Go Mitt Go is a very lame chant since it translates to Go away just as easily as Go forward.

This is the second time this fucknut has blamed the S&P downgrade on Obama - lying asshole, they specifically blamed Mitt's asshole buddies in Congress

This fucknut gives the same speech every primary night. Blah blah blah

Mittens can't get more than two sentences without the crowd interrupting him with a chant.
Also on taxes every gets a 20% cut, estate tax is gone, alternative minimum tax is gone so the Koch brothers can pay 0% in taxes.

Also possible news I'm pretty sure someone in the crowd just shouted no Ni**er in the Whitehouse. Not sure if he used the N word but it was defiantly We something White house

On MSNBC they have Michael Moore (Big suprised)
Line of the evening because of Rachel's reaction
"I've just heard that 35 advertisers have pulled out of Rush... I mean they have stopped supporting him, pulling out is a form of contraception but not a very good one and I well, what I'm trying to say is."

That will make the Daily show in a day or so

Chris Matthews actually said "Can we get freaking serious here for a second" - haha

Chuck Todd has an overall map and it's very interesting...Santorum is taking the entire Midwest so far, which doesn't bode well for Mitt, who took most of New England and the Mormon areas already, plus Florida - this may mean Ohio will stay Frothy. Gingrich has a tiny stronghold in the Southeast.

Something poetic about the Republican party pushing Lincoln into power in 160 against a Democratic race where the party tore itself apart over three candidates, and now it's the Republicans themselves ripping themselves apart over its own candidates.

Is there any candidate that is even slightly pro-environment? Or are they all like :finger: the environment, let's focus on petty things like abortionand gay marriage?

Fuck, even todays democrats are lukewarm on green issues.

Santorum is openly a global warming denier, all of them put energy independence as priority number one, Romney actually endorsed wind and solar but only alongside more of everything domestic including coal. Gingrich had mused before that he’d replace the EPA with a new agency charged with creating solutions not citations, which would be kind of logical except we know his solution would be no regulation at all. IIRC he’s also specifically against alternative energy as a evil liberal plot. None of them have made anything but the Keystone XL pipeline a big talking point on the topic. A couple of them have been denouncing the current controversy over EPA dust regulations now and then; but this topic kind of ambiguous in a dangerous way. Basically the issue is, would EPA dust limits aimed at power plants and other industry apply to farms, potentially making a dry field a massive liability. Democrats say no the law won’t be used that way, isn’t intended to cover this, Republicans want an explicit ban so its not at the discretion of EPA.

Basically the Republicans all seem to want to keep the general issue on the back burner because global warming aside, a large portion of the Republican Party actually does say they care about the environment in polls. So they'd rather say energy independence, and skip the details.

Get a mop, it's a Santorum blowout.

Anyway, there's no way forward for Gingrich now, so I expect all of his backers to disappear. Once he either becomes totally irrelevant and marginalized or drops out, Santorum will have a major chance against Romney. I don't see most Gingrich backers going to Romney considering the enmity between the 2 "men" so Illinois may very well be another vomit inducing Santourm blowout.
