While Romney made his candidacy official in New Hampshire on Thursday, political stars Sarah Palin and Rudy Giuliani Marc Jacobs Hobo caused a stir of their own with visits to the first-in-the-nation primary state. Both made sure to assail the health care law approved while Romney was governor of neighboring Massachusetts.
Rumblings about Texas Gov. Rick Perry, New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie and Rep. Michele Bachmann of Minnesota further challenged Romney's standing as the closest thing the GOP has to a front-runner to take on President Obama in November 2012.
"I'm Mitt Romney and I believe in America. And I'm running for president of the United States," Romney declared to cheers on a sunny farm in southern New Hampshire.
Unswayed by possible competition, the former Marc Jacobs Hobo governor and business executive aggressively challenged Democrat Obama while trying to pitch himself to the coalition that makes up the modern GOP: fiscal conservatives, social conservatives, evangelicals and libertarians.
Romney, who lost the GOP Marc Jacobs Hobo nomination to John McCain in 2008, hopes it's now his turn. He comes to a Republican presidential contest that lacks a true front-runner and could be unsettled with new names. Polls show party members unimpressed with the declared candidates.

Marc Jacobs Hobo not a majority of revenue
“We had high hopes that this would happen eventually, but we never imagined it would happen this quickly,” said Jeff Bezos, Amazon’s chief executive, in a statement. “We’ve been selling print books
for 15 years and Kindle books for less than four years.”
But people should not exile their bookshelves to storage quite yet, many analysts warned. Over all, e-books account for only about 14 percent of all general consumer fiction and nonfiction books sold, according to Forrester Research.
“E-book reading is a big deal and it’s going to continue to be even bigger,” said James L. McQuivey, a digital media analyst at Forrester. “But we are not to the point where e-books are a majority of unit sales and certainly not a majority of revenue.”
Amazon’s latest milestone was unsurprising to industry observers. The company said last July that sales of e-books outnumbered hardcover books and it said in January that the same was true for paperbacks. For Amazon, though, the milestone is proof that it has successfully leapt from a print business to a digital one, a transition that has challenged most companies that sell media.

Marc Jacobs Hobo playing for seven years
Huddy no more: EW has confirmed that Lisa Edelstein will not be returning to season 8 of House. The actress, whose
contract was set to expire at the end of season 7, has decided to not sign on for the season ahead. (Colleagues Robert Sean Leonard and Omar Epps, however, have.) Edelstein released the following statement about her move: “After much consideration, I am moving onward with a combination of disappointment at leaving behind a character I have loved playing for seven years and excitement of the new opportunities in acting and producing that lie ahead.”
Sad news for Edelstein fans, but even more for Huddy fans: Those hoping Dr. House (Hugh Laurie) and Edelstein’s Dr. Cuddy would finally keep their on-and-off-again relationship on might be forced to let go. Here’s hoping there’s a treatment for post-Cuddy depression.
