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...

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...

The more Obama pushes class warfare, the more people reject class warfare.  That's certainly not what I expected. It's the counter-indicator effect.  If he's for it, the opposite will happen.  Perhaps he should announce an Unemployment Plan instead of a Jobs Plan. It's another one of those...

The first snowfall in Ithaca so far this year. Gingrich poses an asymmetrical threat to Obama.  Isn't that how you fight an opponent which is better funded and better organized? All those commentators at The Washington Examiner who hate Newt because he was a "lobbyist" in reality if...
