Monday Morning Politics - But a New Game on Thursday

After Nevada. The headlines after Nevada were Romney wins Nevada, Gingrich vows to stay in the race. After it was all said and done, Romney had 48 percent of the vote, Newt Gingrich had 23 percent, Ron Paul had 19 percent and Rick Santorum had 11 percent. This is a clear cut victory for Romney, but it means more that Gingrich and Santorum are runing out of money, than it does that Romney has won 3 out of 5 states as of Monday.

Many more states to go, and the safe bet is on Romney to eventually be the Republican nominee,...maybe after 2 more states or it may take 6 more. But he certainly has the momentum, the organization and the money to come out on top.

Then comes Wednesday night with Santorum winning Minnesota, Missouri and Colorado,...three out of three states. Is this a game changer? I think what will change for sure is the main target of attacks for next two weeks. Hope Rick Santorum is prepared for this.

One more thing for sure,...Santorum now has the wins and the numbers to call on Newt to get out of the race as Gingrich did to him after Newt's South Carolina. That would certainly give Santorum a bump going into the next set of states.

Oh and Ron Paul? He said the results from last night "mixed things up" in the Republican primary. Really? Ron Paul has not won a state and his highest finish is second place,..usually fourth place.

Minnesota results:

Rick Santorum 45%
Ron Paul 27%
Mitt Romney 17%
Newt Gingrich 11%

Missouri results:

Rick Santorum 55%
Mitt Romney 25%
Ron Paul 12%
Newt Gingrich was not on the

Colorado results:

Rick Santorum 40%
Mitt Romney 35%
Newt Gingrich 13%
Ron Paul 12%

Proposed U.N. Treaties Undermines U.S. Interests

Dick Morris alerts us to four U.N. Treaties that President Obama is about to sign. Morris states that Obama is about to cede fundamental U.S. interest in a permanent fashion, as Morris states once the treaties are signed a subsequent Republican President could not undo them. This real stinks! The only permanent government document should be the Constitution - and this Administration would change that too if they could.

International Criminal Court Treaty. On the surface, establishing more world courts to go after and prosecute people for genocide seems like a good idea, but when the criminal act of "aggression" is included which is defined at going to war without approval of the U.N. you start to see a very stupid idea. Remember Russia and China just veto'ed a resolution calling for the resignation of President Assad, who has ordered the murder of thousands of his Syrian countrymen.

Law of the Sea Treaty. This idiotic idea is that nations give up 50% of their off shore oil and gas drilling profits to a fund managed by members from 160 countries who will in urn decide on which country gets the money. Worldwide socialism! Oh by the way, this treaty also requires us to share oil and gas drilling technology.

Small Arms Treaty, which should be called "Universal Worldwide Gun Control" treaty. This requires every member country to "crack down" on gun owners to ensure guns are not exported. Of course criminal organizations, terrorist groups, and countries like Russia and China will be exempt from or otherwise held unaccountable. This is a thinly veiled attempt by Liberals to get gun control on the books when they know they could never get it passed through congress.

Rights of Children Treaty. Who could be against ensuring children had rights? No one, as this is meant to fight child prostitution and other crimes against children. But when you look at adding requirements or restrictions on education, religion schooling and parent discipline this treaty takes our children away from us and outs them in a collective straight from the old Soviet Union.

UNBELIEVABLE! Plain and simple,...we need to get ut of the U.N. and get the U.N. out of the United States.
