Short Takes

Posted on 13:36 by amla
Hostile Takeover
Howard Fineman over at HuffPost drew the correct analogy, the Romney campaign looks more like a hostile takeover of the Republican Party than politics. Big money used to convince the shareholders to vote against their own interests combined with an arrogant "Suck it, Losers" attitude towards the opposition. This is just businessman Romney running his campaign as if it were a corporate buyout.

I'm Scared
California may actually be in play this year for the Republican primary which mean we will be inundated with multiple millions of dollars of vicious attack from Romney and his puppet SuperPAC. Television and radio will not be safe places.

They Fibbed
Republicans in Congress are reneging on the budget deal they signed onto last year. Republicans lied? Color me shocked!
