It is true, Save Jerseyans: Mitt Romney went through a 90-minute debate with President Obama and had no single “breakout” moment in the entire exchange. There was no “there you go again” moment.

I apologize in advance as this is a bit of a rant, Save Jerseyans, but what does Mitt Romney think he is doing?! Campaigns, or successful ones anyway, are all about contrast. You need to tell voters why you are great, the other guy is not great, and how you being there will be better […]

There are two things in the healthcare debate that everyone knows to be true, Save Jerseyans. First, it is clear that health insurance in the United States is expensive, maybe even prohibitively so. Because insurers cannot compete across state lines the market can never be truly free and prices remain artificially high. Second, it is […]
