The GOP debates and the President’s jobs speech have now launched the 2012 race. Here is where we are: First the Republicans:• The two debates showed that there are only two even remotely possible nominees – Perry and Romney – and they are both general election candidates with heavy baggage;• Bachmann is finished – only she doesn’t know it yet; she was never going anywhere anyway; she is a

Republican Bob Turner’s surprisingly-big win tonight is actually no surprise at all. Why not? Because this is the seat of former Representative Anthony Weiner, whose amoral, disgusting – and shameful (although not criminal) – behavior in compulsively sexting pictures of himself to woman all over the nation brought un-wanted attention to NYC’s 9th Congressional District.

It is clear that President Obama can be defeated in 2012. That – by itself – is a huge change from six months ago – or even three months ago after the Osama Bin Laden take-down. In early May all the talk was how Obama had “guaranteed his re-election” by the successful killing of the 9/11 mastermind. But a deteriorating economy will rot out any presidency – and even Obama, with his MSM

As we head toward crunch time in the all-important Debt Ceiling negotiation, the GOP’s Tea Party-inspired hard-line position has already yielded potentially game-changing concessions on Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid spending from President Obama and the Democrats – all without giving up a thing! The GOP has done this by maintaining a hard line on “no new net revenues.” Faced with this

The Wild Card in the 2012 election is NOT JUST the non-economic recovery. It is the spreading fear that the USA is in decline. If the economy continues with this non-job-creating stagnation and its associated hopelessness and pessimism, all bets are off for both the GOP nomination and for the eventual outcome of the November general election.

Here is what is going to happen later this year – and into 2012: A candidate we are not yet talking about – and who is not in the race or even on anyone’s radar screen – will enter the GOP presidential race in the late fall – maybe even as late as November or December. Yes, this man may miss the filing deadline for the Iowa caucuses – but that will not in any way be fatal to his campaign. This

Donald Trump’s emergence as a possible 2012 GOP presidential candidate has to be compared to the last billionaire—Ross Perot—who burst onto the political scene in February 1992 on CNN’s Larry King Live and completely altered that race and, in effect, elected Bill Clinton over President George H. W. Bush.There are a few similarities between Perot and Trump but many differences, too:• As

The Tea Party Movement is the driving force in American politics.In every aspect of our politics‚both in campaigns, in State Houses and up on Capitol Hill—the Tea Party Movement is re-shaping the debate on debt and the role and scope of government. This grass-roots, bottom-up movement completely dominated the 2010 GOP senatorial, congressional and gubernatorial primaries—and won almost every

(This piece is for conjecture—for argument’s sake—and for debate. Nothing more.)In 1932 a teenage American student—Tony Duke—was touring Europe with his mother, step-father and his older brother when they were invited to attend an Opera in Munich. Sitting just ten rows from the stage, Tony noticed that several rows of seats directly in front of him were roped off for some still-to-arrive

As President Obama’s ratings again slip into the low-to-mid 40’s, no potential Republican candidate is even close to capturing the imagination and fervor of the huge built-in anti-Obama sentiment inside the GOP, Tea Party and conservative movement.In fact, the candidates are failing so badly that unelectable names like Donald “I love Hillary and Bill and I have donated tons of cash to liberal

The impending federal government shut-down—which could happen at the end of this week or be delayed two weeks—demonstrates the fissures inside a very shaky Republican-Tea Party coalition.This is an alliance that will not last long. While Speaker John Boehner has so far bowed to his Tea Party freshmen, his instincts are not with them. He’d prefer to cut a spending deal with Harry Reid and

We are witnessing today—for the first time in American history—a roll-back of government at the state level and, perhaps even at the federal level, as well.This concept—limited and smaller government—has been the basic precept of American conservatism for decades. But it has never been enacted—even under conservatives. Ronald Reagan, our greatest conservative politician, as governor in California

1.) President Hosni Mubarak is a goner. The only question is: does he leave on a private jet to enjoy the American aid money he undoubtedly squirreled away overseas for his private use—or does he try to hang on and thus leave in a body bag?2.) Who and what comes next? Do the radicals—i.e. the Muslim Brotherhood—use this opportunity to seize power in the next national elections? (And, if they do

The Left’s immediate, knee-jerk reaction–led by the outrageously political statement by the sheriff of Pima County blaming this shooting on the political dialogue in our country—has been to somehow conflagrate the traditionally anti-Big Government philosophy of the talk radio community and the Tea Party Movement into being co-conspirators in this heinous crime.We didn’t hear the same left-wing

And that will turn the country even more sour about the economy, the future and the 2012 elections. • Articles will appear asking this question: has any incumbent president ever been re-elected with unemployment north of 7% or 8%?• While President Obama will not have a Democratic Party

As 2010 comes to an end, a few observations:1) TIME MAGAZINE proved its irrelevance and reinforced why it is in terminal decline by naming Mark Zuckerberg, the founder of FACEBOOK—featured in THE SOCIAL NETWORK hit movie this past summer—as its 2010 PERSON OF THE YEAR.

My first thought when the news broke on Monday night about the deal to extend the Bush Era Tax cuts: The Republicans secretly placed a new script on President Obama’s TelePrompTer: “I now love tax breaks for millionaires!”Barack Obama finally became an engaged President. He made a deal designed to get the economy moving by 2012 so that he can get re-elected. The fact that the Left hates this deal

A short and quick thought: the National Debt is going to drag our nation down and down into second-rate national status. It is a huge drain on our economy. The massive interest payment each year is the second largest item in our annual budget.Plus China, Japan and others–by buying our debt–acquire power over us. Not a smart move by us to have Beijing have an upper hand over us.And of course we

Here is a terrible conundrum: we all want our fellow Americans to do well, to be happy, to find the jobs they desire. We all want the economy to recover–and soon. But if that recovery happens, it is likely that Barack Obama will get the credit (presidents get the blame or credit regardless of what they do) and will be a strong favorite to be re-elected in 2012. Furthermore, his Big Government
