    California is not going to be an early Super Tuesday state but is settling on a June date due to budget problems.

    Utah seems to like to go early, but they aren’t on the list.

  3. Bobinator Says:

    Washington state will hold caucuses in February. We aren’t on the list because our official delegate assignments will not be until the state convention later in the year, but the die will be cast early in the contest.

    Romney’s Vulnerability and Media Disconnect

    Posted by Erick Erickson

    Monday, September 26th at 12:08PM EDT

    I’ve got up a post at CNN.com right now on Mitt Romney and what the media is missing in its 2012 analysis.

    When the bulk of the Republican pundits and prognosticators support one candidate, the reporters and political analysts who rely on those Republicans tend to act as if that candidate is the one everybody supports.

    The media, in effect, have become film critic Pauline Kael, who allegedly expressed surprise when Richard Nixon won, because no one she knew had voted for him.

    This is what is going on with Mitt Romney. Just about every Republican pundit, commentator, and prognosticator that the media rely on for an insider take on the GOP — no matter how objective the inside take is expected to be — is within the Mitt Romney sphere of influence.

  14. Romney for Sec of Labor Says:

    Cain adds elected officials to Florida campaign team

    November, 1 2011 3:38 PM

    Republican presidential candidate Herman Cain added 16 elected officials to his Florida campaign team Monday including state Sen. Thad Altman, R-Melbourne, whose district includes eastern Orange and Seminole counties.

    “Florida is a critical state, and I continue to be humbled by the incredible leaders and grassroots organizations that have lined up to support my candidacy and carry forward my plan for our nation,” Cain stated in a news release.

    The new members are all statewide co-chairs of the Friends of Herman Cain campaign:

    ? Representative Larry Ahern – District 51 – Pinellas County

    ? Senator Thad Altman – District 24 – Brevard, Orange, and Seminole counties

    ? Councilman Bill Bishop – Vice President, Jacksonville City Council

    ? Representative Matt Caldwell – District 73 – Lee County

    ? Councilwoman Teresa Heitmann – Naples City Council

    ? Commissioner Tom Henning – Collier County

    ? Commissioner Gardner Hussey – City of Altamonte Springs

    ? Commissioner Daniel Leeper – Nassau County

    ? Vice Mayor Jon Miller – City of Casselberry

    ? Former Secretary of State Sandra Mortham

    ? Senator Steve Oelrich – District 14 – Alachua

    ? Representative Liz Porter – District 11 – Gilchrist, Lafayette, Suwanee

    ? Representative Jimmy Smith – District 43 – Citrus, Hernando, Levy

    ? Senator Rhonda Storms – District 10 – Brandon

    ? Representative Carlos Trujillo – District 116 – Miami-Dade County.

    They join a campaign team announced last week that includes statewide chairs Kathleen Shanahan, who was chief of staff to then-Gov. Jeb Bush; state Rep. Scott Plakon, R-Longwood; Adam Goodman as senior message strategist; and Deborah Cox-Roush as director of county chairs.

    Interesting to read some of the earlier posts when Perry was the FOTM! Since then, we’ve gone through Cain and now Newt.

    Looking at facts, listening to their plans/views as well as their ability to interact productively with others in debates/interviews/news conferences, etc. has certainly opened the eyes of many who realize while they may like so and so…….he/she is not prepared intellectually/organizationally to beat Obama.

    Reasoned and educated electorates are needed. Sure glad Perry wasn’t “crowned” back in September or Cain the next month!

  17. Joshua - Ron Paul 2012! Says:

    Washington State is a Caucus again this year and I will be voting my conscience and not what the media tells me to. I would encourage everyone to spend some time looking at the voting records of candidates. Are they consistent and are they the same way that you would vote? Ron Paul every time.
