Your New Scoop Site

Welcome to Scoop!

To help you figure things out, there is a Scoop Admin Guide which can hopefully answer most of your questions.

Some tips:

Most of the layout is changed in "Blocks", found in the admin tools menu
Features can be turned on and off, and configured, in "Site Controls" in the admin tools menu
Stories have an "edit" link right beside the "Full Story" link on an index page, and right beside the "Post a Comment" link on the full story page. They can also be edited by clicking the story title in the "Story List" admin tool
Boxes are what allow you to write new features for Scoop; they require a knowledge of the perl programming language to work with effectively, although you can often make small changes without knowing much perl. If you would like a feature added but cannot program it yourself, ScoopHost does custom Scoop programming as one of its services.
If you aren't sure where to look for a particular feature or piece of display, try the "Search Admin Tools" link in the admin tools menu.

So, since this thing that I broke the story on two days ago has managed to make it to the national news media, I took the time to sit down over my evening coffee last night and channeled my high school debate coach (the late Bayard Gum), specifically a few things he taught me about how to reach a logically-solid conclusion.

Two advisers to Republican presidential candidate Newt Gingrich say he will formally end is campaign next Tuesday and will likely endorse Mitt Romney.
Gingrich had pinned his hopes on a surprise showing in Delaware but fell short.
He had been hinting in recent days that his campaign was nearing an end. His decision to officially shut down the effort comes as Romney has a lock on the GOP nomination.
Rest here

Parting question... Did anyone else wonder why Newt chose to keep Callista's Angry Bird mug by his side every moment of his campaign to remind ALL female voters that he never was able to keep his pecker in his pants as a married man?

If we are to believe the drive-by media meme that's been in the political news cycle for the past week or so, we're already in the general campaign for the 2012 presidential election. Never mind that His Mittenness is still between 468 and 594 committed delegates short of the number needed in order to secure a pre-convention majority. Ignore the truths that Newt Gingrich is still in this race, and that Rick Santorum is still entitled to most of his delegate accumulation. Right now, as far as the mainstream press is concerned, all we republicans should be caring about is how much money Romney can raise in order to credibly challenge Obama and who he ought to select as his running mate.

Yet again, we need to go back to Yogi Berra . . . and then go below the fold.

Ben Swann, "Reality Check" anchor at WXIX-TV in Cincinnati (FOX-19), has been following some of the shenanigans that have been going on as the Republican Party has been engaging in a coordinated strategy of process manipulation and political larceny, with the apparent goal of leveraging the coronation of Willard Mitt Romney (the Rockefeller blueblood elite heir-apparent) as their nominee to lose to Barack Hussein Obama in November. A video history pulled from the Reality Check YouTube Channel follows the break.

As January 4, 2012 marked the Official death of the Republican Party.

"Governor Romney offers us the commonsense reforms of government policy that are necessary to turn around our economy," said Senator McCain. "His record of accomplishment in government and business are a testament to his leadership abilities. His commitment to a strong defense and principled diplomacy will earn the world's respect for American leadership."

"I had the privilege of running against Governor Romney for the nomination four years ago, and I know he is a tough competitor," said Senator McCain. "I have no doubt he is the best candidate we can nominate. And I am proud to support him for President."

R.I.P., republicrats.
