As readers know, I've been blogging about the Recall (Robert) Wirch effort for several months, long before the national media paid attention to the fact that there were Democratic State Senators in Wisconsin subject to recall. Here are links to some (but not all) of my...

The post yesterday Name That Bus Tour received a very good response in the comments, at Facebook and on Twitter. Here are the five I have selected as finalists in addition to Mitt Romney's original: The Magical Misery Tour (Mitt Romney) Tour de Farce (Facebook comment by Red...

Name that bus tour

Posted by William A. Jacobson on August 15, 2011 60 Comments

I see that Mitt Romney has dubbed Obama's bus tour the Magical Misery Tour. How about these alternatives: The Driving Through Flyover Country Tour. The "So This Is How The Common People Travel" Tour. The Make Sure They Don't Cling To The Bus Tour. The "This Bus Tour Created or Saved 2,000,000 Jobs"...

In dropping out when he did, Tim Pawlenty may have done his apparent foe Michele Bachmann a big favor. From their past scuffles in Minnesota politics to their fiery confrontation at last week's debate to the fact that her defeating him in Iowa ultimately...

Report – CNN, CBS and NY Times polls show CNN, CBS and NY Times anti-Tea Party strategy working

Posted by William A. Jacobson on August 14, 2011 33 Comments

There does seem something very circular about CNN, CBS and NY Times polling showing an increase in negative views of the Tea Party, considering that such negative views are driven by biased CNN, CBS and NY Times reporting blaming the Tea Party movement for the S&P downgrade of the U.S....

Once again, the mainstream media is chasing after Sarah Palin as she visits various part of the country. Just like her early summer bus tour, I can't help but laugh to see the likes of Chuck Todd breathlessly reporting such important events as Palin getting back in...

Anyone but Bachmann

As you know, I have zero tolerance for Republicans who trash talk Sarah Palin. Three years of Palin Derangement Syndrome have made me allergic; Palin stands apart from other Republican candidates in that regard. There is only one candidate in the Republican field whose campaign staff has used trash...

But today is not a work day, so we should be okay. And it's a good thing the driver is from Maine and not Tennessee. Personally, I'm against profanity on bumper stickers. Children could be watching. So I would have used the following wording instead: "Obama: The...
