The primaries are always a time for predictions. This year one of those predictions is that the Republican Party will be divided after it is all over. However, whatever divisions the Republican party has will be resolved by the end of this year. That is because the Republican party will share one goal: vote President Obama out of office.
Right now, there is plenty of evidence that the party is divided. But after all, it is the primaries. There are a few candidates to choose from. While Mitt Romney has the slight advantage, not every Republican is keen on him
Primaries, Primaries, and More Primaries
by T Akery December 30th, 2011 | Political Polls, Presidential Election
Unfortunately, every four years brings a very unpleasant after-New Year's present, the Party Primaries. This year it is the Republican primaries. The Primaries often have a way of overshadowing everything else that happens before and after Christmas. This year's fight is no different from those of the past. It is a time of year that most people endure rather than actually take an interest in. Who can blame them? For the most part, it resembles an all out brawl but without any real physical confrontation.

There’s Something About Murdoch….

A recent “study” invoked in an article of the New York Daily News repeats the often-echoed claim that “people who get their news from Fox News know significantly less about news both in the U.S. and the world than people who watch no news at all.”
I must admit, I’m not surprised at the results of this “poll”—released by Fairleigh Dickinson University (who?). Disappointed, but not surprised. After all, competition brings out both the best and the worst in people—and often encourages smears of this kind.
Okay, here are just a few of the problems in the story:
The sampling is too

Ricky Perry Out, Herman Cain Still In
by T Akery November 4th, 2011 | Political Polls, Presidential Election
It is becoming pretty obvious at this point that Ricky Perry doesn't have a chance this election cycle. He is doing so poorly in the polls that it is unlikely that he can garner enough support to win even one state. His fall is definitely connected to his performance in the debates. It wasn't his views or his tax plan. His major downfall was when he tried to pick on someone bigger than himself, Mitt Romney.
Now, Romney is by no means a guaranteed victor when it comes to the Republican primaries. Especially not with Herman Cain hot on his

More Losers than Winners this Week
by Ronald A. Rowe October 28th, 2011 | Congress, Political Polls, Winners & Losers
Hmmmm. There were a lot more nominations for losers than winners this week. I wonder if that says more about the disposition of our panel of experts or the state of politics this week. You be the judge.
WINNERS:
Barack Obama –
The President had nothing directly to do with the death of Muammar Gaddafi, but it happened under his watch. That’s two major enemies of the United States of America killed in a short period of time, which is all good for the sitting president. He looks stronger on foreign policy and I’m pretty sure the Nobel people can’t take their
