you know what's a good way to get people to boo? ask them not to boo

CNN shot of Bill Kristol and Bill Buckley doing Jaeger shots at CNC bar.

How quickly things change. A month ago, Republicans were fretting about this. Now, Democrats fear a brokered convention. What a(n entertaining) circus that would be.

RIP MITTMENTUM

I was hoping Mitt would stay in longer so I could make a hilarious photo shop of "Mitt" as the Hamburger Helper mascot feeding his huge Mormon family.

Now cracks a noble heart. Goodnight, sweet Prince.
And flights of angels sing thee to thy rest.

Did he take a laxative to help pass it?

Romney already saying he'll be back for 2012.

Mackro, do we have to explain the difference between depth of enthusiasm and number of enthusiasts?

Romney's going to run against McCain's reelection campaign in 2012?

Start early, I figure.

And now, what we've all been waiting for -- Hugh Hewitt, with love in his heart.

Governor Romney is an incredibly gifted man --intelligent in the way very few people are, charismatic, and blessed with an amiable openness and determined, strong character, shoulder-length, sun-streaked blond hair, sparkling blue-green eyes the color of the Caribbean, cameo skin, and a perfect size-six figure.

god what a dicklicking lunatic hewitt is, it's really unbelievable.

he gives dicklicking lunatics everywhere a bad name

apparently none of the money MoveOn raised for Obama in the past 2 days was included in the 7+ mil total they trumpeted today, so we should expect to hear the Obama fundraising till to ring again soon. And to think that MoveOn was founded in large part to protect the Clintons' interests... heh.

haha sry that did come off kind of homophobic xp

but i mean shit:

Forty years later Mitt Romney's campaign did take off, came very close to success but fell short, and unlike George Romney's campaign then, Mitt Romney's campaign of the last 14 months is really an opening act for a role in the leadership fo the GOP that will continue for years to come, and Senator McCain will almost certainly look for help from the Romneyroots as the GOP will this year and in the years ahead.

what a load of utter frantic craziness. not a sentence here comports with reality at all.

Hugh Hewitt now:

guys should we start a new thread? i think the loss of mitt calls for one

Not until the last Ron Paul fan on earth has shuffled off this primary coil.

When I think of the GOP as the party of "MEN" (as some of my conservative friends are fond of saying), I think of some of their leading pundits and thinkers, e.g., Hugh Hewitt. It reminds me that the GOP is often really a party of pampered armchair warriors who want to feel macho and tough. Maybe that isn't fair to Hewitt, I don't know much about him, but I'm thinking of fellows like Glenn Beck, Sean Hannity, and even some conservative-leaning pundits in the MSM.

*cough* Jonah Goldberg *cough*

*cough* Yes *cough*

are you guys getting prostate exams over there or what

keep Hewitt and Goldberg away from our prostates.

Prostate exams? Is it Friday already?

Clinton's gonna win NM - she's up 1,000 votes with 1% left, and it's coming from a district that favors her. She won in the more Republican part of the State.

can we continue discussing Hewitt?

Like Reagan In '76, Romney Is Staying In

As I wrote below, the GOP needs to keep the MSM focused on the issues that unite the GOP, and the best way to do that is by a series of contests throughout the spring, from Virginia to Pennsylvania and beyond. Each state that has a primary scheduled deserves the attention of the big three candidates, and the results will help even the frontrunner Senator McCain calibrate his message and provide opportunities for him top assure the base in each state he travels to of his determination to run as a conservative even as independents see him on the nightly news.

Was it a good thing for the GOP when Ronald Reagan stayed in the race against Gerald Ford in 1976 even after the Californian had fallen far behind Ford in the hunt for the nomination?

Most people say yes, even though at the time many were demanding that Reagan exit stage right.

Okay, so Hillary's staff *are* getting paid after all.

Wait, is Romney out or in?

Or somewhere in between (i.e., nominally in, but really out)?
