seemingly invincible and right-wing extremist Pearce became the first state Senate president in American history to be thrown out of office in a recall election. » Posted By MurphTheSurf3 On November 8, 2011 @ 9:14 pm On the mark. Family Research Council, a social conservative advocacy nonprofit headed by Tony Perkins, has awarded Walsh a 100 percent rating as a “True Blue” member of Congress. The FRC said it gave the honor to Walsh because of his “unwavering support of the family”. “We thank Cong. Walsh who has voted consistently to defend faith, family and freedom,” said FRCA President Tony Perkins. “Cong. Walsh and other ‘True Blue Members’ have voted to repeal Obamacare, de-fund Planned Parenthood, end government funding for abortion within the health care law, uphold the Defense of Marriage Act, and continue support for school choice. I applaud their commitment to uphold the institutions of marriage and family.” Now I will have a stiff drink. » Posted By MurphTheSurf3 On November 8, 2011 @ 8:38 pmComments Posted By MurphTheSurf3
Yesterday he made a case for the Democratic Machine, but let’s examine…
Perry, or Perry’s people (giving the Boss “plausible denialbility” who need Cain out of the way NOW. He has the staff, the money, and down and dirty experience of Texas politics.
and the snarky Dem counter-motto: BUT IN YOUR GUTS YOU KNOW HE’S NUTS.
