The Anti-Angle.

Much ado about noting[!]

WOE-Wae:
War on executives / War against evidence.

Romney charges Obama with "real war upon women".
Hides behind women against women.

CSM: Rosen: “What you have is Mitt Romney running around the country, saying, 'Well, you know, my wife tells me that what women really care about are economic issues, and when I listen to my wife, that’s what I’m hearing.' Guess what? His wife has actually never worked a day in her life. She’s never really dealt with the kinds of economic issues that a majority of the women in this country are facing, in terms of how do we feed our kids, how do we send them to school, and why do we worry about their future.”
CSM: "It's clear from the context that Rosen wasn't criticizing Ann Romney for staying home. She was criticizing the Romney campaign for presenting Ann Romney as an expert on the economic concerns of women, when Romney's own economic circumstances (including the fact that she was able to stay home with all five of her sons) are not those that most women have."

CNN: Rosen Apologizes !!!!!
Republicans better clean up their act or get out of the kitchen.

[Title is reference to Sharron Angle and her "press" encounters. Hilary Rosen used an inconvenient sentence unless it is about getting coverage. As opposed to Try Angle.]

Last Word: Banana Split? Mother's Day. Mitt Gap. Romney Rule? Florida v. Zimmerman.
The Ed Show: Biden Interview, N. Korea, GOP War on Women, Obama "hard work", Florida v.Zimmerman, Walker, Attack or Temp Late?

Romney Mumbles Economy

"It's coming back."  Cincinatti
verse us
Obama turns it around...in Cleveland.

[Comments filed yesterday:  Norman Goldman  President had congress**?  Mitt Robney,
If it is possible to be wrong in two dimensions, Raw Money might be able.  At least he is wrong twice in one claim in regards to Obama and the economic turn around.  But while two wrongs don’t make a right. Two rights do make a turn around, but not two lefts.  Well it is a matter of degrees.  (‘scuse me Mitt RobbedMe*) 

Anyway, back to the two wrongs, A.) the President can’t turn the economy around, congress passes all legislation.  B.) the economy has turned around.  C.) turning it around again will be the wrong direction.  D.) There is plenty of turn left.

There is plenty of dispute about how and how much to turn.  There is even plenty of dispute as to how much it was turned.  But there is no disputing that the economy has been turned around and it is still being turned.]
As for "Talk is cheap"? ** Just ask Wisconsin and the V.A., not to mention the middle-class and home equity.  Bubble-up is more economical than trickle-down.   

* Wed. & Thurs. openings
** not frackin' really

[Of course it was mumbled(aka nuanced), it was anachronistic, dependent on looking back.]
http://www.electmitt2012.org/ Quote: "Mitt Romney is focused on implementing a set of conservative principles to reinforce the America we once knew."

Mitt might just be me, but I find it hard to find the Cincinnati speech in full text or video.
Romney Pac Charlie Brown ads running on or from Congressional Budget acts.  Choice or Referendum?  Compare or Retreat.

The Big Dig

Ron Paul not so much.
Mitt Romney not so much.
Newt Gingrich, deeper.

Re-Group?

NOW, was that what I was talking about? Just teasing. Or "tough surrogate"?

Not having reviewed each of the links, nevertheless here are hints to my G'Ribble.
Under "Mitt Romney" there was a hint that the debate was "on a topic that he should dominate: the economy". Hence the "ledership" of The Big Dig? Investment in infrastructure anyone?

[Then there is the Laffer Curve of Regulation Job Growth. Which is my twist on not just the misuse of the curve, but the avoidance of* regulation. Regulation could be increasing jobs, if they were not avoiding the regulations.]

*the real laugher is in the "willing to report" and the needless "math genious".

Primary Boogeyman

Rule to the Exception.
Freedom / Hardball
Mitt Romney wins, Paul 2nd, Huntsman 3rd.
Gingrich and South Carolina next.
Huntsman ticket to ride or flavor of moment?

Yeah that's the ticket, but here is even more.

There is the old adage "divide and conquer",
but then there is the exception that proves the rule.
If Republican political calculus is anything, it is attack strength.
Economic Freedom is the key.
What it means, is the meme.
Absolutism may be the red flag of the Teddy Bull,
but the cape* of the progressive.

*Ctrl F "Nietzsche"

[Romney indeed made history as the first non-incumbent Republican to win both Iowa and New Hampshire, but given recent history, Fukuyama and the Neo-cons, it seems to fit the Primary Boogeyman frame, not to mention unprecedented Bush the Uniter.]

