Obama can celebrate the jobs report, the American people cannot

I wrote off Politico a long time ago. Remind me not to look at the Politico links you send. Sure, just like NYT and WaPo it's hard not to look and link, because it covers so much ground. But really, nonsense like this article written from three...
The left must not have been mentally prepared for Obama's stuttering, stammering, deer-in-the-headlights, dismal debate performance Wednesday night. Because the reaction from the left was total meltdown. So I've compiled the best. Feel free to add your own in the comments. The meltdown that started it all:...
From reader Larry in Miami, who took this photo on Lincoln Rd in South Beach. Larry is an expectant father, and further writes: That debate was so exciting! We were jumping up and down on the sofa LOL Please don't let the mother-to-be jump on the couch,...
I was just on the Silvio Canto Blog Talk Radio Show, and towards the end of our discussion, when I was talking about how Elizabeth Warren has worked on at least 22 court litigations since joining Harvard earning hundreds of thousands of dollars, it dawned...

I have written numerous times about AARP's love affair with Obamacare, including recently disclosed documents showing coordination of strategy. Proponents of Obamacare often cited AARP's support as the equivalent of the Good Housekeeping Seal of Approval. Few AARP members probably realize how big a role AARP...
The media have fully deployed their defenses to protect President Obama after his dismal debate performance last night. So far two tactics have been employed, the first is the thinly veiled "fact check" attacks, while the other is calling Romney a bully for his take-charge...

I watched the debate without the company of the Web or Twitter, so I was surprised afterward to see the consensus that Romney had wiped the floor with Obama. I humbly disagree. He did well. He didn't do well enough. Last night was a major reason...

Elizabeth Warren still is not Cherokee. She never was. Her family lore is grossly exaggerated, in all likelihood by Warren herself not her parents. Yet whenever anyone questions this family lore, Warren acts like it is an attack on her family, thereby shutting down challenges to...
I think it was a tremendous victory for Romney at the debate last night. Usual caveats about there being a month to go, he still may be trailing in some key states, etc. Romney needed to take his case directly to the American people because the media is...
From reader and prior photographer Ryan: ...
Have you learned to tune your t.v. immediately to MSNBC after any political event? If you haven't, you would have missed an epic rant tonight against Obama from *up tingles* Chris Matthews where he chastises Obama for simply "enduring" through the presidential debate: "I don't know...

Even I want him to have a teleprompter. Obama's delivery is painful #debate

Did anyone just catch O's slight smile as Romney talks? The pres seems slightly amused. Also seems that he senses a real fight tonight

President doesn't sound as confident as Romney who is being much more forceful

Romney:"I've got 5 boys. I'm used to people saying the same thing over and over again hoping it becomes true."

Romney line on five sons/used to hearing something repeated - great memorable rebuke of POTUS.
