NH2012: Cable Talking Heads Already Diminishing A Romney Victory

I’ve been channel hopping this afternoon and this evening and I’m hearing two talking points all over cable: Mitt Romney needs to win by more than 32% (the total he got in 2008) or it hurts him. Romney has been losing steam in polling the past couple of days. Both of these notions are 100% …

NH 2012: Ron Paul Really IS Dangerous, Part One…

  Open criticism of Texas Congresman and Presidential hopeful Ron Paul is a dangerous proposition. Since 2007, I’ve received more than my share of hate mail from some grass roots zealots that support Paul.  Nearly all of the messages have been hateful screeds laced with profanity, claiming that I don’t understand–that Ron Paul is the …