[1-11-12 CBS Christie Does Cynical Well, "Jersey-Style" **
CBS Poll Romney beats Obama,
Michelle Beats Anger.]
[My original intent here yesterday, was a Primary Colors reference, and a pun on Exception to Rule, not The Rule, but don't step on my blue suede shoes. (Reference post-**)]

[** I mean the Governor of New Jersey does "lame" well, if as Romney's "hit man" he is accusing Obama of not doing anger well.  Is that Neo-Boogeyman?  A flip-flop of the Doom and Gloom, and more of the Fear and Smear.  Governor Christie is the Sarah Palin with Lip Schtick.  Ouch, that was not to imply that he is a VP choice, but given the frame maybe.  When I use Hyperlink, I use Hyperlink]

[4a continued:  Freedom is not a tool***, but an end that doesn't justify economics.  This is my riff off of only the 1st paragraph of The Economist, on Economic blogs and "A less dismal debate." After reading it more fully(see ***) a funny thing happened on the way to the for 'em.  Actually it only hinges on the "tool" concept and the nature of "innovation" and the nature of economic debates.  Not that I have more than glanced at the debate example, but it also hinges on the nature of people as well as material or ideological forms.]
*** again note anacronism of 4m (see asterisks and bracketeds) as I evolved the post comma segment.[being in magazine 4m another one of the 4a.] (Note technical difficulties, uncertain if any threads or hyperlinks are lost, but I close in the middle of reading Marginal Revolutionaries in hard copy.)]

It must mean...

Mitt Romney is a moderate, because Republicans know that Obama is a moderate* and they try to take on strength** with strength.

Newt Gingrich is a Conservative*, because he is trying to out value or nuance Romney.

Is the Republican race the old circular firing squad of the Hamilton/Burr conflict?

*see five minutes
** Ctrl F "Rove".
[Against Romney Obama can move left. Against Gingrich, he can stay moderate. The checks and balances are between the branches, we need cooperation, compromise and more progressives in the legislature to get anywhere. Failing that, gridlock is a failsafe.

Mitt Romney on priorities.

Recent fund raising successes
have reminded him that he must
now put FRIEND$ up there.

Unable to find that clip, here is some "talk and dithering"
Not one action is noted in this message, unless it is to "free American people" to face it’s problems. Seems like the same old "talk and dithering".

Here I will update my Running List:
Obama
Richardson
Edwards
Dodd
Kucinich
Clark
Clinton
Biden

[4-24-07: sprucing up this post here and there,
with no subsantial change in content, I will note
that the "Running List" is in a particular order,
but unlike in the past I will not note the particulars,
except to say that past positions and current impressions
will play a part but with less explanation.]

Who Let the Dogs Out?

Original reaction: Not to Second Guess.

This idea coalesced from a Melissa Harris-Perry(*) panel and a Jared Bernstein reaction.
What irritated me was the piling on upon Mitt Romney. The second guessing was how Jared Bernstein discusses the context he was taken out of. As the panel on MH-P continued after her weigh-in on words via Barack Obama the segment on Word Police had nothing to do with my change, but everything to do with it; change and context and victim hoods. Not to mention "quote(s) from Nerdlandia" creeping into the X-change. (The hazzards of live blogging.***) I had no clue in the "footnote" controversy.** Am I falling for the spin, that Raw Money is a victim? Or do I forget my own theory of Share 'n Angle? Not too mention differences of intents[!]

[Segue/break: the "Dogs" above are "aTax dogs"; my subtle skirt of the issue.]

Regarding the president's speech, here are my rough notes:  Jobs.. core mission... rebuilding economy...stalemate...choice two views.  Top down- wrong...typical middle class tax cuts $3600... repeat $3600 Obama midle class tax cuts... for sake of misinformation.  We tried, slowest job growth, falling income, rising deficits... we can't afford more.  [me: we 1/2 tried more or other way].  People are with him, cut small business taxes 18 times, for 97% of them.  We should agree to do what we agree on!  [poor 1%, 2% 3%]  One year extention for under $250K then we can debate the rest and act or wait till after the election.  You are the ones driving the economy.  Learn lessons of the past, build foundation for the future.

[QCON of the day: Mitt Romney is not finished, obviously. But my point is that the three states he lost and Rick Santorum won, were all caucus states*. That is probably the biggest factor in concentrating the conservative interests, as well as what Romney and Gingrich have done to each other. ]
