The Politico and the Democrats, but, I repeat myself, thought that the contraception mandate issue was the perfect issue for Democrats, as they could paint Republicans, and Santorum, as “anti-women” (despite marrying one and having three daughters).

And The Politico is not particularly happy about it, but has a rather difficult time defending Obama Gasoline prices are on the rise, and Republicans are licking their chops. It’s a familiar refrain: Once again, GOP lawmakers and conservative commentators are on the attack, blaming President Barack Obama for higher prices at the pump. And […]
