Romney Focuses on Business Resume
Florida presents Romney with a personal business decision to make.
He has poured $35 million or more of his own funds into the race. While he has outspent his rivals on television in Florida, he is not advertising in Miami, the state’s most expensive media market. According to officials who spoke on condition of anonymity, aides have urged him to so, and in recent days asked him to commit another $400,000 or so from his personal funds to finance the effort.
Romney’s Wallet Keeps Him in the Race
Cash Is Major Asset As Some Opponents Run Perilously Low
A senior aide to Mr. Romney says the millionaire investor plans to spend as much as $40 million in the campaign.

But if Edwards comes in second and Clinton third that makes the headline “Bill Clinton kills Hillary in SC.” As I wrote on Monday, Hillary and Bill have reminded voters of what they disliked in the 90’s – partisan sniping and lying.
Why are there twice as many links in Rudy group of essential reads? In his desperate attempt to stay relevant he is promoting a candidate relief fund that all American will help pay home insurance for Floridians ! Doesn’t sound like a Republican proposal to me.
A security guard called police shortly before 1 a.m. to report a breaking and entering in progress. Police arrested Daniel J. Bradley, 28, and Michael J. Sauer, 30, both of Cambridge, according to the Suffolk District Attorney’s office.
Both men are scheduled to be arraigned today in Boston Municipal Court.
“When are speaking fees the same as royalties?
When reported on Huckabee’s ethics filings.”
Speaking fees and a salary of $40,000 from a communications business he created to manage his book sales were not disclosed on former Gov. Mike Huckabee’s statement of financial interest filed February 2007 with the Secretary of State. The former governor reported only that he received income greater than $12,500 from his state job, dividends and “book royalties†received by his corporation, 12 Stops Inc., in 2006.
But the greater detail required by the U.S. Office of Government Ethics of candidates for federal office completes the picture of Huckabee’s income his last year in office, revealing he earned $60,500 for speaking and the $40,000 salary from 12 Stops Inc. in addition to book royalties, which he said totaled $148,750. Add in his governor’s salary of $74,145, and Huckabee’s haul for 2006 could have been as much as $323,395 if all the royalty money was paid that year.
Has Huckabee violated state ethics rules by lumping his 12 Stops Inc. income under the heading “book royalties�
From one of the articles in the Rudy section:
“Between 1995 and 2000, for example, 308,000 people moved from New York to Florida; 119,000 more arrived here from New Jersey.”
That is 427,000 before 2001. Assuming similar trend in recent years, there are nearly 1 million NY-NJ transplants right now in FL. Now the question remains how many of them has changed their registration from Dem to Rep. If Team Rudy can turn out 500,000 he is almost assured of a win.

Nice to see Deroy Murdock has finally set his sites on McCain for a change. I guess he got tired of trying to dig up obscure dirt on Mitt.

McCain’s misstep referring to Putin as German President:
McCain has been fumbling his thoughts and words quite a bit over the past couple of years.
