Politico: Megadeth frontman backs Rick Santorum →
Amazing. kopoint: Dave Mustaine, leader of the heavy metal band Megadeth, is ready to rock out for Rick Santorum. “Earlier in the election, I was completely oblivious as to who Rick Santorum was, but when the dude went home to be with his daughter when she was sick, that was very commendable,” Mustaine recently told MusicRadar.com.  “…You know, I think Santorum has some presidential qualities,...

Slate: How Do You Rig a Straw Poll? →
kopoint: Answer: buy all of the seats in the house. Great election character analysis from @Slate: Straw polls, by definition, are nonbinding, so they have fewer rules than do real elections.

KoPoint: Romney Rolls Through Nevada to Easy Win →
I don’t want to mention “inevitable”, but… kopoint: Though counting is still wrapping up in Clark County Nevada this morning, it is clear that Mitt Romney will be leaving Nevada with a big, fat “W”.

K’Naan Considering Suit Against Romney Campaign... →
kopoint: Mitt Romney probably isn’t a hip-hop fan. If he were, the Presidential hopeful would have known that K’Naan wouldn’t be too keen on the idea that his song “Waving Flag” be adopted as the victory anthem for the potential GOP candidate. Now, the rapper may take legal action. “Romney campaign debuts new victory song. ‘Wavin Flag’ by K’NAAN,” tweeted Jon Ward, a Senior Political Reporter...
