guess i got the top three but in the wrong order, i really thought Paul would come out on top. Mittens and Rick virtually tied, i can’t be faulted for having them in reverse order, when it was only 8 votes.

Marcellus Shale has got it going on up in the PA. i got a late christmas card from my friends from HS/college who have long worked for oil companies down in Houston, but who last August moved back up to PA because of the shale. He works for Chevron and she works for exxonmobil. He’s a petroleum engineer and she’s an accountant. i was surprised to hear that it’s such a draw.

Santorum,nriding the crest of religiosity that propelled Huck to a win, but didn’t play as well elsewhere.

So the Evangelicals decided their best candidate was the Catholic. This is something that would have been unheard of even back in the 1990's. It'll certainly also make South Carolina interesting.

Only in Youngstown. Nowhere else seems to have such problems...

I was also very unimpressed with the geologist saying that it was the injection well that was causing quakes. Wether it is or isn't his equating causation and correlation had my yelling at the radio.

my SIL said that Kasich has shut down the brine well that they suspect of having caused the problems. i’m sure he will be pressured and the environmentalist wackos will prey on the fears of the ignorant, which are legion.

Some moron wrote a letter in the paper yesterday comparing Rendell and his solution for the economy (casino gambling) to shale gas. Both are “risky schemes” of course, but the latter threatens our home values and our drinking water.

Better that our children flee the state and we shiver in the dark.

seriously. i am feeling hopeless about the future with such ignorance holding sway. there is a ton of research on these things and how long they have been doing this stuff to no ill effect, but the OIL COMPANIES and their ilk have been so demonized, they will never be believed.

Great Point. But then again, look at the alternatives...I think it speaks more to the fact that Perry so magnificently mismanaged the beginning of his campaign.

I certainly hope he has advisers pointing out the obvious Math.

The only one that should be out after last night is Bachmann.

46% of Iowa chose a non acceptable Conservative position....

(Which it was nice to see Newt point out, after I said it.)

While I agree with your statement about ‘Who’s following the Constitution...the Nut..’ from yesterday, the simple fact is (at least Faux news) the media was a F*ng embarassment last night, treating the Paul and Romney campaigns with Kid Gloves instead of pointing out the obvious....

Romney did WORSE than he did in 2008, Paul did better By an order of magnitude) but both have been there for 5 years.

Agree on all counts, more or less.

But Perry hates Mitt, I think, so he doesn’t want to go to SC and be Fred Thompson to Mitt’s being McCain. Perry is smart like that.

Funny thing I was thinking about the FNC coverage was that it was kind to Paul, for once....

Simple solution, truck the fluids out instead of injecting them there.
