Chris, it is unfortunate that a third party, a conservative one, was not started by the Tea Party movement in response to the GOP Establishment. It looks now like the Republican Party has been co-opted by the “Big Government” Goldman Sachs Establishment.
But, will they be able to beat President Obama?
Doubtful – no matter how much campaign money they will throw against the LEFT.
In California, the GOP is moribund while independents are growing.
It is time to re-think the two party system for the next Presidential cycle AND in Congress.
In the meantime, conservatives should ignore Mitt Romney, the presumed GOP nominee for President and concentrate on the down the ticket races for the House and the Senate. The Tea Party can either block Obama out or Mitt Romney, the Massachusetts moderate in.

And, the federal budget deficit will continue to be over $1 Trillion.
The Congressional Budget Office said Tuesday that the economy would remain sluggish, with high unemployment, and that the federal budget deficit would exceed $1 trillion in 2012 for the fourth consecutive year.
The deficit will be $1.1 trillion in the current fiscal year, about $200 billion less than in 2011, and will fall sharply in the next three years as a result of tax increases and spending cuts required by existing law, the agency said in its annual report on the budget and economic outlook.
However, it said, that same combination of higher taxes and caps on spending will crimp economic growth. As a result, it said, the unemployment rate, which was 8.5 percent in December, will climb to 8.9 percent in the last quarter of this year, which includes Election Day, and will rise to 9.2 percent in the final quarter of 2013.
“We have not had a period of such persistently high unemployment since the Depression,” said Douglas W. Elmendorf, director of the Congressional Budget Office.
So, when you see President Obama giving rosy scenario speeches, ask yourself, what is he really doing about America’s economic problems?

President Obama is on a roll with his teleprompter.
I think he will have to do better with all of those unemployed voters with foreclosed upon homes in Clark County, Nevada.
Remember when the President ridiculed all of those corporate Las Vegas conventions and conferences, early in his Presidency?

I watched President Obama give a speech in Michigan this morning. He DOES deliver a good teleprompter served up speech.
Obama is charming and knows how to work the crowd.
But…. this does not work with governance and polict which have been a disaster for the American people.
Will candidate Obama be able to persuade voters to give him another four years?
Fool me twice….

Chris, it appears Damon is taking lessons from President Obama.
Look at yesterday’s video where Obama and Arizona Governor Jan Brewer got into it when the President arrived in Arizona.
Is the President now trying to look tough or what?
Must be the Chicago way…..

Chris, you say Obama’s pants are on fire?
Well, yeah, I guess you are correct. Look at his moaning on tax “FAIRNESS.”
Are wealthier Americans really not paying their fair share? Here are some numbers on income inequality:
1. The top 1% pay 36.7% of fed income taxes, earn 16.9% of adjusted gross income (as of 2009).
2. The top 0.1% pay 17.1% of taxes, earned 7.8% of adjusted gross income.
3. The average income tax rate for top 1% is 24%. The bottom 50%? Just 1.85%.
4. The bottom 50% pay just 2.3% of income taxes.
5. Buffett chose to leave most of his fortune to the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, avoiding 55% estate tax.
Read the other 6 points here.
President Obama’s pants are flaming…..
