And then there were three..
With all of the twists, turns, and controversies in the Republican race for the 2012 nomination, it’s amazing we have come to this road: Ready in Iowa, caucus goers tomorrow are about to end the pronouncements, announcements, corny catch phrases, and all of the mixture in between. Newt Gingrich surged. Herman Cain purged. Michelle Bachmann splurged.. and Ron Paul merged–as a front runner–with Mitt Romney. Rick Perry crashed and burned with his inability to remember his own talking points. And now, as the Iowa season comes to an EAAARRRLLY end (really, January 3 WE BEGIN THIS!?) Rick Santorum is getting perhaps his last shot for primary victory.. new polls show him gaining immense momentum.
Would anyone have thought Rick Santorum and Ron Paul would be the main challenges to Mitt Romney’s assumption of the nomination? The establishment may let them have a victory or two in Iowa and New Hampshire. But then expect the machine to begin pumping out the ads come South Carolina, Virginia, and other big states that the Nomination in Waiting can’t begin to think about losing.
It all starts tomorrow.
Power to the people.
They caucus the best of all. -

Don’t look now.. but Kathy Griffin is practically naked
Lots of people don’t watch CNN.. or their coverage of new years eve.. but if you missed it this year you didn’t catch Kathy Griffin surprising Anderson Cooper by stripping down to her undersomethings.. she said to Cooper that if Lady Gaga can do it so could she. And she did.Kathy Griffin may be the one thing that makes CNN’s yearly cover somewhat worthwhile. Clothing or not. -

Great shot
Happy New Year everyone! (Photo by Kena Betancur, Reuters)A moment in time, snapped by a photographer at the right place at the right time.. under the confetti .. under the weight of the world. -

We seem to be making strange things on New Years a common thing
Once again, thousands of blackbirds fall down dead over Arkansas town
And yes it was after New Year’s Eve fireworks.. Perhaps for beginning to see a pattern -

While you were celebrating ..
A quick reminder.. while you were sleeping, drinking, or celebrating, President Obama was busy signing. Even though he has reservations about the National Defense Authorization Bill, he signed it anyway. And sure, new rules will allow military forces to swoop in and take Americans to undisclosed locations.. but the President said not to worry: He will not go ahead and do that to Americans.
Trust.2012 is about trust.While you were sleeping…. -

Right back where we started.. Big quake in Japan.. more birds dying in Arkansas. I thought this was 2012!?
Once again, thousands of dead blackbirds rain down over Arkansas town.. And yes, it was after the fireworks again
.. It feels like groundhogs day. After the year we just had, 12 months of hell and high water, we start this way?
An earthquake in Japan, an earthquake in New Zealand.
And to top that all off, now we have this thousands of dead blackbirds! I’m feeling like we are right back where we ended..
