Voters, not the "leadership", will decide the candidate. Don't forget, the "leadership's" candidates lost to Marco Rubio in FL, Ted Cruz in TX, Mike Lee in TX, Deb Fisher in NE, Pat Toomey in PA, and Rand Paul in KY.

What to Cut Next

On average a retiree receives far more in Social Security benefits than he or she ever paid in Social Security taxes. With the retirement of the Baby Boom generation the Social Security system is now paying out about $50 billion per year more than it is taking in. The system is breaking down. Cuts have to be made. Means testing is the best solution.
Obama says we don't have a debt problem, so how could he justify seizure of wealth? Hmmm. Maybe his view on the debt could "evolve" into a debt crisis.

Why I’m Not a Conservative

Herman Cain had it right when he said the "-ations" are killing the economy: legislation, regulation, and taxation. Cain is a conservative; Ryan is not. A conservative would advocate a wholesale repeal of the statutes and regulations which are impeding the economy and robbing us of liberty; in other words, a return to constitutional government.
BTW, if Bill had written "to eventually apologize" he would have improperly split the infinitive. So, wrong again, AWL.

Like so many progressives, Sunstein undoubtedly got an A+ in self-esteem and an F in wisdom. He follows the Wilsonian pattern of self-adulation and contempt for the common man.
Obozo is hoping the buck will stop somewhere other than his desk.
I found "The Forgotten Man" disappointing. A much better treatment of the Depression is "New Deal or Raw Deal?" by Burton Folsom. Robert Sobel's 1998 biography, "Coolidge", is excellent. I doubt Amity's new book can improve on it.
