2012-05-14T11:37:00.000-05:00

Opinion of James, Editor of 'Obama in the White House' Blog Being the Republican candidate for Romney must be like walking on pins and needles. He has to be extremely careful on what he says, but he must get in the habbit of telling the truth.

2012-05-06T10:59:00.000-05:00

Actually, this year I'm more fired up then when Barack Obama was running for the office of President of the United States in 2008. Why?

2012-05-06T02:03:00.000-05:00

Mitt Romney has a problem with his own camp at the moment. He still hasn't decided who should be his running mate. Why is that so?
