John Boehner’s “Plan B” political stunt has failed, as he could not even get his House Republicans to support the bill. This is a pretty stunning political failure by a guy who is cementing his legacy as one of the weakest Speakers ever. Why Boehner would even attempt this political stunt (and it [...]
The 2012 election just ended, but we’re already seeing some serious positioning from two 2016 GOP hopefuls. Both Bobby Jindal and Marco Rubio have taken some obvious political directions over the past two weeks that reveal a lot about what they think the path to the 2016 GOP nomination will be.
Jindal is betting that [...]
I’m pretty stunned that Mitt Romney chose to double down on his infamous 47% comments yesterday at a meeting with GOP donors. He basically said that minorities and single women voted for Obama because he gave them “gifts.”
Since the election, some of the more moderate members of the Republican party have [...]
The Houston Chronicle has an article up examining the demographical changes in Texas and whether the state is headed towards true Presidential election swing state status by 2020 or 2024.
A mathematical analysis of demographic trends and voting results by the Houston Chronicle and San Antonio Express-News finds that Texas Democrats will [...]
One of the things we have heard repeated over and over again for months during the 2012 campaign was that it was all about the economy. That is all that mattered. Now that the election is over, it is pretty clear that this race was NOT decided by the economy.
Did it help Obama [...]
One of the things most Republican pundits/strategists/hacks have finally woken up to following Obama’s electoral landslide win on Tuesday is that they probably can’t continue to lose the Hispanic vote by 40%+ if they ever want to win a national election again. Welcome to 2012.
That being said, solving their problem with Hispanic voters [...]
One of the most interesting aspects of today so far has been watching all the GOP pundits, who over the past weeks and months have promised that Romney would win in a landslide despite ALL polling data pointing to an Obama win, admit to their failures and acknowledge the country’s changing demographics.
Dick Morris said [...]
I’ve quickly gone through and compared the final results in the swing states and nationally to the final polls. As long as a pollster called a state correctly, I didn’t list them under least accurate or who got it wrong. Ties went under least accurate because the pollster did not correctly call the winner.
2012′s [...]
With Obama being re-elected in an electoral landslide, it tells us some very important things about the country politically going forward. My thoughts.
1. This is not a center-right country anymore. The changing demographics of the country have left the Republican party behind, and we saw that tonight. Facing a Democratic incumbent presiding over 7.9% [...]
2:02AM ET: Obama’s victory speech was full of the 2008-style soaring rhetoric that he largely kept out of the 2012 campaign. The speech was much more 2008 Obama than 2012. And that ends the 2012 Presidential election. Thanks to everyone who followed along. We set record traffic numbers today. I’ll be posting an article with [...]
