RCP: Reports on its average of the Florida Polls, as of now the candidates stand at the following, Romney 41.0%, Gingrich 29.7%, Santorum 13.5% and Paul on 9.8%. The Romney lead is 11.3%. Thus folks it will be hard for Speaker Gingrich turn this around before the Tuesday vote, the last Republican debate was a win for Governor Romney, the bounce that Gingrich got from South Carolina has gone up in smoke. The Primary in Florida selects 50 delegates, in the Florida vote winner takes all, thus Romney should sweep the board. If Romney wins big and if the polls are not wrong, then this race is over folks, yes Gingrich, Santorum will stay in the race, in the case of Gingrich its to wound Romney before the General Election, while for Santorum it could be a bid for the VP spot. In the case Congressman Paul its to get his ideas on the Republican Manifesto for November; also to speak at prime time at the Republican Convention. Thus after a BIG win in Florida the Romney Campaign has to turn its attention to President Obama, the Democrats will start to define Romney before the Republican Race is over, they are following the 1996 playbook of Bill Clinton, who defined Senator Dole before he had chance to define himself or Bill Clinton. The Republican Elders should really placing pressure on the other Republican Candidates to get out of the race, the longer this goes the more chance that POTUS will win re-election.

When IS a STATE no longer SOVEREIGN ?
Sunday Telegraph: Reports that EU countries within the Eurozone will sign an agreement tomorrow that will allow bankrupt eurozone countries to have their budgets run by the EU. Thus Portugal, Italy, Ireland, Greece and Spain can expect a German Gauleiter part of the 4th German economic Reich to turn up with the power of VETO over taxes and spending. What was the point of WW2 folks.

The Death of Sherlock Holmes ?
The Sunday Mail: Reports on the much discuss death of Mr Sherlock Holmes. This blog has followed the Blog of Dr Watson and Holmes Web Site and was sad to hear of the death of Mr Holmes and the allegations that all his deductions were mere set ups. There are wild rumours that death itself was hoax, thus to use the methods of Mr Holmes lets have a look at the case, as from press reports and internet gossip it seems Mr Holmes jumped off high building. If this was a hoax, one would have to ask why would a man jump off a building, 1, The Reports are true, all his successful cases were set ups, 2, The Man that fell from the building was not Mr Holmes, lets recall the events are being told by a distraught Dr Watson, from reports it seems that Dr Watson before he could check the body was thrown to the road by a cyclist. One has to ask WHY, was it accidental, considering the Mr Holmes and Dr Watson and their cases, nothing is an accident, thus a set to remove the good Doctor from the body or to cause distress and some lack of clarity for the good Doctor. Thus if not Mr Holmes WHO fell off the building, it has been reported that a Professor Moriarty is missing, that could mean that the body might be that of the Professor with a good mask of Mr Holmes. Also as Doctor Watson was dazed he could not attend his friend, thus a hoax. But folks, if that body was not Mr Holmes, would it not come to light, there are reports or rumours that Mr Holmes had a brother in the Security Services, also it has been discussed that Mr Holmes had friends in the medical area who might have helped him with a spare body, lets recall that famous case from WW2 folks, the Man That Never Was, a body set up to fool Nazi Germany and help with an Allied invasion. Thus folks we await further news, lets be honest the Met need all the help it can get, Mr Holmes whereabouts will cause much debate in till we hear something, lets hope sometime soon, the game is afoot or words to that effect have become a call on the Internet.

Greece and its DEBT
The New York Times: Reports that Greece is close to a deal with the bond debt holders. Lets see folks if this happens, the UK Guardian has a similar story a few days ago, those talks stalled, lets see the details, the article notes that the bond holders will take a 70% loss, lets see if the hedge funds invoke their insurance clause, this would mean that Greece has defaulted and cause problems for Greece and the Troika. This story has some road to go folks.
IMF and Greece
Telegraph: Reports that the IMF has stated that Greece will have to transfer Budget control over to the EU if it wants support from the EU/IMF/ECB. Folks sometime soon Athens will have to make a choice, is it a Sovereign State or is it a colony of Germany and the EU, for the good of Greece it has to default, then return to its native currency, the Greek Government has passed laws for Austerity, but the people and Greek system is not moving, assets in the billions have not been sold, the Greeks are still fiddling their taxes or sending money out of Country, one would not be surprise wake one morning with the news that the Greek Banking system has gone down the toilet. Greece either cuts bait as they or it should ask to be taken over by Germany as a Colony.
Greece and its Budget
BBC News: Reports that Greece has rejected a German idea for the EU to have direct control of the Budget of Greece, with a EU budget commissioner to control Greek taxes and spending. This could be the final straw for the Greeks folks, older Greeks recall the German occupation of Greece during the WW2, the idea that Germany wants in essence to make Greece an economic Colony of Germany will go down like a lead balloon. There are reports that the Greek Government and its bond holders are close to a deal, lets see the small print folks, this has been running for weeks, reports of success then failure. The Germans have made it clear that at the end of the day they can see a Greek economic meltdown, this might be a Germany way to cut its spending to Greece, have them walk away from the table.
