This was going to be my losing song. But I forgot to play it Tuesday night. Figures. You don't want to know what my victory song was. (Actually, I think you know, but I can't embed it because at least one reader emailed in the past that it...

I will have more in coming days on the flawed demographic narrative. You know, the one which liberals love to push particularly since Tuesday that because the percentage of non-white people is growing, Republicans are doomed.  Because skin color is destiny to them. Keep at that math.  Please. Democrats now...

I'm still gathering my thoughts on the "meaning" of Tuesday.  For now, I'm not seeing half as much meaning as most others. Until my further posts on the subject, this segment below by Dennis Miller (via Hot Air) is worth a listen. Miller makes the point that...

Yesterday morning—the morning after—I posted this: Barack Obama is the first two-term president in at least 100 years to get fewer votes in his reelection than he did the first time out. (FDR did less well in both his third and fourth terms.) I’d written those words...

From a reader abroad: I live in Italy with my wife. My parents are visiting for a month, and we were in Pisa yesterday. My dad, a Korea vet, loved the stickers on this car. There may be hope yet for Europe. Love your site, though I...

Last night after news of Obama's reelection was announced, I headed into downtown Chicago and came across groups of supporters celebrating. The video below was taken of a group that gathered outside the ABC studios. They spoke about how thrilled they were to see that...

Barack Obama is the first two-term president in at least 100 years to get fewer votes in his reelection than he did the first time out. (FDR did less well in both his third and fourth terms.) That is a consequential fact, completely aside from whether...
