to watch this again. I was a student in Moscow at the time, and it was overwhelming.  No one thought it was possible.  And it wasn't, it just happened. ...

I have been trying, as best I can, to sound the alarm about the damage being done by the scorched earth tactics of the Romney campaign and its supporters in the Republican political and media establishments. The effort long ago left the political realm and has devolved into a collective...

The latest polls in Florida point to a significant Romney victory on Tuesday, possibly double digits. If Romney does win by a double digit margin in Florida, the pressure will be for those who do not support Romney to stop criticizing Romney in the name of...

With the Republican primary taking up all the oxygen, other issues of importance have been flying under the radar. One such issue is our peace initiative in Afghanistan. The Obama administration has decided to engage Mullah Abdul Salam Zaeef as a conduit to the Taliban in...

It's not looking good in Florida. The polls show Romney surging as a result of the Romney plan exposed by The NY Times to overwhelm Newt via Romney's close ties to Drudge and a collective effort of the Republican establishment to go after Newt in what The...

I have featured the vile (I'm being restrained here) anti-Israel Boycott Divest Sanction movement before, including their attempts to disrupt businesses owned by Israelis or doing business with Israel.  The BDS movement is an iteration of the Islamist-Leftist Anti-Israel Coalition. IsraellyCool has come up with a...

I have told you that Bain would be our undoing in a general election. But whenever someone questions Bain, they are accused of being anti-capitalist. Wishing it away will not make it go away, as an article in The Boston Globe about Domino's Pizza shows, Domino's...

Two days ago Mike Huckabee denied calling Mitt Romney dishonest because of the negative attacks run by Romney, and asked Newt to take down an ad featuring Huckabee calling Romney dishonest because Huckabee denied what was on the video even though it was on the...

Thanks to reader Doug, who writes: Spotted today near Point Of Rocks, (Peoples Democratic Republic of) Maryland. I think we know where this person stands. I especially like the greeting to the ACLU. Personally, this is my favorite, a reminder of those who stood with him and those...

If you asked me even a couple of weeks ago whether the Republican Party could heal from the wounds of this election cycle in time to unite against Obama, I would have said "Yes." I'm not so sure anymore.  After the South Carolina primary the Republican establishment, and...

No, not the video I posted of Nancy Reagan. It was, according to Israel Matzav, a video of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu wishing China a Happy New Year, receiving 40 million views not including people who viewed it on Chinese television: Related:  Bibi sends Christmas Greetings Netanyahu at the U.N....

In keeping with the video of the day, the polling isn't exactly clear on what is happening here. On the one hand, numerous polls show Romney moving to a mid-to-high single digit lead in Florida, but Gallup and most other national polls show no upward movement for Romney...

The Romney campaign has been sending representatives to Newt rallies in the hope of distracting media attention away from Newt. I think it's a silly ploy which reflects a campaign that can only gain ground by attacking and disrupting others. But why is rising star Jason Chaffetz participating...

What is going on in the Republican Party? Mike Huckabee claims that Newt is using a clip from Huckabee in 2008 out of context because Huckabee was not referring to Mitt Romney, but in fact Huckabee obviously was referring to Romney. Here's the video of Huckabee voicing...
