Entry polls to the Nevada and Maine caucuses show Romney winning each

By a lot.  Nevada has its caucus today and Maine has its all week.



Money is gonna dry up soon for the others.  Romney can coast a little and start raising serious money,

Wait. What!?

Screen grab from the Giants website:

Oops.  I thinking Bill Belichick has already posted that sucker in every Patriot hotel room.  Kinda funny, really.  We all know they have no chance of actually beating the Pats!

I really think it is time for the US to leave the UN

During the cold war, it served an important roll as a means of communication and interaction between super powers so the chances were lessened that we'd blow the world up.  The UN has turned into a new bureaucracy that has reached its own critical mass.  Also, as was observed as far back as at least Julius Caesar, if you let the majority, who has less then the minority, govern, they will do nothing but try to take away what the minority has.  In case you don't realize it, we are the minority.  The great Global Warming scam is winding down, though that didn't stop the UN loonies from "imposing" a universal "tax" on us rich countries at Durban a few months ago.  And the whole carbon trading thing was a cover for having 'wealthy' (read: hard working, innovating and successful) countries being socialized to the lesser developed countries.  Well the UN is at it again.  This time they are being more blatant in their attempt to socialize the world at our expense:
The United Nations wants a world tax imposed on all financial transactions to fund a global model of social services that will provide “needy people” with a basic income, free healthcare, education and housing.

The drive is part of the UN’s mission to create a “social protection floor” under the auspices of the Commission on Social Development, which began this week in New York. The SPF will become the UN’s primary focus from 2015 onwards when the Millennium Development Goals project concludes.
“The money to fund these services may come from a new world tax,” reports the Deseret News, quoting Jens Wandel, Deputy Director of the United Nations Development Program, who said that a long term funding plan for the project would center around “a minimal financial transaction tax (of .005 percent). This will create $40 billion in revenue.”  ***
So I ask again, why are we paying for yet another attempt to fleece western taxpayers to fund their socialistic goals that are to our detriment?

Yet another reason for my political affiliation

Republicans have more orgasms. In fact, the more conservative you are the more often you orgasm. No really. Match.com did it's annual sex survey and this is what they concluded:
Republican Lead the Polls—In Orgasm

Yep, you heard that right. Republicans—and conservative Republicans, for that matter—reported the highest frequency of orgasm of all of the survey respondents, despite having the least amount of sex. More than half of those who identified as conservative Republicans said they reached climax almost every time they had sex, compared with just 40 percent of liberal Democrats. Sure, these answers are self-reported, but the survey was conducted anonymously online. What reason do they have to lie?

Enjoy the mild winter

Because everywhere else in the world it seems like this winter has been incredibly bad.  Snow on the Colosseum:

Want to escape to a sunny beach in Spain?
A thin layer of snow covers the sand on La Concha beach in San Sebastian, north Spain

Or maybe run your hands through the fountain in Trafalgar Square?

Tourists dip their fingers into the coll water which has frozen over in the fountains in Trafalgar Square, London. Parts of the UK have experienced temperatures as low as -10c during the cold spell

I blogged earlier about the all time record setting cold reading in Alaska and the European cold snap has been so severe, that it has killed 150 people so far.  No thanks!  I'm sticking with my little corner of Al Gore's world right.

Separated at birth?

Sargent Schultz: "I know nothing!"

Eric Holder when asked about Border Agent Brian Terry's death by a firearm supplied by Attorney General Holder's Justice Department:
"When you were informed about that within 24 hours, did anyone inform you or allude to the fact that the weapons found at the scene were from Fast and Furious?" Issa asked Holder.
"No," Holder replied. "I didn't know about Operation Fast and Furious until the beginning parts of 2011 after I received that letter from Senator Grassley, I guess at the end of January and then that was about Operation Gun Runner. I actually learned about the Fast and Furious operation in February of that year."

Now that I have declared the primary over, i will tell you the exact outcome of the general election

Romney 323 electoral votes
Obama 215 electoral votes

Romney in a landslide.  Actually, it is Gallup's prediction, but it seems about right.



It turns out there is one really good predictor of how a state will vote.  If a sitting President has a higher approval rating than disapproval rating, the state almost always goes for him.  Conversely, if the disapproval is higher than the approval, it votes against him.  So there you go.  Gallup says it.  I say it.  You can pretty much turn off all the talking heads right now and turn the back on after the polls close on November 6 and listen President elect Romney give his speech.
