Familiar fight: Paul vs. Santorum (Politico)

GOFFSTOWN, N.H. ? Instead of engaging the front-runner in the ABC News/Yahoo! debate, Ron Paul and Rick Santorum went after each other.

The beneficiary was Mitt Romney, who escaped largely unscathed.

Continue Reading

The Paul-Santorum sniping is a familiar storyline, and Saturday night provided the latest in a series of low intensity confrontations between two candidates representing distinctly different GOP camps and political cultures.

Santorum, more than two decades Paul?s junior, is a hawkish social conservative who quickly found his way into a GOP leadership role in the Senate. Paul is in many ways his polar opposite: a dovish libertarian and career House backbencher who thumbs his nose at both his party and the traditional paths to power in Washington.

For much of the campaign, the tensions between the two ? frequently expressed through their differences on U.S. policy toward Iran ? didn?t matter: neither seemed to be going anywhere in the race.

But with both candidates now ensconced as top tier candidates according to recent polls, their clashes have taken on a greater strategic significance. Paul?s attacks on Santorum work to Romney?s advantage, sullying the former Pennsylvania senator while leaving Romney?s hands clean. And every moment that Paul and Santorum spend focused on each other is a moment when the field isn?t attacking the front-runner.

Asked after Saturday?s debate if there is any personal animosity between himself and Paul, Santorum replied, ?Oh gosh, no? and then sought to divest himself of responsibility for the bickering.

?He called me corrupt. What are you gonna?I don?t think I?m the one that started the skirmish,? Santorum said.

In the post-debate spin room, Paul?s son, Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul, attributed the conflict between his dad and Santorum to the ex-senator?s new-found place in the GOP field?s first tier.

?It?s just the fact that he?s new to the top tier, hasn?t been screened or vetted, and this is his chance,? Rand Paul said.

Even prior to the debate, Paul had gone on the air with a new ad in South Carolina that accuses Santorum of being a ?corporate lobbyist? and ?Washington politician? who was named ?one of the most corrupt members of Congress.?

At St. Anselm College, where the debate took place Saturday night, Paul defended the ad when asked about it by debate moderators.

?He?s a big-government, big-spending individual ? He became a high-powered lobbyist,? Paul contended.

?They caught you not telling the truth, Ron,? Santorum interjected.

Paul went on: ?What really counts is his record. I mean, he?s a big government, big spending individual. Because, you know, he preached to the fact he wanted a balanced budget amendment but voted to raise the debt [limit] five times. So he is a big government person.?

?And also where did he get ? make his living afterwards? I mean, he became a high-powered lobbyist on ? in Washington, D.C. And he has done quite well.?

On his stroll toward Mexico's presidency, Pena Nieto stumbles

Reporting from Mexico City?

?

First, he struggled to name a single book he'd read, except for "parts" of the Bible. Then he couldn't quote the minimum wage nor the price of the omnipresent tortilla.

The man who would be the next president of Mexico, Enrique Pena Nieto, is not off to a good start.

For months, the election of Pena Nieto had taken on an air of near-inevitability. The handsome politician with the TV star wife consistently leads polls by seemingly insurmountable margins.

But with the campaign now taking shape in earnest, Pena Nieto has stumbled badly in a series of embarrassing, well-publicized gaffes that raise questions about his mettle as a candidate.

Mexicans will vote in July to replace President Felipe Calderon, whose six-year term has been plagued by violence and drug cartel warfare that have left as many as 50,000 people dead. Many voters are looking for a change. Calderon is barred by law from seeking reelection.

Pena Nieto's Institutional Revolutionary Party, or PRI, which ruled Mexico with an iron fist for seven decades until being unseated from the presidency in 2000, has positioned itself to return to power. Maintaining that it has reformed from its corrupt ways, the PRI has won several governorships and legislative offices to rebuild a formidable party machinery and push laws favoring its election bid.

Leading that bid is Pena Nieto, until September the governor of Mexico state, the nation's most populous. With other parties divided, smarting or in disarray, Pena Nieto has seemed unbeatable, his youthful appeal meant to target a new generation of voters with little memory of the PRI's dark past.

But amid his stumbles, Pena Nieto has shown no ability to improvise and muster a quick comeback to rescue himself.

His troubles started in early December at the renowned International Book Fair in Guadalajara, where he was presenting his own book, "Mexico: The Great Hope."

