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...

High taxes. Crime. Too hot in summer, too cold in winter. Democrats. Too expensive. Public sector unions which control everything. Want me to continue? Thanks to reader Alex who, after seeing yesterdays post about Manhattan Mini Storage advertising, sent this photo and wrote: I took a picture of this billboard last...

The champagne corks must have been popping at Politico sometime just after 2 p.m. today, as Sharon Bialek presented her charges against Herman Cain. After a week of obsessive reporting (at least 91 stories about Cain's alleged sexual harassment of employees at the National Restaurant Association),...

Over at the DailyBeast, Stefan Theil has a really great write-up about rich nations interacting with poor nations, using a comparison of Texas/Louisiana/Florida & Greece/Italy/Spain.   Imagine 27 Barack Obamas and John Boehners trying to get a debt and banking crisis under control. That, in essence,...
