Mitt Romney is so far removed from how conservative Republicans perceive their representative for the party's presidential nomination should be that his winning could spur a break-off candidate.
Newt Gingrich looks the part to take this on if Romney wins the Republican nomination.

It seems the Tories simply can't get involved with altering contracts...it would be utterly unthinkable for then to intervene in RBS boss Stephen Hester's bonus. This is definitely a tricky one but the bottom line is that that bank is just not performing.
The interesting point for me is that whilst the Conservatives hold contracts in the financial services sacred they just take it as a given they can totally rip-up the contracts of all those public sector workers and their pensions agreementsSent using BlackBerry® from Orange

Why does Mitt Romney want to be President of the United States?
The answer doesn't seem as clear as it should. He'll say it's to restore America back to the way it should be or to save America from going under and never recovering, but still he's never really addressed why it has to be him to be at the top calling the shots.

The tories have outdone themselves this time. Somehow they think they've vetoed a major treaty that's actually gone ahead anyway leaving us basically out in the cold.
Our neighbours have gone ahead and done everything without us so all Cameron has achieved is to drive a wedge between us and Europe for no other reason than to appease his own party's xenophobic Tea-Party element.

It doesn't look that way. He's not getting any bump in the polls from them. But, why not? Their everywhere on television, showing up often during the highest rated shows and sports events.
The spots are awesome.

I know the Conservatives are a pretty paltry ever-dwindling bunch in Scotland but was this attempt to gain some cheap publicity or a way of finishing themselves off permanently?

Good old David Mitchell for laying bare the bonkersness of David Cameron's pathetic showboating over public services
That's precisely what David Cameron thinks about government. He simply can't understand what all the guys in headsets – the civil service – are up to. And he says it's not just him they're annoying – they're pushing past or obstructing the whole private sector.

This is just breathtaking...at the same times as devastating public services under the maxim "We are all in this together" they are cutting taxes for multi-national companies.
Sickening and vile. NEVER TRUST A TORY!
At the moment tax law ensures that companies based here, with branches in other countries, don't get taxed twice on the same money.

To Hampden last night, tuxedo-ed up and on best behaviour.
The SFA Grassroots Awards presented by McDonald's and The Sunday Mail.
Easy to be dismissive of the SFA and it's a target I'm loathe not to take a kick at when I think they deserve it.
Obviously problems with the development of young players persist.
