© Tom Toles Did the first presidential debate really change things that dramatically? Or is the media jumping on this in order to keep the horse race close and attract election-weary viewers? Did Joe Biden’s debate performance stop the Democratic freak out? Or at least slow it down?

If you do a Google image search on “completely wrong” (or just click the link), you’ll get back a bunch of images of Mitt Romney. Some sites are calling this a “Googlebomb”, where social networkers deliberately attach a phrase to a person (the most famous being “Santorum“) But I suspect that this one was not […]

Robert Reich has two interesting new articles in his blog that you should read. The first one is an analysis of why Romney is losing the election. The conservatives are already trying to spin this as Romney’s fault. He is a bad politician running a poor campaign, and most of all, he isn’t conservative enough. […]

Romney once said that he always pays the taxes that the law requires — no more, no less — and “if I had paid more [taxes] than are legally due I don’t think I’d be qualified to become president.” But in his newly released tax returns, Romney deducted only $2.25 million of his $4 million […]

Jon Stewart on Fox News defending Romney’s video comments calling 47% of Americans “freeloaders”: I know they believe that the best defense is a (good?) offense, but um, seriously? “This is factually accurate, what Romney is saying.” ??? “I don’t understand what the controversy is. I think Mr. Romney should campaign on this point.” ??? […]

© Mario Piperni I keep thinking about something David Brooks said about Romney — “Personally, I think he’s a kind, decent man who says stupid things because he is pretending to be something he is not — some sort of cartoonish government-hater.” I think part of the reason Romney is turning out to be such […]

The media has been abuzz with the story of the leaked video of Romney at a fundraiser, writing off 47% of the US population as tax-dodging, government-dependent parasites whom he has no chance of convincing to not vote for Obama. I have to say that originally I found the story a bit silly. I felt […]

The Republicans picked Mitt Romney, because he seemed to be their only candidate who wasn’t completely crazy. And then he had to go and do this. A crisis in the Middle East erupts because some asshole idiot in the US makes a really crappy low-budget movie that seems to be designed solely to anger Muslims […]

Matt Taibbi has a brilliant article in Rolling Stone “Greed and Debt: The True Story of Mitt Romney and Bain Capital” that goes into considerable detail about how Romney’s company, Bain Capital, actually made money. Lots of money. The Democrats have attacked Romney and Bain Capital, saying that Bain shipped jobs overseas and made huge […]

© Ted Rall Grover Norquist famously said “I’m not in favor of abolishing the government. I just want to shrink it down to the size where we can drown it in the bathtub.” Will he get his wish?
