| WASHINGTON – A Maine representative to the Republican National Committee is accusing national party leaders of running a smear campaign to oust him from the committee, even as he wages his own longshot bid to become the national party´s next chairman. Five months ago, Mark Willis lost his delegate seat at the Republican National Convention in Tampa because of his outspoken support for presidential candidate Ron Paul. Now, other Republican National Committee members question whether Willis is eligible to represent Maine on the committee

Republican Establishment aristocrat, Reince Priebus, once again uses Establishment Rules to squash a Ron Paul supporter.

I´m not a Ron Paul fan by any means, but I don´t trust the GOP establishment as far as I can throw them.

Ron Paul played a small role getting obama in office.

The GOP establishment played a larger role #2.
I liked it when the convention actually chose someone instead of being a set piece. Clint Eastwood was the only interesting part.

Of course he´s being smeared. Any Ron Paul supporter goes against the pubbie establishment and their ruling power.

Ron Paul is nothing but a crackpot, and his crackpot supporters played a huge part in getting obama elected.

We need to break the establishment club. They have turned the party power into an elitest crony club. We don´t need or want our party run this way. We have no voice under such a system. We all need to find a way to infiltrate and take it over so the party once again represents the people of the party.

There´s been quite a few stories lately that suggest Obama´s 2nd term main priority is getting rid of the republican party.There simply isn´t enough numbers in this country to mount a 3rd party effort and the left would be more than happy to see two right wing candidates on the same ticket.It´s actually one of the tricks they use to win elections by running stooge 3rd party candidates. Usually they´re very anti-abortion which steals votes all by itself.
Republican establishment members are well backed by lobbyists,so you´d better have deep pockets to run against them.Plus incumbents win 90% of the time anyway.
In other words our political establishment is a huge paradigm that rejects change except around the edges.

Ron Paul has a few good ideas. Being Ron Paul isn´t one of them.

I´m so tired of the Ron Paul people´s whining.
No, I don´t like some of the Republican establishment, but I have not and might not ever forgive Ron Paul for his part in getting 0bama elected. He took his place on stage, took R support, and then he took his toys and sat out the election. He could have made a difference. I heard them brag about how they showed the R´s that "see they needed Ron Paul".

West Virginia Democratic Sen. Jay Rockefeller, one of the towering architects of Obamacare, on Tuesday openly criticized program managers for not moving quickly enough to build the system, warning that if it gets off to a bumpy start it will just get worse. Decrying the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act as way too complex, he warned the acting Medicare director that Obamacare is "so complicated and if it isn´t done right the first time, it will just simply get worse."

The withdrawal came less than a week after medical school Dean Paul B. Rothman chastised Carson for his comments and met with graduating students concerned that the famed physician was an inappropriate commencement speaker.

The sequester may have many across the country singing the blues, but for President Obama, it was all about Memphis Soul. Even with the threat of furloughs and government cuts sparked by the sequester, Obama took the time to enjoy a star-studded concert at the White House tonight. The White House celebration of Memphis Soul music in the East Room--which included special guest appearances by Queen Latifah and Justin Timberlake--is likely to rile Obama´s Republican foes. Some conservatives have called on Obama to give up golf, especially since popular public tours of the White House have been canceled because of

In the message he issued along with his budget proposal on Wednesday morning, President Barack Obama said he wants to see 4-year-old children in the United States enrolled in public schools. Obama said America needs to start enrolling 4-year-olds to make sure the children are “better prepared for the demands of the global economy” and to help parents save on "child-care costs." After saying the United States needs to “equip our citizens with the skills and training” to fill jobs in manufacturing, energy and infrastructure, Obama said, “And that has to start at the earliest possible age.”

Although the first votes on gun -control legislation have yet to be cast, by some measures the National Rifle Association has already won. Obama’s ambitious plans to ban assault weapons and limit magazine capacities are off the table, while the NRA suggested it could support the most likely outcome -- expanded background checks -- as recently as 1999. The NRA claims that the president’s efforts have triggered a fundraising surge and boosted its membership from 4 million to nearly 5 million.

Is Anthony Weiner completely delusional? Or is he out of his flipping, sex-crazed gourd? Whatever big-busted fantasies crawl around the ex-congressman’s delirious noggin, la Weiner made his next goal as clear as the skin of the wholesome college students he craved: He relishes being Mayor Weiner. Please, shut up this clown. These days, the genitally obsessed Weiner has nothing much to do, except sit in his lavish Manhattan apartment and — the inhumanity! — change the poopy diapers of his 16-month-old son, Jordan. Worse, Weiner is living under a kind of house arrest, sentenced to take extreme grief

During the Q and A session after Sen. Rand Paul’s speech at Howard University, one student explained that he was not a fan of his view of government. “You say you want to provide a government that leaves us alone, quite frankly, I don’t want that,” the student said. “I want a government that is going to help me.” The student insisted that he wanted assistance for his college education and asked if Rand Paul supported a culture change within the nation. “Do you Sen. Rand Paul have a formulated solution to come up with new American values

Seven hundred Military Special Operations professionals. And one insistent and very angry Mom. This is becoming a deadly combination for the political game players in the Obama Administration. Sean Smith, the young State Department computer wizard who was brutally murdered that September night in Benghazi, was Pat Smith’s only child. Let’s say that again. Sean Smith was Mrs. Smith’s only child. To listen to her recent radio interview with another Sean… Sean Hannity… is to have the heart break.

Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Kathleen Sebelius conceded Monday that implementing the Affordable Care Act has been more complicated and frustrating than the Obama administration expected, largely due to Republicans who have opposed the law´s state-based exchanges and Medicaid expansion. "The politics has been relentless and that continues," Sebelius said. "There was some hope that once the Supreme Court ruled in July, and then once an election occurred there would be a sense that, ´This is the law of the land, let´s get on board, let´s make this work.´"
