National Review Online’s Kathryn Lopez interviews Blogfather Hugh about his book.  Hugh mentions the upcoming hit job on Mitt’s Bain Capital days.  Figures though – Democrats hate any company that turns a profit.

Mitt heads to Michigan in April.

KSL says Mitt’s support is dropping.  Remember, guys, you’re counting poll numbers for people who aren’t in the race.  What I don’t get is GetReligion’s Daniel Pulliam’s excitement about the supposed drop in Mitt’s numbers.

Mitt heads to Hilton Head, SC.  I hear its nice there this time of year.

The Washington Times’ Suzanne Fields dissects some stereotypes surrounding the presidential contenders.  Everybody has a mold into which the press would like to shove them.  Mitt’s Mormonism is the only one they can find for him.

The American Spectator’s David Hogberg thinks using the word “Epiphany” will bring some new life to the already dead “flip flop” horse.  Sorry, David.  You don’t even rate a “nice try” label.  Do you expect presidential candidates to emerge from the womb with and iron clad policy paper in hand?  Where is your condemnation of Hillary for her shift from being a College Republican president to a radical leftist?  Better luck next time.

Howlin’ Mad Howie Deans Head Mitt Hitt Man Damien LaVera decries Mitt’s use of capitalism to recruit college kids to his campaign.  Its call an “incentive”, Damien.  It causes workers to be more productive.  Did they not require Econ 101 at your college?  Guess not.

Blogfather Hugh comments on Mitt’s fundraising.  Synopsis:  Campaigns run on money.  Mitt raises money better than any of his opponents and that edge will soon make a difference.

And finally, the American Thinker’s J. Peter Mulhern offers some unsolicited advice to Mitt.  He wants Mitt to focus on winning the number two slot behind whoever actually gets the nomination.  Americans want authenticity, says Mulbern.  They want someone who would be “hard-nosed and confrontational with all our enemies, foreign and domestic.”

Memo to J. Peter Mulhern:  The purpose of a primary is to let the party decide who will bear its standard in the general election.  I believe John Adams once referred to the office of Vice-President as a “bucket of warm spit.”  While it may be the best stepping stone to the Oval Office, its far too early for anyone to set their sights on the VP slot – least of all Mitt.  I believe it’s safe to say your unsolicited advice was appropriately filed in a circular cabinet.

And finally, today over at Article VI, John poses questions which, if the current Mormon Inquest continues, should be posed – repeatedly – to every single candidate for president.  Hillary and Obama better sharpen their pencils.