Asked to name three books that had influenced him, the candidate hesitated, stammered and looked to aides for help. Struggling, he eventually said he had read "parts of" the Bible. Then he named a Mexican work of fiction from the last decade, "La Silla del Aguila" (The Eagle's Throne), but got the author wrong. He attributed it to a leading historian, Enrique Krauze, but it was written by Mexico's most famous living novelist, Carlos Fuentes.

"What happens is when I read books, the titles don't always stick," Pena Nieto said by way of explanation.

The flub went viral, and Pena Nieto quickly became the butt of many a joke among rivals, on social networks and in the media. It seemed to confirm a widely held notion of the candidate as pretty but shallow. Some called it his "Oops moment," alluding to U.S. Republican presidential candidate Rick Perry's inability to remember which three government agencies he would close.

It was Fuentes himself who perhaps delivered the most bruising criticism.

"This gentleman has the right not to read me," Fuentes told the BBC Spanish-language service. "What he does not have the right to is to be president of Mexico, based on ignorance."

Pena Nieto later tried to make amends, explaining in Twitter messages that he felt embarrassed but was so busy with politics he didn't have a lot of time to read.

His case was not helped by his teenage daughter Paulina, who re-tweeted a message that criticized "a bunch of jerks who are part of the prole [proletariat] and only criticize those they envy." Prole is a derogatory term referring to poor people. The snobbish tinge of the missive did not go over well in a country with such an enormous class divide. (She too later apologized.)

The candidate's next faux pas came during an interview with the Spanish newspaper El Pais, when he could not say how much the minimum wage was. Nor could he quote the price of a kilo of tortillas, a staple in all Mexican working- and middle-class households.

Pena Nieto compounded his misstep, stating that he couldn't be expected to know the price of tortillas because "I am not the lady of the house," a comment seen as sexist and doubly insensitive.

Although these fumbles are unlikely to substantially erode his support, they do suggest that Pena Nieto is not the picture-perfect candidate that many here have thought him to be. It suggests that the PRI, on an uphill crusade to improve its image, also has work cut out for it in sustaining his candidacy.

Navy SEAL dies after accidentally shooting himself

Navy officials have confirmed that a Navy SEAL who accidentally shot himself in the head has died.

Navy spokesman Lt. Cmdr. Frank Magallon tells the U-T San Diego (http://bit.ly/ycqw4O ) that Petty Officer 3rd Class Gene "Geno" Clayont, Jr. was taken off life support on Saturday. He is survived by his parents and three sisters.

San Diego police were called on Thursday after the accident. Police say Clayton had gone to a bar and brought a woman back to his apartment and was showing her guns when he put a pistol to his head, believing it was unloaded, and pulled the trigger.

Paramedics took Clayton to a San Diego hospital where he was placed on life support.

Republican Presidential Candidates Embrace Granting Legal Rights ...

December 22, 2011, 1:31 pm By ERIK ECKHOLM

The ?personhood amendment,? granting legal rights to human embryos, might have seemed to be a political nonstarter after voters in Mississippi, arguably the most conservative and anti-abortion state in the nation, rejected such a proposal last month. But the idea has not faded in the Republican primaries.

Mississippi voters said they thought twice about the proposal when they heard that it would not only ban virtually all abortions but also some forms of contraception like I.U.D.?s and morning-after pills, could hamper in-vitro fertilization clinics and could, doctors warned, discourage critical medical care for pregnant women. It has also caused a bitter split in the anti-abortion movement, with traditional leaders, including National Right to Life and the Roman Catholic bishops, opposed to the idea on strategic grounds, arguing that it would end in a legal debacle that only strengthens abortion rights.

These considerations have apparently not put off some of the Republican presidential aspirants, who are polishing and trumpeting their credentials as Christian conservatives in their efforts to be seen as the leading Not Romney. This month, Michele Bachmann, Newt Gingrich, Rick Perry and Rick Santorum have all signed a pledge to support ?personhood? at conception that was crafted by Personhood USA, a Colorado group that has continued to push the idea in several states.

