“[Rand Paul] has made America weaker and more vulnerable and he has done it for his personal gain and he has done it to raise money.” ~ Chris Christie, at the Romney retreat.

According to Carly Fiorina, "feminist" is a term the GOP needs to take back.quote:“The left has controlled this conversation,” she said on the press call. “They have defined the term ‘feminism’ and ‘feminist’ in a certain way. And I think it’s important that we reclaim that term.”

Here is the candidate tracker that was asked about earlier. Here are the two blogs. Here is the news conference announcing the Iowa Straw Poll being cancelled.. Martin O'Mally In Iowa City yesterday. 6/12 candidate tracker Mitt Romney's retreat sounds like a good time. Not only are six candidates going, but look at this list: quote:Among the high-profile guests: David Axelrod, a former adviser to President Barack Obama; New Hampshire Sen. Kelly Ayotte; Yahoo news anchor Katie Couric; former Defense Secretary Robert Gates; General Electric CEO Jeffrey Immelt; Walmart CEO Lee Scot; former NBA commissioner David Stern and current Hewlett-Packard CEO Meg Whitman. Here is the Salt Lake Tribune on it. Rand Paul is in Orange County tonight to speak at a dinner. Flag Day dinner that is. Bernie Sanders speaks at Drake University at 7PM. Chris Christie's "Tell It Like It Is" town hall tour was in Cedar Rapids, IA today. Des Moines Register reporter live tweeted the event. It was also live on MSNBC, but I can't seem to find a recording of it. Huckabee is swinging through South Carolina. He won't be meeting Bobby Jindal for prayers tomorrow. Also I'm not going to hunt for interviews with candidates that day. Just looking up the known campaign stops is enough of a pain.

Jeb Bush was endorsed by 11 of the 17 Congressional Republicans from Florida today. Quite a coup and a problem for Rubio. Jeb decided to thank some of his new supporters by tweeting out pictures of them. Here's the one he originally used to thank Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen.  He deleted that and decided to use a different photo for some reason.

Also, if he's eating at an In-and-out, chances are there are plenty of DREAMers nearby (due to the geographic locations this chain is most prominent in).

I wouldn't say it's any more of a problem for Rubio than running against Jeb in the first place. There was no way he was ever going to get endorsed over Jeb by any Florida GOP guys. It's still Jeb's party down here. I mean, I guess there might still be one or two Crist Republicans. As for Voldemort Republicans, there are none because nobody likes him.

As said before she is keeping stuff small and controlled with hand picked people. Most of her events have been hosted by the big money in the cities/counties she has stopped in. Her first real event will be huge, but I do know a lot of Dems in Iowa who are grumbling about her campaign.

A show is demanded, amuse the Iowans, make them feel important, lie to them like you mean it when you say you care deeply about corn and corn products. Why the great state of Iowa certainly isn't a shithole that will be ignored for the next 3 years for good reason. A place that fewer Americans can locate on the map than can properly locate Iran. A place whose only consequence is founded on a farcical effort to prove to everyone else that they totally matter.

For all of the talk about Hillary's weaknesses in the general and concerns about taking Obama's approach I think people are seriously underestimating the ground game Hillary is going to have, I can think of a dozen people that aren't even particularly active in politics that are willing to campaign like crazy for her, like pound the pavement like crazy. I saw it with Wendy Davis in Texas, as a campaign volunteer none of us were delusional enough to think that she was going to take the state but people saw it as training for Hillary, I think you will see Hillary pick up Obama's minority voters again as well as roping in a ton of fervent female and gay volunteers. Keep in mind that a lot of the minority Obama volunteers were crazy for Hillary, I saw first hand that many of them would have been even more excited if Hillary had one the primary.

I just think it is weird how the media always focuses on the evasiveness of the Clinton's and how she is going to have trouble connecting with a larger voting base... 25-40 year olds have nothing but fond memories of the Clintons that goes back the seeming idyllic 90's along with a healthy pushback about the social conservatism of the time and I don't think I have ever heard a non-crazy conservative older woman that will say a single bad thing about her. I don't think there is any reason that she isn't going to have an army working the ground for her with a fervent and numbers that don't rival or surpass Obama.

To be clear, the NYT story that started all of this was little more than a vehicle for red state Democrats to complain that they're no longer relevant. And they aren't. That's true. Bill Clinton won West Virginia. Hillary Clinton is not going to win that state. When Joe Manchin retires he'll be replaced by a Republican. The Democrats can't win there any more, and they can't win in Arkansas or some of the other states that Bill won in 1992 because it's no longer 1992. Fortunately for Hillary, they don't need to.

I've heard that her style for the primary at the moment is more reminiscent of how she ran her run for Senator in NY, preferring to do lots of very small events throughout the state than just doing one big event.
