MUTH'S TRUTHS 10/25/2011


THE FURTHER ADVENTURES OF MARK SUREWOULD

Assemblyman Mark Sherwood (Surrender Monkey – Henderson) was negotiating this weekend with New Hampshire Secretary of State Bill Gardner in a joint effort to get Nevada to move its presidential caucus date….and decided to see what all the fuss was about overHerman Cain’s former Godfather’s Pizza operation. 

So Sherwood stopped in at the Chichester, NH Godfather’s store on Dover Road and ordered a small pizza Saturday night.  The young man behind the counter asked the Nevada GOP Assembly “Messaging Chairman” if he wanted it cut into four pieces or eight. "Four, please," Sherwood said.  "I could never eat eight!"


JERSEY SHORE FOR “HOT” POLITICAL ACTIVISTS

Got this email yesterday. I think it’s pretty self-explanatory. 

Doron Ofir Casting, the epic star making company behind Jersey Shore, Nashville Star, Millionaire Matchmaker and The A-List officially confirms and announces the nationwide search for political activists with personalities that rally behind a cause and influence others to do the same.

“It’s about time we give a mainstream media opportunity to the generation that has the fortitude to proudly live as a representative of their individual political beliefs. What could be more American than that?” Doron Ofir – Executive Casting Director.

Doron Ofir Casting, in association with a major cable network, is looking for young hot politicos who care about America, follow the heated debates, rallies, protests, and scandals! We are looking for people of all party affiliations or those who are unaffiliated as long as you’re outspoken, fearless, free thinking, unbound, unleashed, unrestrained, appear to be between 21-35 and are politically active and telegenic. WE WANT YOU!

You’ve volunteered for a local political campaign, stood in protest, logged over a thousand comments on blogs, tweeted Fox News or CNN on a daily basis, you run your own blog, vlog, stream, podcast, and are still looking for the right forum to express yourself.  Whatever the case, we want to hear from you!

With personalities such as Ann Coulter, Bill Maher, Meghan McCain, Rachael Maddow, Keith Olberman, Glenn Beck, Jon Stewart, Arianna Huffington, Rush Limbaugh, Michael Moore and Bill O’Reilly influencing the world of politics and dictating our national conversation, shouldn’t it be your turn?

POLITICAL DERBY UPDATE

Jason Wright’s Political Derby updates on the GOP presidential race are always entertaining and informative.  Here are his latest Power Rankings:

1. Mitt Romney
Despite his most criticized debate performance to date, Romney increasingly exudes an aura of inevitability. He is suddenly contending in Iowa, a state he’d reportedly written off like an ugly cousin to her prettier pal, New Hampshire. If Romney wins IA and NH, it’s race over.

2. Herman Cain
Cain leads some state polls and recently won the Nevada straw poll. However, he is approaching Bachmann territory on the gaffe scale and probably needs to sort out his own apples and oranges before trying to explain them on camera. The next 30 days will determine if he’s a legitimate threat, or the latest dream horse to flash and fade.

3. Rick Perry
Perry was aggressive and engaged in the last debate and, for the first time, looked like he came to fight. But was the swagger too much? His slide on the track seems to have slowed and he’s steadied before hitting the Bachmann basement. Perry now looks to retread candidate Steve Forbes for a new push from an economic plan to compete with the notoriety received by Herman Cain’s 9-9-9.

4. Newt Gingrich
Newt is still the 2012 ideas man and he’s sole handedly the reason to watch the debates. Yes, he's on the rise, but Newt is also still as likely to win the nomination as Huntsman, which is a nice way of saying he won’t.

5. Ron Paul
Paul has the firmest ceiling of any horse in the race. On the one hand he’s consistent, on the other he’s completely incapable of changing anyone’s mind. It's worth noting that he outspent most of the horses in Q3 and still hasn’t seen any movement in his numbers.

FAMOUS LAST WORDS

“The New York Times reports: ‘According to an administration official, [President Obama] will kick off his new offensive in Las Vegas, ground zero of the housing bust, by promoting new rules for federally guaranteed mortgages so that more homeowners, those with little or no equity in their homes, can refinance and avert foreclosure.’  Thunk. This is how we got in trouble in the first place - the government subsidizing homeownership by those who made bad financial choices.” – Jennifer Rubin, Washington Post, 10/24/11

“The President keeps complaining that we’re not passing his stimulus/tax hike. But he had a Democrat Congress for two years and they passed nearly everything - and we’re now living under those polices.”
 - Don Stewart, spokesman for Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell
