By Georgeann King, on April 15th, 2012 Good news for Republicans! The Rasmussen Reports 2012 Daily Presidential Matchup Tracking poll has Romney leading Obama 48% to 43%.

By Georgeann King, on March 29th, 2012 It becomes clearer and clearer what Obama’s campaign plan will be: War.
Every day the president is declaring war on someone. Today it was the oil companies. Previously it was Wall Street. Earlier the Catholic Church. He certainly has been warring with the military, decimating their ranks and reducing their coverages. Insurance companies and doctors
