Here's Mitt Romney when he was running for governor of Massachusetts in 2002, explaining that he's not like all those other Republicans -- he's a "progressive."
Mitt Romney's first political ad of this election season is now infamous for a blatantly dishonest out of context quote from President Obama. When the lie was exposed, Romney's staff simply boasted that "it worked." Dishonesty is working so well for Romney that his new advertisement carries on the tradition, with ...

Wingnut bloggers are hilariously freaking out today about a conference call held by the Romney campaign, because they took questions from Mother Jones and Talking Points Memo, but not ... them. The charge is led by third string wingnut "Datechguy:" If you're a conservative Mitt Romney apparently doesn't want ...

Newt Gingrich may be ahead in the polls, but he's never going to be the Republican nominee, for two reasons: 1) everyone knows that Mitt Romney is next in the GOP's good ol' boy line of succession (and it will become crystal clear when he gets the endorsement of John ...
Mitt Romney just announced on Fox News that he won't be taking part in the Newsmax-Donald Trump debate later this month. I believe the only ones who've actually agreed to participate are Newt Gingrich and Rick Santorum; at this rate, the debate may end up canceled. I hope not. That would ...
Before leaving the governorship of Massachusetts, Mitt Romney and his top aides spent nearly $100,000 in state funds to hide and/or destroy public records of his term in office, including all of Romney's email correspondence. Reuters reports that this isn't illegal, but it should be. (Reuters) - Mitt Romney spent ...
I've been lying awake at nights, pondering who in the heck Dan Quayle would endorse for President, and at long last we have our answer. A GOP official familiar with Quayle's thinking says the former vice president is backing Romney because he views Romney as the most credible candidate in ...

You see, it's all about seizing power for the Republican Party; it really doesn't matter if their presidential candidate is a venal narcissist with a raging case of egomania and a history of using women and then throwing them aside like garbage -- if they think he can win, Republicans ...

Amazing. We've actually reached the point in the slow motion train wreck called the Republican Party at which a presidential candidate simply lies outright about President Obama -- and when called on it, he openly admits he lied and boasts that it was a success: Team Romney Crows About That ...

Mitt Romney's first campaign ad, titled "Believe in America," centers around an audio clip of President Obama saying, "If we keep talking about the economy, we’re going to lose." An amazingly dishonest audio clip, that is, because Obama was actually quoting the words of a John McCain adviser, talking about McCain's ...

Another thread to dissect the GOP debate in New Hampshire: [Debate's over, video's removed...] Favorite line of the night so far: when Rick Perry said, "That's why Americans are so untrustworthy." This is the guy who appointed creationists to head the Texas State Board of Education. Now you see why.
Here we go again, with the Republican candidates explaining why the most draconian far right economic solutions that have never worked before need to be given one more try... Drinking game: "Obamacare." [Video moved to next thread...]
It's a religious right slap-fight, started by one of Rick Perry's closest religious fanatic pals, Baptist preacher Robert Jeffress, who called Mormonism a "cult" at last weekend's Values Voter Summit. Other Republican politicians are condemning this outright religious bigotry, and today Mitt Romney called on Rick Perry to repudiate Jeffress's comments. Perry's ...

If there's one right wing event that sums up the reasons why I ran screaming away from these lunatics more than any other, it's the Values Voter Summit, put on every year by a devil's brew of extreme religious fanatics preaching virulent hatred against everyone who isn't them. At the Values ...

The Obama administration has promised to veto the Palestinian bid for statehood in the UN Security Council, but of course that doesn't stop the loons running for the GOP nomination from attacking him anyway, with the usual right wing nonsense that Obama has changed the US stance toward Israel (he ...

Ron Paul's "let 'em die" health plan wasn't the only appalling moment in last night's debate. Not by a long shot. Here we see the audience booing Ron Paul for saying "the whole Muslim world" was not responsible for 9/11. (Preceded by the usual "they hate our American exceptionalism" incantations from ...

Our favorite line of the night so far is from Mitt Romney: If you need a turn-around, that's what I do. We know. Like Romney's turn-around on abortion, or his turn-around on climate change, or his turn-around on health care. If there's one skill Mitt Romney possesses, it's the art of ...
