The Republican Race Is Getting Democrats Excited About Voting
Take this with a grain of salt, but Public Policy Polling has posted some interesting numbers: Our last national survey for Daily Kos found that 58% of Democrats were ‘very excited’ about voting this fall, compared to 54% of Republicans.

Santorum Says Obama Might Force the Catholic Church to Hire Female Priests
Oh, no! This morning, Rick Santorum said that President Obama might force the Catholic Church into not treating women as lesser beings than men: This is a president who, just recently, in this Hosanna-Tabor case was basically making the argument that Catholics had to, you know, maybe even had to go so far as to […]

Shhhh! Gingwich Is Hunting Womneys

You Know Who Hasn’t Won in a While?
Rick Santorum, that’s who! So, naturally, Santorum is leading in two of the three caucuses held tonight—Minnesota and, especially, Missouri. Romney leads in Colorado, where he won in 2008 with more than 60% of the vote. Pertinent questions include: · Are we looking another Santorum surge right in the face? · Will Ron Paul continue […]

Obama Kicking Romney’s Ass in State Polls
Mitt Romney may be consolidating his lead in the Republican presidential primary, but according to Darryl’s meta-polling analysis over at HA, that hasn’t translated into a leg-up in the head-to-head contest with President Barack Obama.

New General-Election Poll Shows Obama in the Lead
Polls are meaningless when they’re this far out, but this is the first major national poll since it became apparent that Mitt Romney is the apparent Republican nominee, so let’s indulge for a moment: Barack Obama is up over Romney 51% to 45%. If, as the Republicans seem to believe, the entire race is based […]
