Mitt Romney and Etch-a-Sketch-gate. Barack Obama singing “Sexy and I Know It.” Rick Santorum and Newt Gingrich runnin’ their mouths like rappers. The three-ring media circus that passes for American politics these days makes it hella hard to separate the fluff from the stuff we really need to know -- like, I dunno, what the heck all the gibberish comin’ from the podium actually means when it hits OUR wallets.

Don’t worry, kids -- Newt and Kanye haven’t cornered the market on cray quotes. And sure, Mitt may be stealin’ Eminem’s beats, but it’s Rick Santorum who we're throwin’ into the sound-off stadium with none other than the Real Slim Shady! Are y’all ready for our next installment of everyone’s fav “Who Said It?” game?! Rapper or Republican!

Two days before Super Tuesday, sisters Haley, 18 and Camille Harris, 20 decided that their candidate deserved a diddy, so they cooked up this song for Santorum at 3am, shot a video with their adorable Von Trapp-sized fam (8 kids!) the next day and threw it up on the interwebz just in time for Oklahoma’s primary.

OMG, Olivia Wilde went H.A.M. on GOP presidential candiate Rick Santorum via Twitter! Why? Well it seems like the actress, known for her ability to shine on the silver screen and school her fans on social issues, is "so over" the one-time Pittsburgh senator's staunch pro-life stance. She tweeted a couple days before last night's Florida debate:

The search for "America's Next Top Republican" has moved even further south to steamy Florida and the Presidential primary heat is really on! In honor of the intense election action going down (this is the first to have three different winners at each primary so far), we decided to host one of our own -- but we flipped the script and dug into the state’s hip-hop heritage for an off-da-chain Florida rapper race!

Yesterday 95,669 showed up for Mitt Romney as he won nearly 40% of the vote in the first-in-the-nation primary.

Here's what you need to know from the New Hampshire primary:

It's been real, Iowa. If the 2012 candidates aren't all already gone from Iowa and onto New Hampshire or South Carolina, the next states to hold presidential primaries, they will be by the time you read this. Last night former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney won the Iowa Caucus, the first-in-the-nation vote for the Republican presidential nomination.

Is Kanye “stronger” in Rick Perry’s “Brokeback” jacket from his controversial “Strong” ad? Or should Ye “fear the vest” and give it up to Drake donning Rick Santorum’s sleeveless sweater wonder?

Thanks to Rick Santorum, the Iowa caucus just got #awwwwkkkwwward. While stumping in Sioux City yesterday, the presidential hopeful spit out a racist remark that some Iowa voters are finding very hard to swallow. But was his comment intentional? You decide...
