Google’s Suggested Searches for the GOP Field: Not Too Flattering

Type something into Google, and a couple of additional searches are suggested.

Do that for the field of GOP presidential candidates, and you get a number of less than flattering suggestions.

Here’s former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, who’s on his third marriage.

Gingrich’s chief rival, Mitt Romney, made millions as the head of Bain Capital.

Rick Santorum is often a target on the trail for comments he has made about gay people.

Ron Paul has come under fire for newsletters he published that contained material people deemed racist.

The sunset over the Potomac. 
Here at National Journal we talk about sunsets about as much as we discuss politics. Here’s the view from my office window (yes, yes, I do have the best view). 
Everyone is gathered around my desk. The politics managing editor is writing a sonnet. Our deputy editor is emailing her photo to “everyone that I know.”
