Indecision 2012 - Endless Suffrage 2012 - Last Bland Standing

The Daily Show with Jon Stewart

This video is more so making fun of Rick Santorum. Jon Stewart was telling us how Rick Santorum has lost mostly all of the recent Primaries and that for some of them he did not even make the ballot. He said that she should give it up because the candidate most likely to win is Mitt Romney. Santorum began to reflect on past candidates and how they never gave up in running and how how they even became president from being so far behind in the race. I agree with Stewart because the way things are going Romney pretty much everyone in the primaries and if he does not come in first in one of them it does not hurt him because he is doing so well all around.

Why are they still running?

Late Show with David Letterman
http://www.cbs.com/late_night/late_show/video/?pid=opmUdC9YWa8_rNwBTHPUoy_Vprfh9O_m&nrd=1

This video was basically Davis Letterman bashing Newt Gingrich. He talked about how Gingrich laid off all of his staff while he is trying to run a national campaign He was really teasing him a lot because there was one clip when they were trying to Gingrich's attention but he was getting his hair bushed and combed. I think he was trying to imply that Gingrich is too busy doing irrelevant things to focus on anything else which in other words goes hand and hand with the title of the video.

Mitt Romney Primaries Cold Open

Saturday Night Live

This video opened up with Romney talking about the 2012 Superbowl. He called himself a "regular" citizen or individual like you and myself. I would definable have to disagree on that statement. He is a very rich and wealthy man. I do not believe that he knows what  struggle is or to what something so bad a not being able to get it. He grew has grown up in money so for him to say that he is a regular citizen is false and misleading. He also talked about the Missouri, Colorado, and Minnesota Primaries. Out of all three of them he did not lead in a single one. yet the tried to make himself good look by bashing Newt Gingrich's results because he was at the bottom on almost all of them. I think Romney tried to make himself feel better because he was not winning any of them so he thought he should point someone else out who is doing even worst then himself.

The Road We've Travled

This cartoon is showing President Obama in a car crash. As you can see the airbag has in flatted and the car is in pretty bad shape. He has crashed into a billboard with himself on it. It reads, " The Road We've Traveled." He makes a comments saying, " Watch my movie before you judge me." What i get from this cartoon is that Americans do not or have not been agreeing with Obama's decisions that he has made over the last four years. I think the author is trying to say that Obama has been taking the wrong road the whole time and now he has crashed. Obama is saying that we shouldn't judge him until we have seen his movie or in other words his life
