Here’s a thought to ponder: In a presidential race that is shaping up to be a “base” election, is Mitt Romney the wrong messenger? This may be the real problem.
The problem seems to be two-fold. First of all, Romney is not a “base” guy to begin with and he’s trying to turn out the base. He’ll get far with the anti-Obama crowd but can he get over the top? He’s not a flame-thrower and a crowd pleaser and that’s exactly what is needed to grow the base of conservative voters that Romney needs.
This week on Jerusalem Dateline: Riots rock the Middle East. Is it all because of an anti-Muslim film, or is there a deeper motive at work?
Plus, Benjamin Netanyahu appeals to the U.S. to take a tougher line on Iran. What does that say about U.S.-Israel relations?
And, refugees from the war in Syria find hope and help from the people of the Book.
Throughout this presidential campaign, what we’ve learned about Mitt Romney is he is a numbers guy. That mindset may play well in the business world but it’s not translating very well to the campaign trail. He’s too “metric stiff.”
The new, “47 percent” video may excite the conservative base of the party (and believe me, it will) but unfortunately it sheds light on a much bigger problem for Romney. He’s all about statistics. He’s fascinated with polling data, numbers, and spreadsheets. My goodness, it’s how he made a wonderful living at Bain Capital.
Pastor Youcef Nadarkhani, recently released from an Iranian prison, has written a letter of thanks to all those who brought attention to his plight and prayed for his release.

On this week's edition of the Stakelbeck on Terror show, I sit down with Danny Danon, Deputy Speaker of the Israeli Knesset, to discuss his new book, Israel: The Will to Prevail.
Watch as Deputy Speaker Danon addresses the threat of Iran, the Muslim Brotherhood, the status of Jewish communities in Judea, Samaria, and Jerusalem, and President Obama's hostile policies towards the Jewish State.
Many of us feel that exhilarating nip in the air that signals the approach of autumn. I thank God for blessing us with the change of seasons. I pray He will remind us to take the time to appreciate the spendor that is all around us, a free gift for our enjoyment.
The sun and surf of summer is fantastic, I love it, but it's always nice to transition into the cooler temperatures and the incredible beauty that make fall unique...not to mention all the yummy food, like pumpkin bread and activities, like football.
What do you say to yourself about yourself? Do you feel about yourself as our God of grace does? As a psychologist everyday I get inside the heads of people who are struggling. Here’s what I hear: I blew it. I’m a failure…. I’ve been abused. I’m a victim… I gave in again. I’m an addict…. I’m alone. I’m just a loner… I can’t lose weight. I’m unattractive.
I am always trying to teach my children about forgiveness. It is one of the greatest gifts you can give. God tells us to forgive and it is freeing for both you and the offender. Yet, I have not exactly been a good role model in this regard. I have struggled with forgiving my own birth father for years. I have always had love for him because he is a part of me and my children. Still, I could not bring myself to forgive him for leaving me as a baby.
This new ad asks a question that lot of Americans are asking themselves about President Obama's hand of friendship to a group that seeks Muslim world domination.
