Conservatives Will Reemerge
But it may be a tougher road to doing so. The hard left is pushing for the “Fairness Doctrine.” It is an Orwellian name for a piece of legislation that would have the opposite effect, by demanding that radio companies put on an equal amount of programming of the opposing point of view to...

I Told You So 11/06/08
To all the voters who thought that Barack Obama was going to save the country’s economy and make the world safer by “restoring our position of respect in the world,” or however that pablum catch phrase went, how do you feel about your choice now? For students of history, the market had a...

Election Post Mortem
John McCain conceded last night. Lots of red states including Indiana and Virginia going to Obama. Swing states: Florida and Ohio as well. North Carolina still too close to call as of this writing. John McCain with only a .4 % edge. So far, 349 electoral votes in the blue column. Not quite the...

Election Eve Thoughts And Predictions
Actually, I’ll share my thoughts but talk about other peoples’s predictions. On this past Saturday’s episode of the Beltway Boys, Mort Kondracke predicted that Obama would get 379 electoral votes. Fred Barnes predicted a win for McCain with 286 electoral votes, essentially maintaining the...

Hemorraging Voters
That’s a phrase that Dick Morris used it Monday night on Hannity & Colmes to describe Barack Obama. His prediction a week to the day was that if John McCain pounded away at Obama on the argument that he’s not only a tax and spend liberal, but a socialist, that his poll numbers would start to...

I Used To Like Meet The Press
Before it changed from a news show into a staging ground for a Democratic Party sponsored media event. I used to repect Tom Brokaw. I was always aware that his sympathies leaned left, but the man exuded a level of class in his profession. For that matter, I used to like Colin Powell. Unlike...

The Final Debate
Charles Krauthammer, and the rest of Brit Hume’s panel notwithstanding, I’d say the debate overall was a win for John McCain. (Something I have not said before) He needed this badly. He needed to come out swinging but without looking too angry. I think he did that. A couple of opportunities...

What are the internals really saying?
Today as I scanned the campaign news coverage, I noticed not just what the candidates were saying but where they were saying it. Barack Obama was speaking in Pennsylvania. No surprise there, but he was speaking in Philadelphia, admittedly a big broadcast market, but aren’t the major cities...

Right Back Where We Started From
With Democrats leading or are they? AP was already exposed by Brent Bozell for oversampling Democrats in their latest polling data. Rush Limbaugh also pointed out something particularly interesting: the business of Acorn and their voter fraud operation in Ohio. Former Ohio Secretary Of State: Ken...