Mrs. Bachmann, Mr. Gingrich and Mr. Santorum have also agreed to celebrate the personhood concept in a ?Presidential Pro-Life Forum? in Iowa next Tuesday, Dec. 27, that will be moderated by the conservative radio host Steve Deace and broadcast live on his syndicated program. The 90-minute ?tele-town hall? is being hosted by Personhood USA and co-sponsored by several of the country?s most conservative evangelical Christian groups including The Call, Liberty Counsel and the National Hispanic Christian Leadership Coalition. ?An invitation has been extended to the remaining G.O.P. presidential candidates,? Personhood USA said in a news release.

Column: Finally, some good news for college game (AP)

We interrupt this seamy, scandal-plagued, cash-grab-of-a-college-football season for the following public-service message:

Matt Barkley is staying in school.

The announcement Thursday that Barkley will return to USC for his senior season isn't really a tale about great sacrifice. He knows NFL-ready quarterback prospects almost always hold their value and he'll likely get his millions soon enough.

It isn't even the most uplifting story in the game this week. That would be Eric LeGrand's appearance on the cover of Sports Illustrated commemorating the best sports moment of 2011, when he led his Rutgers teammates onto the field in a wheelchair for a home game in late October, little more than a year after LeGrand was paralyzed playing against Army.

Barkley's decision isn't the newsiest development this week, either, That would be the wrist slap the NCAA gave Ohio State, whose clueless president and shameless athletic director whined that the school had punished itself enough after learning that former coach Jim Tressel lied and cheated his way through the entire 2010 season.

But Barkley's story might be the most surprising, considering how rarely loyalty takes hold across the college football landscape, including the very spot on which he was standing.

Not quite two years ago, Pete Carroll, the coach who recruited Barkley, left for Seattle and the NFL rather than stick around and face the harsh penalties the NCAA was about to levy on Southern California for a host of violations on his watch. The coach Barkley played for the past two seasons, Lane Kiffin, didn't exactly cover himself in glory, either, for the way he departed Tennessee ? abruptly ? to take Carroll's place.

Barkley and his teammates bore the brunt of the postseason bans and all that upheaval and decided to come back anyway.

"I am staying so I can finish what I started," Barkley said to cheers inside USC's Heritage Hall.

More than a few pro scouts shook their heads at that moment, though, recalling how Matt Leinart made the same call to a similar round of cheers a handful of years earlier.

"It's another year with my pals, no matter how it turns out," Leinart said a few days after his decision. "But I'll tell you what: I didn't want to look back 10 or 20 years down the road and find out I passed on the chance to be a part of something really special."

He was coming off USC's back-to-back national championships and a Heisman Trophy-winning season. He didn't duplicate either achievement in the one that followed and his draft stock tumbled when Texas quarterback Vince Young, who outplayed Leinart in a thrilling Bowl Championship Series finale, declared himself eligible for the same 2006 draft. Leinart, a lock for the top spot a year earlier, tumbled to No. 10 and wound up costing himself millions.

If there's any consolation for Barkley in that example, it's that Leinart, despite proving himself a barely adequate backup in the pros, still made millions. Plus, like Leinart, Barkley will be returning to a Trojans squad with a very realistic chance to win a national championship next season and a strong enough supporting cast ? on offense, anyway ? to get him a Heisman Trophy.

USC finished 10-2 and climbed all the way to No. 5 before shutting things down for the season. While Barkley loses his best protector on the offensive line ? left tackle Matt Kalil already declared for the NFL draft, where could go as high as No. 2 ? the quarterback will reunite with receivers Marqise Lee and Robert Woods, a tandem that just might be the nation's best.

We won't know how things turn out, of course, for a while. But it's hardly the bad business decision those NFL scouts panned it as, if only because Stanford's Andrew Luck made the same one at the end of last season and cemented his place at the top of next spring's NFL draft.

And the quartet of quarterbacks who did the same dating back to Peyton Manning in 1997 ? Leinart, Tim Tebow (2009) and Jake Locker (2010) ? all were gone by the end of the first round the following year.

But minimizing the risk that Barkley is taking shouldn't stop us from marveling at the loyalty he showed to a school and a sport that always rewards coaches and administrators handsomely, but not always the kids who make it all possible.

The lessons the sport has been teaching the past few years ? from fleeing coaches to shady conference realignment schemes to university presidents only too willing to look the other way ? is that it's every man for himself. By returning to USC for one more year, Barkley signaled he was still about something else.

Bravo.

"That's not an easy decision," said Kiffin, who won't get a better present this Christmas. "Not many people would do what Matt has done."
