Nope, Joe, not buying it.

What did Edge write:

"Unlike you, Gogo, I don't find racism funny, no matter the source. As far as I'm concerned you AND Joe Biden can take your ugly racist stereotypes and shove it."

He disavowed all racist comments. Now it's up to you: you can be a man and admit you shouldn't have pasted some weird, racist email chain that you got from who-knows-where, or accept that some people think you're racist.

I tend to agree with Edge here: racism has no place in our discourse, no matter the source.

Joe, don't you say, with regularity, that "just because they did it" isn't a defense?

Why not just apologize for the racism and move on?

"Hey, Edge, that post was an e-mail that was sent to me and I posted it...."

Who's sending you racist emails, Joe? And why haven't you blocked them?

Obama's Super PAC flip-flop? Yup, it's a flip-flop. But let's explore how it's going to play out. Voters who identify as republican hate Obama anyway, so it doesn't hurt him with that group. Independents and Democrats will hear the following argument:

A pair of boxers agree to a fight. Mitt and Obama train, practice, etc. A month before the big fight, the ref announces, "Hey, feel free to bring a knife!" Mitt laughs and pulls the knife from his back pocket. It was there all along, he was planning on bringing it anyway. So Obama has a choice: knife or no knife. Well, he'd rather have a fair fight, but if he knows Mitt's bringing a knife, the logical thing to do is to bring a knife.

And, frankly, for the MITT ROMNEY supporters to call Obama out on flip-flopping? What a joke. Call me when your candidate has a consistent opinion on ANYTHING. May you be forever proud, yet ignorant of your rank, obvious double standard as you cast a vote for him in November. Considering these are the same geniuses convinced of the electoral prowess of Sharron Angle, I'm not sure logic's capable of sinking in...

"Yup, the Mad Hatter is REALLY in touch with the common man...unless that "common man" is holding the door for the Mad Hatter as he entered a luxurious and swank New York eatery for his $35K a plate fundraiser!"

Considering that much of Romney's cash is coming from large donors, not small donors, I'm not sure what your point is, Joe, other than you have a double standard... yet again. Romney's reliance on big donors just further proves Romney isn't connected with the base of his party.

"He tried to claim it was an email he received. But what type of person would copy and paste a racist rant onto a comment on the Sun's site? Joe would."

I missed this, but it doesn't surprise me in the least.

"Is it just possible the Republican Tea Party is turning off voters because of their extreme views?"

Yup, despite the administration's softening of the policy, it sounds like Boehner will press on with a bill to eliminate the birth control coverage mandate for ALL employers.

Thanks for turning this into a wedge issue, John! Will love to see the independents turn away in droves as the GOP outs itself as the party against women's basic health care needs.

Meanwhile, the guy who just won three GOP contests for President this week, Santorum, continues to crusade to eliminate all federal funding for contraception!

It's no wonder the GOP can't motivate voters to go to the polls.

Really beginning to wonder what Mr. Coolican did to Mr. Chapline, real or imagined, that prompts such vitriol.

Did you kick his dog? Shoot his horse? Date and dump his daughter? Is that why he's ignoring the renown Nevada Cancer Institute and it's staff?

Is Brad unaware of Zappos intent to reinvigorate downtown? Has he ever been to a First Friday?

These small-minded folks who think Las Vegas is and will only ever be a place for slot machines are a relic of the 20th century. The visionaries can see the potential. Count me in with the visionaries.

When did I say the Democrats would keep the House, Joe? Lying again, I see.

While your candidate is prompting 1 in 5 republicans to lean to Obama!

And that's a poll from the wingnut paradise known as the World Net Daily! Wonder what a reputable polling company would find...

"Romney will win EASILY!"

Just like Sharron Angle, right?

Meanwhile, Mitt's at CPAC attacking Las Vegas!

Where are all the GOP stooges who whined about Obama? Why are they silent?

Even worse than turnout: Mitt's polling numbers.

It's too early to make any substantive predictions, but when even Rasmussen (!) has Romney down 10 points, those lackeys who have been putting their credibility on the line by predicting Obama's loss in November have to be chugging heartburn meds and beta blockers.

"In a potential Election 2012 matchup, the president attracts 50% of the vote and former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney 40% (see tracking history). This is the largest lead the president has enjoyed against Romney in regular polling going back more than a year. It's also the first time that the president has reached the 50% level of support against Romney."

No wonder Mitt couldn't get anyone to show up to the caucus!

Mike, Brad wasn't talking about those who file Chapter 7. Reread his diatribe:

"And, speaking of criminals. What about all the homeowners that could make their monthly mortgage payments, and walked away from their financial obligations on the sole premise that their property values had fallen? What a philosophy that is. They think, "I don't have to worry about losing in my gamble to buy an overpriced house because if I don't make the equity gains I'll just walk away from my debts." And this, is not actual criminal behavior? If you think its not, you should read the legal aspects of "civil liability v. criminal liability". Where is this accountability for these "deadbeat homeowners"?"

He's talking about those who could afford the homes but walked away because they were under water, not those who would file for Chapter 7, as I don't know a judge who would allow that past the means test. Nor did Brad mention mortgage fraud or damaging a home in that ranting, but I'll just point out that there are legal recourse for these situations, as well. If the banks are too lazy to avail themselves of these, so be it.
