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 [...]

When you get into pretzel logic loops, trying to exaggerate a claim, you can sometimes inadvertently end up making the opposite case as your logic twists around so much to try and make your fantasy a reality. That apparently happened in the NY Times today as they tried to make the current market correction (which [...]

Boy, I sure hope Rudy wins FL (or shows well) just so we can get more of his excellent political commercials. In this new ad (H/T Ed Morrissey) Rudy points out why not being endorsed is a good thing: The fact is McCain is trying to show DC-insider support with his Crist and Martinez endorsements, [...]

Update: Michael Totten reports on our victory in Fallujah and how US forces there are down 90% from their high in late 2006 – a clear sign of the future of Iraq thanks to the dedication and determination of our Commander-in-Chief and military forces – end update It is amazing the democrats are still, after [...]

OK Folks, you may think I am being obsessive, but it turns out while campaigning in Michigan one of Romney’s handlers let it be known Romney does wear an earpiece and is in constant contact with his handlers: On January 12, Gov. Mitt Romney was in Michigan campaigning for the January 15th Republican presidential primary. [...]

Years of having to live under the iron hand of the Clintons as they dragged their party into the minority have finally come back to haunt the Clintons. Obama’s crushing win in SC has allowed the pressure valves to burst and hordes of famous Democrats are endorsing Obama. From Sen Kerry (and others) to the [...]

Another reason big (and clearly bored) government is really bad: Brattleboro residents will vote at town meeting on whether President George Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney should be indicted and arrested for war crimes, perjury or obstruction of justice if they ever step foot in Vermont. … Opposition to the vote focused on whether [...]

Folks, McCain is not a conservative in one key area – he is not pro-life. He opposes abortion, but that is the choice of one mother over one pregnancy. However, McCain is all for corporations slaughtering thousands of young humans each year for research and spare parts (e.g., profits): Campaigning in South Carolina, Republican presidential [...]

The math and science challenged news media is all atwitter over a spy satellite that has ended its operational life and will burn up during re-entry with some of it surviving to hit the Earth: A large U.S. spy satellite has lost power and could hit the Earth in late February or March, government officials [...]

How is it John McCain is now best positioned to win the GOP nomination? If he wins FL (and recent endorsements by Gov Crist and Sen Martinez shows he has some gathering strength there) he will have supposedly turned the GOP on its head. Rush Limbaugh predicts the end of the party as we all [...]

When medical treatment becomes limited because all the incentives have been taken out of the activity, when the best and brightest move onto other fields, where government rations healthcare instead of businesses competing for patients, you get the horrors of socialized medicine. And one horror is how rationing a limited resource with limited competence can [...]

9:33 PM Eastern: OK, Hillary got romped! With 98% if the vote in Obama got 55% and and Hillary only got 27%. I would say Hillary is in deep, deep trouble.

OK, looks like McCain is going to be the GOP nominee. Fox is reporting FL Governor Crist has coming out to endorse McCain. Combine that with Sen Martinez I think that will pretty much seal up FL and the nomination for McCain. As I did in 2006, I underestimated the blow back against the GOP [...]

I would guess exit polls are telling a bad story for Clinton in SC since her campaign has released a memo this evening that says forget SC, look to FL. Regardless of today’s outcome, the race quickly shifts to Florida, where hundreds of thousands of Democrats will turn out to vote on Tuesday. Despite efforts [...]

I keep saying the GOP and its supporters cannot be Pollyannish about who can win in 2008. It is clear from just about every primary the Dems are motivated and the GOP is flat. SC is just underscoring that fact today: In 2004, about 290,000 people voted in the Democratic presidential primary. Party officials are [...]
