quick hits

Santorum paid tax
On nearly one million bucks
Man of the people

---------------

When Newt was Speaker
He was investigated
And had to resign

Now he refuses
To release the documents
From that period

He claims "wild goose chase"
Even though he paid a fine
And had to resign

Cleared by IRS
But unethical actions
Might still be legal

------------

Is Mitt in trouble
With Rick's surge in Michigan
Some favorite son

Santorum Surge?

Polls now indicate
Santorum threatens Romney
Just don't Google him.

Can Rick beat Barack?
Can Romney beat Santorum?
Does Gingrich matter?

The GOP race
Seems like a soap opera
Tune in tomorrow!

Short takes

A Gingrich staffer
"polished" wiki pages on
Callista Gingrich

The edits reframe
negative info about
Callista and Newt

Going back three years
Unabashed image upgrades
Conflict of interest?

Newt Gingrich's Communications Director Polished Callista's Wikipedia Page 23 Times

Romney says the poor
not his first priority
Maybe he's tone deaf?

Who Cares about the Poor?

Politics is all
About public perception
These guys don't get it

Florida results

Mitt wins Florida
Nearly a majority
Pretty impressive

Other candidates
Gingrich, Paul, and Santorum
Claim to be uncowed

Will they all survive
The whole primary process
Or will they drop out?

Next we get a lull
A few caucuses and then
it's Super Tuesday

It's somebody else's fault

Newt's declining polls
In Florida make him mad
"They're attacking me"

Not an insider
He insists.  Establishment
Party is at fault

Who does Gingrich blame
Everybody but himself
Is Gingrich paranoid?

Palin claims party
using Stalinesque tactics
against Newt Gingrich

Will he disappear?
Perhaps he'll get a show trial
Then darkness at Newt.

Gingrich lashes out at Romney, Establishment

Romney's credentials as a conservative

Mitt says he always
Votes for Republicans
Gingrich pooh poohs this

Voting for Tsongas
Back in 1992
Was it tactical?

"Factually incorrect?"
Does it make a difference?
Glass house resident.

Gingrich hits Romney for "factually incorrect" statements

Last GOP Florida debate

USA Today
Fact checks candidates
Florida debate

Newt really wanted
To mandate health insurance
Until quite recently

Mitt accused Barack
Of not denouncing Hamas
Attacks with rockets

Santorum used false
Massachusetts health care stats
To attack Romney

He also insisted
Islamic terrorists want
Cuban missile base

Clearly they choose "facts"
That they can bend to their will
Or else they're fibbers

Fact Check: Florida GOP debate

Space program?

Newt wants space program
Run by private enterprise
Corporate sponsors?

Soon they'll start saying
"All systems are Apple go,"
"We have Fox liftoff"

Will private concerns
Pay for such massive research?
"To the moon, Alice!"

South Carolina fallout

Newt Gingrich, Ron Paul,
Mitt Romney, Rick Santorum
Are Florida bound

Were Cain votes Colbert's?
Political irony
Or just "truthiness"

Will these primaries
Result in a clear winner
Or a big floor fight?
