The Political Inquirer

Last night Mitt Romney endorsed his “opponent,” the Arizona Senator John McCain. The wording of the first sentence was quite amusing:
Republican campaign dropout Mitt Romney endorsed John McCain for the party’s presidential nomination and asked his national convention delegates to swing behind the likely nominee.
It’s almost like the AP is comparing Romney to a high [...]

Quoting a Rush Limbaugh interview with Time,
“You know, Romney was up ten points in Florida until two things happened — until McCain started with this bulls–t about Romney being in favor of a time-line for withdrawal — he did that on a Saturday…  It was a Saturday he made that claim. So it’s three days before the [...]

Tonight, one Republican and one Democrat made a clean sweep of all the states up for grabs. John McCain and Barack Obama won with extensive margins in the states. What does this mean for Obama and McCain? For Obama this is most likely a statement to the Clinton Campaign saying,” Oh yeah, guess what? We’re [...]

A quote from me last evening:
Mitt Romney, drop out. Save your cash.
Then he makes a decision late last night to drop out? What are the odds he doesn’t make that decision the night of Super Tuesday, but last night instead? We can always dream!

There is only one place for the conservatives in the Republican party to turn to now. It is another presidential campaign. It is one that has been under the radar for most of this race. It is a campaign that has tried to start a change in the American mindset.
The campaign is that of Dr. [...]

Mitt Romney is now out of the race for the Republican nomination. His speech at CPAC is on the TIME site.
The end of Mitt Romney’s speech shows a fundamental disagreement I have with him.
I disagree with Senator McCain on a number of issues, as you know. But I agree with him on doing whatever it [...]

In an election cycle that has been filled with bizarre twists and comical changes, like Rudy’s inevitability to him on the verge of losing his own state, then to the rise of Mike Huckabee, and then the complete smashing of his record as Arkansas governor, it is unfortunate to say that the final chapter this [...]

Mike Huckabee is like the energizer bunny: he keeps on going and going. Huckabee won Alabama, Georgia, Tennessee and West Virginia showing his Southern strength. For Romney it was a night to stay alive a little longer, but why can’t that Huckabee fellow would go away. Romney won Arkansas, Alaska, Colorado, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Montana, North [...]

The Republican Party has shown its true roots. It is the party of Lincoln: the same party that abolished Habeas Corpus, that suspended free speech, that attacked states that had the right of secession in 1861.
This party is the same party that elected Theodore Roosevelt, the great Imperialist and big-government activist.
Republican is the name of [...]

I always thought discussions like this would be done in closed rooms where Romney offers Huckabee a VP spot if he drops out, not on network news.  Regardless, this is another example of how the primary process is flawed.  In order to fix it, you should be able to vote for everyone you feel is [...]
