The Competent Conservative

Gallup conducts a three-week tracking poll average with large sample sizes among the various ethnic/party/income subgroups to allow people to comb through the data and learn about what’s going on underneath the toplines. The hispanic subgroup for each three-week rolling average is roughly 490 people. Obama led Romney 67% to 24% among hispanics from May 21 [...]

Hmmm… This one’s sure to create some strong reactions one way or another. Speculation is growing that Liz Cheney is considering entering politics in Wyoming. She’s been visiting the state a lot recently and appearing with her father. She is currently a resident of Virginia but some are thinking she will move there to run [...]

Know the Seamus the Dog story? Yeah, thought so. Know this one? http://dailycaller.com/2012/04/17/obama-bites-dog/ Yep, Barack Obama ate dogs as a kid. So that’s it then. The Seamus story is going to backfire on Obama, as long as we all make it clear ALL OVER THE INTERNET that Obama used to EAT DOGS. He didn’t put them [...]

In today’s Gallup GOP national poll, Romney sets another 2012 record, polling at an astounding 42%! This puts him literally off the charts! Their chart only goes up to 40%, so Mitt’s data point for the day is not even displayed. What does it all mean? 1. The “etch-a-sketch” dustup was nothing but child’s play [...]

If this video is accurate, Rick Santorum is in a heap of trouble in Lousiana’s primary on March 24th. If true, he voted to protect the Bridge to Nowhere at the expense of Hurricane Katrina victims. I was unable to find the text of this amendment online. The one called Senate Amendment 2165 appears to [...]

I’m sure you recall Rick Santorum’s press release to the media which highlighted a Mitt Romney op-ed from 2009 where he wrote about health care reform. Rick Santorum led the media to believe, and has been running around the campaign trail claiming that Romney pushed for Obama to adopt a federal individual mandate. However, this [...]

This is a great reference for all your delegate allocation questions. After some brief consultation, I noticed that CA, NY, MD, DE, CT, MT, UT, PR, NJ,  and VA are all either strictly winner-take-all or winner-take-all if the winner gets a majority. That’s 500 delegates in the bag for Mitt, right there. He has about 100 [...]

Newt Gingrich was pleased with the Obamacare process in his May 2009 address.  He also called for an Obamacare mandate. If lots of people see this, it’s a game-changer. Here is the link below. Post it on Twitter, Facebook, and in comments sections of sites everywhere. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QSXJLZx5mpY&feature=player_embedded Send it to Drudge. He has more influence [...]

When times get tough, Newt Gingrich throws his allies under the bus. Ronald Reagan in 1986. His cancerous first wife. His multiple-sclerosis afflicted second wife. Paul Ryan. It’s a pattern.  A disturbing pattern that renders him an unreliable leader.

Newt Gingrich is trying to make inroads in the Floridian Latino community leading up to the primary. He’s doing so for a couple of reasons: Romney lost among Hispanics to McCain by a large margin 4 years ago, and  he knows Romney is to his right on immigration. Well, if the Cuban and Puerto Rican voters [...]
