Romney wins big in Florida. In other news refrigerators lose big in Wasilla.

This from New York Times:

Mitt Romney rolled to victory in the Florida primary on Tuesday evening, according to early returns and exit polls, dispatching an insurgent threat from Newt Gingrich and reclaiming his dominant position in the race for the Republican presidential nomination. 

The commanding win by Mr. Romney offered a forceful response to the questions that were raised about his candidacy only 10 days ago after a stinging loss in the South Carolina primary to Mr. Gingrich. On Tuesday, Mr. Romney urged Republicans to begin coalescing around his candidacy and to focus on the party’s long-term goal of defeating President Obama. 

“How important is Florida?” said Mr. Romney, the former Massachusetts governor whose presidential candidacy effectively in a loss here ended four years ago. “Today it’s the most important thing in the world to me.” 

The outcome of the Florida primary promised to reorder the rest of the Republican field. Sensing vulnerability in Mr. Gingrich, Rick Santorum began running a new advertisement in Nevada and Colorado comparing Mr. Gingrich’s positions to the dual Democratic villainy of Representative Nancy Pelosi and Mr. Obama, saying his support for policies including the Wall Street bailout was “a slap in the face to the Tea Party.”

"A slap in the face of the Tea Party." Oooh that's gonna piss off a certain Grizzled Mama!

Gee I guess Todd's falsetto robo-calls for Gingrich did not help him one little bit now did they? The recipients probably thought they were being prank called by the neighbor's teenage daughter.

Wait, what the hell was that? I swear I just heard a godawful screeching sound coming from Wasilla!

And here I thought today could not get any better.

    Says that she will vote for whoever keeps the contest going. Her Faux Endorsement of NEWTON LEROY is comical. Her hair looked like she just got out of bed, hideous.

  6. Gingrich is now offering his speech that he will stay in the race and win due to "people power, not money power" along with a history lesson taking us back to 1863 when Lincoln spoke at the inauguration of Arlington Cemetery. And on to Reagan...

    So Newt won the country folks in upper florida and the swamp people below Orlando. Newt knows how to stir up the angst among the less sophistica­ted crowd.

    That is the very M.O. of the Republican Party.

    Newt, how about you? I know you're not done hearing yourself talk and "presidential candidate" sure does sound sweet. You've got the e*e of the t*ger (don't want to get sued) and a lot of rage yet to be displayed.

    What about you, Sarah? Think about how much money there is to be made. Another book deal. More free underwear for you and your husband?

    I'll bet you can out-Newt Newt if you put your mind to it.

    I have a theory about The Palin's support of Newter.

    I think they are starting to realize the money they've already grifted isn't going to last forever. They are after all Nouveau Riche or "New Rich" just like lottery winners. And most lottery winners are broke again in no time. The Palin's have been peeing money like it will never run out but the money hose is being screwed shut on them.

    They know and we know that Sarah can never mount a campaign for public office because the Hounds of Hell will be unleashed on her if she tries. This Presidential campaign was the last gasp she had to fleece her minions as after this, she won't be able to pretend to run again. No one will take her seriously.

    She's also lost her ability to summon up fake TV shows to enrich the family coffers. And her speech making career has dried up. All she has left is her FOX noise career and FOX has pretty well shown the world that they are just toying with her now and soon that will be gone.

    So what's a girl to do when she has developed rich tastes but she's running out of dough? She panders of course. And Newt was the perfect candidate for her. He was hungry for the little support she has left from the lunatic right wing fringe for a last ditch effort at a shot at the title. And all Sarah had to do to get his attention was to roll her eyes at him and wink. He's such a dog it really took no effort on her part. So Todd throws his support to Newt (Hey if Newt can get us to DC, they have way more high class hookers than Alaska does) and Sarah comes out supporting Newt, but coyly doesn't endorse him officially. She does everything on FOX News except stand on her head to get people to vote for Newt. Why? Because he offered her a way out of her woes. He's the life ring. He promised her an important part in his administration if he won. Well that could help not only with the money thing, but she'd be under the wing of the President. No law enforcement would come after her then, right? That's her thinking any way.

    So why not come right out and flat out endorse Newt? Easy again. Because he might lose and she will then still need a way out. When it becomes apparent Newt can't win, watch her do back flips to court the guy who wins the nomination. She still needs a job and protection. That won't work out for her though. Then the fun begins.

    So that's my theory.

    Don't worry Sarah, after your arrest, you can plead not guilty by reason of insanity. I think you'll find there are many of us who will vouch for your insane character. Spending the rest of your life in API wouldn't be the worst thing to happen to you.

They aren't thinking of him as "The First Dude" or that famous snowmachine racer, he's the guy who carries Sarah's purse (wherein is a jar containing his testicles). He carries the same negative reaction people have to his wife

    This should help Sarah understand how little influence she has with most people, especially the Republicans. She did everything she could do for Newt and it didn't help him, hell it might of made it worse for him. I bet we won't be hearing much from Newt about Palin after tonight.

