Death Toll In Iraq Falls Or Stays Level

Update: See all the numbers and graphs over at Gateway Pundit. Bottom line: Surge is still succeeding – end update I noted in this earlier post that the threatened resurgence by al-Qaede during the months of December and January never has never really materialized. Yes, they did increase the US death toll in January back […]

Democrats Help Hyper-Right Attack McCain: Claim He Is A Closet Democrat

Bumped To The Top: The Hyper-Right is Imploding Updates Below – end update Hyper-left democrats (a.k.a. liberals) are starting to get worried about the McCain phenomena.

McMentum

The far right, as evidences by the ever shrill and panicky MarK Levin, is learning a very tough lesson. As I pointed out in an earlier post the hyper-partisans left and right have been competing to see who can insult and repulse the moderate middle the most (for daring not be ideologues and instead supporting […]

GOP Reconciliation Ain’t Happening

I was listening to Laura Ingrahm on the way in and she is trying to adjust to the McCain nomination, but it just ain’t happening. She wanted to know how to build a bridge between the hyper-conservatives and the moderate conservatives. It is an easy question to answer – try some respect. She was trying, […]

What Happens When Political Actions Don’t Impress, They Embarrass?

It has been a stunning couple of years to watch the GOP and Democrat parties disintegrate into rabid hyper-partisanship and cut throat (and can we just admit it – juvenile) tactics. I have seen the meltdown of our supposed leaders, transforming them from people who impress to people who are an embarrassment. The mood of […]

GOP Purity Wars Must End – Or Else Welcome Dem President

The purity warriors (sometimes I like to jab them as the Mary Poppins conservatives who are practically perfect in every way) have a decision to make today and into the future. Do they want a seat at the table of power or are they going to leave the conservative coalition? They have been ranting and […]

Al Qaeda is in serious trouble. These are not ad hoc operations, but are deliberate, systematic, well-planned and working. I’ve been watching this unfold for months […]

FL Primary Results – Rudy Out, Huck Out, Romney On The Way Out?

McCain Wins!: OK Amnesty Hypochondriacs, your either with the GOP nominee or against him. Mark Levin was just livid tonight and I expect him to bolt the party being led by John McCain. McCain won in a GOP-only primary. Levin is going to be in good company with Laura, Michelle and Hannity who must face […]

Warning On FL Polls and Exit Polls

Early exit polls for FL are out and magically mirror the pre-election day polls. OK, that is what we might expect. But the fact is all the pre-election polls have been off one way or another and it has been turn out and problems with turn out models which have confounded the pollsters. I am […]

Nice Guys Finish Last?

I think there may be some magic in the air for FL tomorrow. One thing we saw in the SOTU this evening was a class act from Bush, with a reminder of how important our economy is (tax cuts), life is (embryonic stem cell research) and being strong against terrorists and Surrendercrats (Iraq). Bush doesn’t […]
