For those who have been following, I predicted that Newt Gingrich would win the Republican nomination. Conventional wisdom is telling us that Romney's big win in Florida has all, but cemented his victory in this race.
Possible, yes.......Likely, maybe.....Inevitable, absolutely not!
Romney's victory was strong (double-digits). His campaign is most certainly going to get a immense bump of momentum leading into the February caucus & primary races.

- Free (twice)
- Freedom (once)
- Opportunity (once)
- Achieve (once)
- Achievement (ZERO)
- Success (three)
Also missing from the speech were the words: KeystoneXL, Solyndra, or (with exception to a short, vague reference) Obamacare - his SIGNATURE legislative accomplishment!

Seriously, are you kidding me? This administration has placed the kowtowing to his kook-fringe environmentalist-wacko liberal base above the economic interests of Americans (both Republican and Democrat)! Then, in a sheer moment of gall, they blame Congressional Republicans for not giving them the "time to make the decision"!
Here's the story from National Journal.
So let's make the simple points for His Highness....
HeyPrezBO!

Organizers planned for a rally that they'd claimed would be the "largest gathering of Occupy protesters so far" - expecting up to 10,000.

It appears that PrezBO's token rich-guy shill (Berkshire-Hathaway CEO Warren Buffett) is at it again! This from Reuters.
During 2011, Buffetts was "toting water" for the administration complaining that his own tax rates were unfair and "too low". Accordingly, he claimed that he and "many of his rich friends" supported plans to increase their taxes.
