This week’s biggest political kerfuffle was all about gay rights. While other issues did pitch a tent here and there across the political landscape, gay rights inadvertently built a massive structure that dominated the week. So, in the vein of our recent topic-specific Winners and Losers columns, Camp Campaign proudly presents the Gay Pride Winners and Losers of the week.
WINNERS:
Joe Biden –
Joe Biden really kicked this whole thing into high gear by weighing in, and going all in, on the issue of gay marriage and civil unions. Whether it was intentional or one of his patented gaffes, Biden
Gagnants et Perdants
by Ronald A. Rowe May 9th, 2012 | Winners & Losers
President Obama officially launched his re-election campaign this week. Across the pond, as the snooty people like to refer to Europe, France has already wrapped up their presidential elections. Who were the Winners and the Losers in that contest?
WINNERS:
Francois Hollande
It's kind of obvious, but a review of the Winners wouldn't be complete without mentioning newly- elected French President Francois Hollande. I mean, he WON the election. Enough said.
Socialism
We don't usually give out awards to 'isms, but Socialism certainly deserves a shoutout now that France is officially in the control of a Socialist. Not that it is anything all

A Sheriff, a Warlord, and a Pit Bull Walk into a Bar
by Ronald A. Rowe May 2nd, 2012 | Political Opinions, Winners & Losers
It was a slow week on the political landscape. Even the things that did happen were really more like announcements of the intention to do something at some point. Sluggish action notwithstanding, the panel of experts from Camp Campaign has scoured the newswires to bring you the big Winners and Losers of the Week.
WINNERS:
The Federal Government
Washington DC is intricately tied to the federal government. What happens in Vegas may stay in Vegas, but what happens in Washington transfers to the U.S. government. So the Feds get a freebie of a win this week courtesy of the Washington Redskins,

One Nation Under Dog
by Ronald A. Rowe April 25th, 2012 | Political Humor, Political Opinions, Winners & Losers
This week we take time out to answer the age-old question that has confounded politicians for generations -- Which is worse: driving with your dog in a custom-shielded car carrier on the roof of your car 30 years ago or eating dog meat in Africa 40 years ago?
Yes, instead of focusing on the economy or the deficit or the common defense or social issues or unemployment, both the Obama and Romney campaigns spent the last week in a silly Twitter / Media war trying to argue exactly that question. *

The All Hilary Rosen Winners and Losers
by Ronald A. Rowe April 18th, 2012 | Political Opinions, Presidential Election, Winners & Losers
Wow, did Hilary Rosen manage to stir up a tempest in a tea cup this week. Her ill-conceived comment about Ann Romney, mother of five, having never worked a day in her life was the catalyst for a whole lot of movement in the political landscape this week. So who were the Winners and who were the Losers in this particular kerfuffle? Camp Campaign proudly presents the first (and almost certainly last) ever All-Hilary Rosen Winners and Losers.
Mitt Romney – Winner
