Meet The Paul Ryan Girl

Fiscal Discipline

VP Debate Recap

William Jacobson again rounds up the best tweets of the debate.

From Paul Ryan's Speech

"College graduates should not have to live out their twenties in their childhood bedrooms, staring at fading Obama posters, and wondering when they can move out and get going with life."

Plus:  "Sometimes even Presidents need reminding: our rights come from nature and god and not from government . . . . We will not replace our founding principles, we will reapply our founding principles."

Democratic Presidential Adviser Erskine Bowles Addresses the Ryan Budget

"It is a sensible, straightforward, serious budget and it cut the budget deficit by $4 trillion."

Of course, in 2010, even Obama acknowledged that Ryan's Plan "is an entirely legitimate proposal."

But I suppose that was before Ryan threw granny off a cliff.

Romney-Ryan 2012

In taking the weekend off from blogging (for the first time in a long while), I failed to cover Romney's selection of his running mate: Paul Ryan.  The Wisconsin Congressman and Chair of the House Budget Committee is a bold, but brilliant choice.  By picking Paul Ryan, Mitt Romney has shown that he is committed to tackling the biggest problem our nation faces, entitlement reform.  The choice the American people now face in November has never been clearer: we will either embrace fiscal reform or we will march off the fiscal cliff.  And there is perhaps no one better to explain that choice than Paul Ryan.
