RedState’s Leon Wolf has “thrown in with Romney”.  Don’t worry, he’s issued a pre-emptive apology for having induced and coronary events by doing so. 

Politico’s Jonathan Martin has Huckabee’s response to the push poll scandal.  I’m not sure I’ve ever read a weaker piece of denunciation in my life. 

Somebody once chided me for referring to the former Arkansas governor as The Incredible Shrinking Huckabee.  Here’s one reason why I refer to him in such a manner. Here’s another.  The Article VI Boys do their usual phenomenal job in parsing the details. 

All Da King’s Men provides some much needed comic relief. 

Everybody beats Hillary in Florida. 

The Atlantic’s Ross Douthat makes some interesting points on “faith based” politics.  It’s worth the read, but take time to read the whole thing thoroughly. 

Check out the “Presidential Cribs”.  Mitt has some fine residences, and it looks like John Edwards clear cut an area about the size of Wyoming for his monstrous home. 

Politico’s Allen and Martin have a good piece on the nano-second news cycle. 

The Cleveland Plain Dealer’s Mark Naymick writes on the state of Ohio politics. 

Mitt, along with most of the Presidential field, will be home for the Thanksgiving holiday.  Expect light posting. 

I’m fairly certain the term “9/11 Conspiracy Nutter” was left out of Ron Paul’s description for this poll. 

The Boston Globe’s Michael Levenson proves Mitt can’t give money to charity without catching some flack for having done so. 

One would think The New Republic would try and improve the quality of its content in the aftermath of the Scott Beauchamp debacle – to say nothing of the previous TNR scandals.  Evidently, TNR has no such goal as they saw fit to print a dubious article by Josh Patashnik where the author tries (and fails) to persuade the reader that there are many people who believe a Mitt presidency would be bad for the LDS Church. 

Sigh. 

I guess the only good thing about Patashnik being published in TNR is the fact that few people will read it, fewer still will understand what they read, and those that do understand what they read don’t matter much anyway. 

Yesterday, the NRO’s Byron York flogged the Mormon Question.  Today he’s flogging the abortion issue – yet again.  I’m not sure York will get many more Mitt interviews simply because York seems to be growing denser by the article.  Memo to Byron:  Here’s the bottom line:  The NRLC endorsement of Fred won’t matter much, because Fred is out of gas and has the glide ratio of a brick.  Who do you think they’ll line up with in a Mitt vs. Rudy race?  End Memo. 

And finally, you have to be very familiar with Mormon culture to understand the humor behind the Deseret Morning News’ Doug Robinson.  Well done, Doug.
