Final assessment:  Newt was the star, combative in a good way and very knowledgeable.  Romney was strong at the start but faded.  Cain dealt with accusations well but went to 9-9-9 for everything, I think he's still well liked but not making the case for...

LATEST NEWS

As I mentioned yesterday, Ying Ma came back to Cornell last night to present her take on "Chinese state capitalism." I took notes on the presentation: Basic overview: In the 1990s, China had an acrimonious relationship w. US. Politicians and commentators were constantly complaining about China's...

... when I'm a big, powerful blogger, I'll get offers like this: CHARGING IN MY GARAGE RIGHT NOW:  A NISSAN LEAF.  Actually, it’s fully charged  this morning after about 12 hours on the 110v portable charger.  No, I didn’t buy one:  The Nissan folks loaned me...

The long-promised Phase 2 is here: Phase 2 will take place sometime over the summer [hah!], hopefully sooner rather than later.  Phase 2 will include the creation of a format off the home page for registered users in which we can focus on specific political races,...

I did not follow yesterday's elections as closely as I should have.  I've been a bit, er, distracted the past week. Ohio was a loss for those who want to save state and local governments from the grip of unsustainable union control.  The national unions went...

Newt appeared on Center Seat to face the panel Mitt Romney refuses to face (video h/t The Right Scoop): Steven Hayward at Powerline points out a key point: Maybe the best part was when Steve Hayes played the infamous TV ad Newt cut with Nancy Pelosi three...

How ironic that Karen Kraushaar, whose identity became known only yesterday, called Herman Cain a serial denier. It turns out that Kraushaar is a serial complainer, demanding money at a second employer for supposed inappropriate language, via AP: A woman who settled a sexual harassment complaint against...

and pretty soon the nanny state will try to stop us from using cell phones while driving. Thanks to reader Robert in Texas, who writes: I saw this in the visitors parking lot at the Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs this summer. Covers all the bases, yes? ...

Summary of press conference.  Complete denial.  Doesn't even remember Bialek.  As to other named accuser, Karen Kraushaar, repeats that only accusation he remembers is about gesturing the height of his wife.  Took plenty of questions from reporters from major networks. ------------ Starts with lawyer Lin Wood, who...

I've enjoyed watching various candidates on Brett Baier's Center Seat. It's a place for the panel to question the candidates pretty vigorously. But one candidate will not appear. It's inexplicable. And now confirmed:  Added: Baier still is trying, this time for a one-on-one. If Romney is...

I've posted before about the Chinese real estate bubble, and what will happen when this bubble bursts. Rather than worshipping the Chinese economy like Obama does (high speed trains anyone?), we should be recognizing that the Chinese model, like the Soviet model, is artificial and contrived. ...

The opinion isn't on the court website yet, but here's how The Wall Street Journal describes it: A federal appeals court in Washington ruled Tuesday that last year's federal health-care overhaul is constitutional, handing the Obama administration another legal victory ahead of the Supreme Court's likely...

Ying Ma, a former president of the Cornell Review, has come back to campus for a visit. She's definitely one of the better-known names with Review pedigree. (J.P. Freire & Ann Coulter are two other prominent Review alums.) She released a book last year, Chinese Girl...

I've been focusing on Newt's rise since the debates in early September, when he distinguished himself as the statesman on stage and the guy focused on the ultimate prize, defeating Obama.  While Perry and Romney squabbled, and Santorum and Bachmann tried to score points attacking...

Herman Cain is fighting back against accusations made yesterday by Sharon Bialek.  Cain will hold a press conference at 5 p.m. Eastern today to address the charges: "There is not an ounce of truth to all these allegations" and the graphic account from Sharon Bialek is...
