2012 Power Rankings: January 17th Edition |
In just three days, Barack Obama will formally take over as the 44th President of the United States, and while we still a long way from the 2012 campaign season, its not too early to take a long at which Republicans are most likely to challenge Obama four years from now. Of course, the length of time between now and the start of the next election make these kinds of assessments preliminary. Its possible, even likely, that the rankings will change several times before the Iowa Caucus in 2012, but, for what its worth, here is the first edition of the 2012 CTR Power Rankings:

I’m sitting here watching Fox, and they just did the whole “Houses” theme again. I mean freaking give me a break, the moniker for the Dems is DO NOT SUCCEED. FAILURE IS BLISS! Welfare for EVERYONE. I mean how can people NOT see this?
Just a passing thought that I had to get off my chest…now you run with it!

I just love this man, listen to him speak. He’s just fantastic. I’m so glad that I’ve been a part of this whole campaign experience since before he announced he’d run for President. I’ve had the absolute time of my life. Oh, and by the way I’m heading to Missouri for Sunday’s Rally in O’Fallon Missouri
This Isn’t About Race???August 27th, 2008 | 5 Comments | Posted in Barack Obama, Charles Barkley, Convention, DNC, Democrats, John McCain, Republicans

Obama keeps saying this isn’t about race (although he plays the race card mighty well…i.e. funny name, picture on money not the same, etc comments)…but, what the heck? Charles Barkley always talked about running for Gov. of Alabama as a REPUBLICAN, so why in the world is he in Denver? Just listen to him talk.
[Update: Barkley apparently “defected” from the Republican Party…I guess I haven’t kept up with him enough lol See: Charles Barkley: “I Was a Republican Until They Lost Their Minds”

George Hussein Onyango Obama
UK’s Telegraph reports that Barack Obama’s brother is living in Poverty…
From the article:
Mr Obama, 26, the youngest of the presidential candidate’s half-brothers, spoke for the first time about his life, which could not be more different than that of the Democratic contender.
“No-one knows who I am,” he told the magazine, before claiming: “I live here on less than a dollar a month.”
and
He told the magazine: “I live like a recluse, no-one knows I exist.”
Embarrassed by his penury, he said that he does not does not mention his famous half-brother in conversation.
“If anyone says something about my surname, I say we are not related. I am ashamed,” he said.
and
For ten years George Obama lived rough. However he now hopes to try to sort his life out by starting a course at a local technical college.
He has only met his famous older brother twice - once when he was just five and the last time in 2006 when Senator Obama was on a tour of East Africa and visited Nairobi.
The Illinois senator mentions his brother in his autobiography, describing him in just one passing paragraph as a “beautiful boy with a rounded head”.
Of their second meeting, George Obama said: “It was very brief, we spoke for just a few minutes. It was like meeting a complete stranger.”
and
“Huruma is a tough place, last January during the elections there was rioting and six people were hacked to death. The police don’t even arrest you they just shoot you.
“I have seen two of my friends killed. I have scars from defending myself with my fists. I am good with my fists.”
Commentary:
It’s incredibly amazing and hypocritical of some in the media that went after Mitt Romney’s Grandfather’s polygamy when we have a presumptive nominee of a major party who’s father was a polygamist and has multitudes of children living in poverty in Africa. Why isn’t Barack taking care of his own destitute family members???

Here are a few stories that might be of interest to our viewers:

Controversy precedes Obama Germany visit
That possible affront to a German head of state, said a Democratic official familiar with the Obama campaign’s deliberations on his visit, made it unlikely Obama would choose the Brandenburg Gate location.
“Obviously Brandenburg is the sexiest option,” the official said
Sexiest? That’s quite an interesting assessment of a historic landmark. Maybe Mr. Obama and his staff are unfamiliar with what went on there…I find the term sexiest to be quite inappropriate, but hey that’s just me.
German Chancellor Merkel’s office argues that allowing Obama to speak before the gate, long a setting for speeches by heads of state, would be tantamount to offering the Democrat the endorsement of the German government.
You tell ‘em Chancellor!
What about Bob? GOP mum on Barr
