From Linda, spotted in Franklin, TN: ...
Democrats in Wisconsin are trying to make Charlie Sykes, the great conservative talk show host and blogger, a campaign issue in the recall. Sounds like a plan, a stupid plan: From Charlie's blog: Pure political genius if a state political party running against a talk show host and...
A lot of polls today showing Newt weakening substantially, and he's finally doing a major media buy in Iowa starting with this ad, and launching a 44-stop bus tour. I don't think it's too late, but it is late. Would Michele Bachmann be in second place...
He says he will make a decision over the holidays, and Democrats in Washington desperately want him to run even though he is in a weakened position because of the Cornhusker Kickback. The NRSC has released a web ad which highlights Nelson's problem (h/t HotAir). I...
From @TobyHarnden: ...
Newt Gingrich wants to restore a balance between the branches of government, and address what a lot of people see as an imperial judiciary. His white paper lays out a variety of mechanisms, most of which are not controversial. One in particular, that Congress should subpoena judges...
Mitt Romney's days at and after Bain have been largely unexamined in the primaries. None of the other candidates has the resources and organization to do the research, but others are and it will hurt Romney's come the general election if he is the nominee...
How ironic would it be if a month-long onslaught by conservative media and attack ads run against Newt non-stop by a Mitt Romney supporting SuperPAC resulted in Ron Paul winning the Iowa caucuses? Paul also is running attack ads, but without the rest of the...
That was the subject line in the e-mail from Aaron Worthing, who blogs at Allergic to Bull , who sent this photo: It was perfect, almost perfect. A bumper sticker picture with a hilarious contradiction. First they say "universal healthcare is pro-life" and then they say the...

Mitt Romney has been doubling and tripling down on the strategy of crazy attempting to portray Newt as mentally unfit for office. Part of that strategy is to characterize Newt as "zany." Romney stood by the accusation this morning on Fox News Sunday. But that's not how...
Interesting stuff: Good neutral article about the 10 factors which could sink Newt in Iowa. One of them was "Fox News Talkers." I guess I wasn't the only one who noticed. Coulter was on Hannity, O'Reilly, and apparently Red Eye singing the same Newt's crazy tune. ...
I don't care for the phrase “public intellectual,” particularly when paired with “political thinker.” It tends to reference the most polemic or controversial people, skeptics of common sense. For instance, there are lots of great thinkers who have never ascended to notoriety the way Noam Chomsky...
The good news? The Islamists did not do significantly better than in the first round of elections. The bad news? The Islamists did not do significantly worse than in the first round of elections. They're still running at about 70%: The Muslim Brotherhood party secured 39 percent of...
Mitt Romney was on Fox News Sunday this morning, and his interview went well overall. But Romney is doubling down on his claims that Newt is an unreliable conservative because of Newt's comments last spring about the Ryan Plan and "right wing social engineering," and his couch...
I guess I'm upsetting some people with my vigorous posts regarding Newt. Robert Stacy McCain says I've "hopped aboard the Gingrich bandwagon and [am] savagely lashing Newt’s critics." Actually, the bandwagon jumped on me, because my endorsement predated Newt's surge, if only by a few days. John Sexton...
This is the video of Michele Bachmann accusing Tea Party members, not just in South Carolina but "all across the country," of taking money from Gingrich for endorsements, which I referenced in my post Friday: The Bachmann SC Tea Party Coalition Leaders has issued a statement...
