Obama at WH Correspondents Dinner

Four years ago, Barack Obama won the presidential election amid a climate of economic strife.Today, the economy remains a top priority for most Americans, but not like before. People aren’t as afraid of a falling standard of living. They’ve settled into the poor economy, they’ve seen that we will survive, and perhaps most importantly, they’re not coming off the heels of a failed Republican presidency. The latter of which is likely the only reason the Democrats were able to get a one-up in 2008 to begin with.  Read more >

After coming away victorious after his first elections without significant competition, GOP frontrunner Mitt Romney didn't take long to make the inevitable pivot we all knew was coming.
