RINO roll call.

No time to go wobbly.

Up in flames.

Conservatives at work, Pelosi at play.

Buh-bye.

Wanted: Red meat.

What the…?

Graceful exit.

Maverick snit fit.

In case you missed all the fun last night, my liveblogging of the SC GOP debate is here. Reader Rick e-mailed his reaction to the debate and disagrees with my assessment of Mitt Romney’s performance (I thought it was lackluster).
I love your work. You are one of my favorites, but I didn’t see Romney as [...]

Update 2:38pm Eastern. Rep. Hunter is staying in the race. He blasted “knucklehead, arrogant” TV execs at ABC and Fox for excluding him from the presidential debates this weekend.
Good on Rep. Hunter for sticking it out. As he noted, he picked up one presidential delegate in Wyoming. That’s one more than many of the prez [...]

Update: Romney wins.
The former Massachusetts governor won six of the first eight delegates to be selected. Former Tennessee Sen. Fred Thompson and California Rep. Duncan Hunter won one apiece, meaning no other candidate could beat Romney. Caucuses were still being held to decide all 12 delegates at stake.
The win was a boost for Romney, coming [...]

Copley News Service follows Duncan Hunter on the campaign trail. Having skipped Iowa and pulling less than 1 percent, he’s soldiering on with a shoestring budget in New Hampshire. I like this quote:
“My motto in politics is never complain,” Hunter said. “My trademark for 26 years has been, ‘Don’t whine. Keep working.’ ”

I don’t want to slight Wyoming readers, so keep in mind that there’s a caucus there on Saturday:
Don’t forget Wyoming. It’s been overlooked in the hoopla surrounding Thursday’s Iowa caucuses and next week’s New Hampshire primary, but Wyoming Republicans will caucus Saturday and choose delegates to the national convention in September.
Candidates have paid little attention [...]

Report card.

Update 6pm Eastern. Much, much more at HA, plus video.
Update 4:35pm Eastern. Tancredo tells Cavuto that Romney’s immigration plan is “viable, that he’ll stick with it, and that he has the best shot.”

U.S. Rep. Tom Tancredo [...]

Poof!

Giggle.

Retired gay activist/Hillary supporter/Kerry supporter Keith Kerr = CNN potted plant.

Flag flap.

A rainbow of groupthinkers.

“Surrender is not a word in our vocabulary.”

Update: 4:26pm Eastern. USAToday’s Mark Memmott is trying to get Dems on record regarding the MoveOn.org smear. So far: Two non-response responses from Obama and Clinton’s offices.
More reax “The Peace Racket,” you should. This is what we are up against, people.
And milblogger Austin Bay weighs in on the testimony today, using the microphone failure as [...]

Quack. First question from Brit Hume…on Fred Thompson. Let the bashing begin…Hey, you should tune it. This is turning into a real debate. 11:59pm Eastern update: Leno to Fred…You came on [in the spring] to say you were testing the waters. You’ve been in the water a long time. Are you starting to get wrinkly? (Laughter).

A case of the slows.

WASHINGTON, D.C.–Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid and Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell made the following statement today:
“We met this evening with several of the Senators involved in the immigration bill negotiations. Based on that discussion, [...]

Update: Video highlights at HA.
Bottom line: No knock-out punches, no fireworks. None of the candidates have changed their mind on anything since the last debate. And they probably didn’t change any viewers’ minds about them tonight.
I remain totally….uninspired.
Debunking the AP spin: I see that the BDS victims at the Associated Press are trying to [...]
