Oil prices have been very high and a source of daily frustration. Having just done a bit of driving last weekened I can personally attest to the feeling you get when you see gas dip below $3.00 a gallon. This election season may see the dems die a death of a thousand cuts as the […]

There is a lot of talk about impeaching Bush next year if Democrats take over Congress, and nearly all of it is being ignored by the major media outlets. So which is it – is there a massive movement out there to impeach Bush for taking on terrorism? Or is the Democrat and liberal media […]

Man, that London Airline Plot really got people nervous as we see in another flight diversion due to a bomb scare. I flew that day so I guess was inocculated to some degree, but we hear of scares now once or twice a week since the plot to down 9 airlines was exposed. The Ned […]

As I posted before I think Leiberman is staying well ahead of Lamont (see here and here). The latest poll out is from WSJ-Zogby (which I detest as a poll) shows Leiberman ahead by ten points at 49.4-39.4% (2.1% for Schlessinger). This is consistent with the other polls out so far and show a very […]

The poor, pathetic young man at the end of Sen Allen’s Maccac jibe is still crying days later – milking his 15 minutes of fame for all its worth. And explaining a lot about how democrats and liberals plan to stand up to Al Qaeda, Iran and Hezbollah. Clearly the left’s response to threats is […]

If Santorum is making a come back in the polls then I suspect the tide is turning from Dems to Reps fairly strongly. If a rising tide lifts all boats, then Santorum’s nearly sunk campaign would be the last to break above the tide. So I am really pleasantly surprised to see Santorum now within […]

I am still very bullish on the MD Senate race, because I am pretty sure MD is tired of refllexively voting Democrat and wants to see some change just like everyone else. This

In a previous post I noted that the recent ARG poll (and the similar Rassmussen poll) showing a tight race between Lieberman and Lamont was actually not that close. I had intended to demonstrate the challenge for Lamont with some basic mathematics, but never found the time. Well, now I have the time – and […]

Updates Below – added Rasmussen poll A new ARG poll has some interesting numbers when compared to the Qinnipiac poll which came out last week. First off, the ARG poll theoretically shows a tight race: Among likely voters in November, 44% say they would vote for Lieberman, 42% say they would vote for Lamont, 3% […]
