Romney defeats Santorum by 8 votes in Iowa - CNN.com - 2 views

For the Republican nomination it is going to come down to if the true conservatives come out and support or not. The nomination will be for Romney if they do not come out and Santorum will win if they do. Gingrich, Bachman, and Huntsman have no chance in my opinion. Paul on the other hand will be an interesting story. He is appealing to the younger voters, so his success will be based upon if the <25 population comes out to vote.

Mitt Romney's tax returns: He earned $42.5 million, is paying $6.2 million in taxes - 2 views
-
I haven't filed my taxes for 2011, so I can't be sure but I think don't think I made that much this year. On the "bright side" I won't have to pay $6 million unless my tax guy screws up pretty badly. As the article points out, this makes Romney part of the top 1%... but paying a lower percentage of taxes than most Americans.

Prop. 8: Gay-marriage ban unconstitutional, court rules - latimes.com - 7 views

This is great news. This might trigger a domino effect on the rest of the nation on gay marriage rights. I feel after the 2008 vote on Prop 8 the whole country, not just California, closed the doors on their rights.

I feel like the government shouldnt be able to control who you marry regaurdless of their gender. If you love them you love them. Gay marriage should be allowed in every state. -
I'm all for people getting married to who they wish. It's their choice, they should be able to do what they want to be committed and forever bonded.
