Mitt Romney really wants to talk about the economy. Or at least he wants to talk about talking about the economy. The first major debate of the election cycle was more an exercise in wheel-spinning than anything else.

Howard Fineman appeared Tuesday on MSNBC's 'Hardball with Chris Matthews' to discuss Mitt Romney's performance at Monday night's GOP presidential deba...

How does the fact that conservative Christianity is coming out in favor of manmade climate change match up with the current slate of potential Republican Presidential candidates? Not very well, actually.
You can be a lot of things when you run for president -- slippery with your facts, loose with your zipper, overindulgent with the booze most of your adult life or in possession of a thin resume -- but you can't be weak.
Bachmann's biggest job right now is to convince political insiders who know her as a bomb thrower that she is more than a "movement candidate." If she is serious, she can't be the GOP's Dennis Kucinich.
To the chagrin of her less media-savvy opponents, feisty Michele Bachmann lives to fight another day. Long after most of these other candidates have vanished from the race, it appears likely she'll still be standing.
Monday night's GOP presidential debate in Manchester, NH was also a real snoozer, with more talk of God, gays and Obama than each other. Apparently these folks forgot that before they get to run against Obama they need to battle amongst themselves.

Barack Obama, who took office months after the Great Recession started, must be cursing his luck. Just at the point when investment and jobs normally would be coming back, the U.S. economy has taken a sickening swoon.
The White House protests that it inherited the economic wreckage from the Bush administration and has prevented wholesale collapse through bail-outs, the stimulus, and spending cuts. This hasn't had much resonance with a majority of voters.
Religious conversations may intensify over the next 18 months as the religious identities of candidates become scrutinized by the media and voters for clues as to who they really are.
Evangelicals have continued to be concerned by Mormonism. Google "Mormon" and "cult" and you'll generate over three million hits, many of which lead to evangelical ministries aimed at converting Mormons away from their faith.