    Palin will now find an excuse to explain her way out of not being able to help Newt. She may even abandon Newt and start supporting Romney now that it looks more likely he will be the winner. After all, she doesn't want to be connect to a loser because it will hurt her image and let everyone know she has lost her relevance.

    The Daily Show -- be sure to watch it tonight. Jon just did it once again -- stuck it to Romney on Bain Capital!! To me it was a 'Holy Crap' moment.

    Jon showed a piece of film of Romney saying that the country spending money that is has to borrow is bad for the country. The EXACT thing that Romney runs his campaign on -- his business experience -- which was EXACTLY how Bain Capital operated. Borrowed money to purchase and leverage companies and then tanked them withdrawing the mega millions of assets for profit.

    And she then sent out a religious message too...she said "a lot of darts and arrows that were flown in one direction and lots of dart and arrows were thrown back"!

    And the folks at "Crazies4Palin" were right...her dirty wig was a HOT MESS! The curls were half finished!

    It looked like her and Beefalo must have got into an argument while Beefy was curling it and Baldy pissed her off and Beefy told her "Finish it yourself!"

    And I can't even describe what she was wearing except to say she had to be smelly and stinking to high heaven after the interview.

    She was wearing the biggest shit brown stained scarf wrapped around her chicken neck and covering up her flat as a chalkboard chest!

    The fool was dressed like she was in a blizzard instead of sitting in front of a fake ass looking roaring fire!

    The hair tonight; no words. It looked curled with a curling iron without any styling or combing. Her hair was dishevelled. What does this mean?

    Her hair looks like it doesn't care and neither does she. Her answers to questions, her inconsistencies, her refusal to endorse or cooperate with her Fox peers in conversing in a happy tone. She's always in a bad mood.

    Is she declining help from friends and family? Looks like this woman needs a desperate intervention, but may be turning concerned relatives away.

    Can't Fox send someone to ask her if she needs psychological professional help? They are just as guilty by enabling her and ignoring the way she's looking and speaking lately.

  54. Gingrich's whole method of operation when he was Speaker was to feed the politics of personal destruction. That was during St. Reagan's reign. Newt did an immense amount of damage to the political climate in this country his first time around. He's still there. Sarah just ramped it up into incredibly vile racism, violence and hate. They are made for each other. Neither of them can complain about the political climate these days. They both were huge contributors to that climate.

    I did a lot of cruising around the web tonight on conservatives sites enjoying the tears and lamentation. There are a lot of comments along the lines of "Why won't Sarah Palin STFU?"

    A post at Ace of Spades was titled "Is Sarah Palin a Lame Duck?"

    The answers were almost unanimously "duh!"

    This was very typical: "Once up on a time I was a huge Palin supporter. I told my daughters that I couldn't wait until the day I could vote for her for president.

    "Now her voice is one of the rare things that can send me searching for the remote control while I'm comfortably seated on the couch.

    Not sure what happened other than the fact that everything she says is somehow self promoting. Her analysis seems pretty superficial as well."

    It was surprising how many former supporters seemed to have awakened.

    Meanwhile, over at C4P, there is some delicious infighting going on, as well as some people saying they're not giving money to a PAC that pays $5,000 a month for part-time clerical help.

Abortion ought to be a choice for women, period, not government. Planned Parenthood will need funding from alternative sources, my donations will go to them & not SK.

    Romney says he doesn't care about the very poor

  70. How about some updates on Crate Gate.

    Seems in an off the record disclosure two of Mitt's sons said Seamus ran away as soon as they got to Canada.

    They may or may not have caught him. There are reports that anywhere from a few weeks to a few months after the Canada trip, Seamus (may or may not have) been sent to live with Mitt's sister in California. Maybe because they had more space. Maybe because Seamus kept running away from the Romney's and ending up in the pound. (Who could blame the dog if he was being crated up all of the time. This according to Mitt. I'm sure Seamus liked that as much as he liked those car rides on the roof.)

    Check out dogsagainstromney.

    And the new definition of Romney. http://spreadingromney.com/

    Now he says he doesn't care about the very poor. They have a safety net. (That I'm sure Romney and his fellow Republicans will be dismantling as soon as possible.)

    If you want to gauge the true character of a man, you can do two things. Look at how he treats his Mother and look at the way he treats his dog.

    No loving dog owner would put their dog in a crate on the roof of a station wagon. They'd put ALL of their luggage and crap on top of the car so the dog could ride inside. DUH.

    This incident doesn't show cool crisis management. It shows callous disregard for a defenseless living being. It's insensitive. It's cruel.

    Sorta like all of those employees that Bain destroyed in their buy outs. Pensions gone. Jobs gone.

    Yeah. That.
