    • GOP Debate Reaction February 23, 2012
      Tonight's Republican debate was easily one of the worst of the presidential campaign.Mitt Romney was armed with opposition research on Rick Santorum but didn't come close to a knock out. The audience -- which was definitely slanted towards Romney -- helped cover for many clumsy mistakes. His attempts to throw red meat to conservatives exacerbated h […]
    • The Last Debate? February 23, 2012
      The Fix: "First, this might be the final debate of the GOP presidential race -- or at least, the last debate for a while. There are no other debates scheduled before the real Super Tuesday on March 6, and Romney's campaign has not committed to a planned March 19 debate in Oregon. Indeed, Romney's campaign looks as though be done with debates a […]

      "It is not accurate to say that a hotly contested convention is necessarily bad. I am not saying it is necessarily good, but I don't think it is accurate to say it is necessarily bad. Let's just see."-- Haley Barbour, in an interview with ABC News. […]
    • Poll Shows Santorum Ahead in Michigan February 22, 2012

Another 12% are either undecided or refused to answer. Said pollster Bernie Porn: "Among GOP voters, Santorum leads Romney by 41%. Among Independent voter […]
    • Is Arizona a Swing State? February 22, 2012
      President Obama's re-election campaign says they will compete hard in Arizona and a new Public Policy Polling survey suggests they should.

He leads Ron Paul and Newt Gingrich each by 4 points, 46% to 42% and 48% to 44% respectively. Th […]

    • Newt Gingrich's Fantasy Campaign—and the Fictions That Gave Rise to It February 22, 2012
      His ideas may seem merely grandiose, but they reveal the deep affinity between American conservatism and one branch of science fiction. Stagnating in distant third place in the national polls, is there any way Newt Gingrich could still win the Republican presidential nomination? Hell no, would be the response of most pundits and pollsters. But here's th […]

    • Dear Ezra: Wall Street Was No Match for a Liberal Arts Degree February 21, 2012
        Last week, Washington Post columnist Ezra Klein posed a theory: Graduates of elite schools default to Wall Street jobs because of the familiar recruiting process and useful on-the-job training, which he claims better prepares recent graduates for the real world than their degrees. It is this, and not the high salaries, that attracts our nation's brigh […]

    • Nihilistic Entertainment System: Retro City Rampage February 21, 2012
      Currently getting owners of the PS Vitalite’s expensive knickers in a right old twist, parody open-world carnage game Retro City Rampage will also be careening wildly towards PC with a bloodythirsty look in its pseudo-8-bit eye. Essentially it’s GTA 1, if GTA 1 had happened five years earlier and was a mash-up of locales and abilities from assorted touchston […]
