		<title>Romney is going to win</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Bad news for Newt Gingrich: he isn&#8217;t going to win the Republican nomination. He&#8217;s still in the race and, yes, he&#8217;ll be able to continue for a while longer, but he&#8217;s as good as finished nonetheless. You see, February will without a doubt be Romney&#8217;s month. It&#8217;s likely that he will win every caucus / [...]]]></description>

		<title>Romney&#8217;s own ethics charges</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The Romney campaign has gone on the warpath against Newt Gingrich, and as they try to win the battle in Florida, a common refrain at every speech and in every ad has become that the former Speaker &#8220;resigned in disgrace.&#8221; The rhetoric is designed to give the impression that even if Gingrich didn&#8217;t resign as [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Establishment Fears Gingrich</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Dan Balz wrote a rather fascinating column for the Washington Post today: What is fascinating about the Republican race is that, in a matter of days and weeks, it has turned from the question of whether a stop-Romney movement would materialize to the reality that a stop-Gingrich movement now has taken shape. That&#8217;s certainly true. It&#8217;s [...]]]></description>

		<title>Gingrich&#8217;s fight for and against campaign finance reform</title>
		<description><![CDATA[With all of the baggage Gingrich has, the one piece that has been the most difficult for him to set aside has been the question over his participation in the Washington influence industry. We, quite unusually, find ourselves in the middle of an election in which the most burning concern has been the cozy relationship [...]]]></description>

		<title>It&#8217;s Not Over Until the Voters Say It&#8217;s Over</title>
		<description><![CDATA[There is a growing perception that this primary season is all but decided; that Mitt Romney is already the presumptive nominee. Indeed, our own Michael van der Galien is of this opinion. However, I must disagree with Michael. While things certainly look that way right now, there is a lot of time between now and [...]]]></description>

		<title>Jon Hunstman: The Man Who Had No Chance</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Politico is reporting that Jon Huntsman will end his campaign tomorrow and throw his support behind Mitt Romney. Honestly, it&#8217;s not a big shock. After a last place finish in Iowa, he rested his hopes on New Hampshire, but even there he couldn&#8217;t get second. And the next two states were not looking pretty at [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Republican attacks on Bain Capital are playing into Democrats&#8217; hands</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Mitt Romney&#8217;s opponents in the Republican field have taken to the tactics of the Democrats. They&#8217;ve started attacking his image as a businessman, calling him a &#8220;predatory capitalist,&#8221; and issue damning proclamations about his time at Bain Capital, a private equity firm he co-founded. The most prominent of these parries has come from Newt Gingrich, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Conservatives Have to Face Reality: It’ll Be Romney</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I do not, for one second, believe that Rick Santorum can defeat Mitt Romney (and, let’s be honest, nobody does except, apparently, for his own staff). As such, Romney’s victory in Iowa is very important indeed. It means that he’s now the true frontrunner, the guy to beat. But who can defeat him? Rick Perry will [...]]]></description>

		<title>Didn&#8217;t we go to Afghanistan to stop things like this?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Back in 2001 Americans were told that the Taliban represented a threat to the freedom of not just Americans, but the Afghans themselves. Their brutal regime turned that country into a thugocracy, stripping the rights of both women and men alike, but most definitely women. So we went in and toppled the Taliban. Yet here [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Downfall of Herman Cain is His Own Fault</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The downfall of Herman Cain is not an outcome that was not entirely unexpected, and the accusations of sexual harassment and affair are ultimately not to blame. All kinds of wild accusations get thrown around in a campaign season. If I recall, the last time around we learned that one of the candidates was a [...]]]></description>

		<title>Dear Ricky Perry: Getting Camera Shy is a Mistake</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Texas Governor Rick Perry is toying with the idea of skipping some debates.  His spokesman says it&#8217;s because there are simply too many.  I agree with that.  Now that the New Hampshire primary will possibly be held on Christmas Day (I kid!), the candidates need all the time they can get in front of the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Ding Dong, the Dictator is Dead</title>

With any uncertainty about his whereabouts finally gone, the National Transitional Council can finally begin the real work of rebuilding the [...]]]></description>

		<title>We Underestimate Occupy Wall Street to Our Own Peril</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Photo by David Shankbone I just read Kurt Schlichter&#8217;s column at the Washington Examiner with great interest (h/t @kesgardner), but a little bit of confusion. If I didn&#8217;t know better, I&#8217;d have come out it thinking that the Occupy Wall Street protesters were inherently different than our soldiers, as if all soldiers are conservative Republicans.

		<title>Robert Stacey McCain: Gentleman and a Scholar</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m a lotta late here, but I have to respond to to Mr. Robert Stacey McCain, who criticized me over my post from last Friday about Herman Cain&#8217;s executive experience.  I guess it wasn&#8217;t completely clear that I was criticizing the now non-existent &#8220;requirement&#8221; from 2008 that a good candidate for president should have executive [...]]]></description>

		<title>Iran&#8217;s Top Cop: I&#8217;m Blind to the Increasing Social Liberalism of Our Students</title>

This is usually made in reference to our current legal prohibitions on drinking for young people ages 18 to 21 and our legal [...]]]></description>

Ten minutes is all you need to spend to see how utterly disorganized this movement is. In short, civil rights icon and Rep. John Lewis stopped [...]]]></description>

		<title>Herman Cain: Great Resume, Good Sounding Ideas, No Executive Experience</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m not sure I understand this outpouring of support for Herman Cain. As Stacey McCain noted today, he&#8217;s had a meteoric rise in his polling numbers in the last couple weeks. That&#8217;s fantastic. Really. As CaseyGeorge in Stacey&#8217;s comments points out, Cain the only top-tier candidate that&#8217;s had little media coverage. Bachmann&#8217;s been the subject [...]]]></description>
