It took one whole day for the left to go after Rand Paul. They see these numbers and they want to Terminate Him (politically of course). I figured that Rand Paul would be attacked and that he would be an easier target than Trey Grayson. Dan Riehl says: Mind you, this is only the opening […]

This may be the single funniest campaign commercial I’ve ever seen, Yes, “Amnesty” John McCain has now become the toughest man in America on border security — which is hilarious. Because, he’s the same guy who once said, “By the way, I think the fence is least effective. But I’ll build the godd@mned fence if […]

So, moderate Republican Charlie Crist just went independent in a spite bid to try to steal the seat from the GOP? Sort of like moderate Republican Dede Scozzafava, who supported a Democrat when she couldn’t win? But wait, could Crist be more fairly compared to moderate Republican Arlen Specter, who switched parties to try to […]

Increasing Republican numbers in Congress is a prerequisite to getting the country back on the right track, but in of itself, it’s not sufficient to get the job done. Simply put, the GOP needs to be taught a lesson that the Democrats have long since learned: You’ve got to respect and fear your base. In […]

When Michael Steele ran for the Senate in Maryland in 2006, the Rightroots fundraising group that I led enthusiastically supported him. Then, when Steele ran for RNC chairman, I backed him for that, too. There were a lot of qualified candidates who could have done a good job: Saul Anuzis, Ken Blackwell, Katon Dawson — […]

The fact that the Republican:  Party is having a hard time raising money has been much remarked upon. So has the amount they’ve been spending to do it: Both the national Democratic and Republican party committees spend about two-thirds of the money they take in on the care and comfort of committee staffs and on […]

Unfortunately, that leads to little confidence in the GOP’s ability to roll back the massive expanses in government spending that were passed throughout the Bush and Obama administrations.:  The GOP seems to have an all-around chronic problem with embezzlement and mishandling of funds and resources of late. The whole “Voyeur lesbian bondage club ‘scandal’” was […]

I supported Michael Steele when he ran for the RNC Chair, supported him after, and still support him. After watching how things have played out over the last few weeks, let me say something, first to the people that don’t like Steele and then to Steele. First of all, for the people wondering about Steele: […]

RNC Chairman says the attacks he’s receiving are partly racism and that blacks have a smaller margin of error. I’d say that’s true for some few people, just as it’s true for some small segments who have disliked Obama from the beginning. Mostly though, it’s sore-loserism and establishment-ism and power-ism. You know, those “isms” that […]

Robert Stacy McCain at the American Spectator (doing great work, by the way, subscribe to their magazine) writes about the Senate primary race in Arizona. A couple money quotes: “Obviously, the gulf between my opponent’s rhetoric and the reality is so great it exceeds the geographic dimensions of our own Grand Canyon,” Hayworth says. “It’s […]

Today, Jonathan Strong of the Daily Caller headlines with an article titled “High flyer: RNC Chairman Steele suggested buying private jet with GOP funds”. He asserts the following: Once on the ground, FEC filings suggest, Steele travels in style. A February RNC trip to California, for example, included a $9,099 stop at the Beverly Hills […]

On Tuesday, I wrote a post pushing the idea of defunding Obamacare that got a lot of play around the blogosphere. By Wednesday morning, Dick Morris had out a column suggesting the same thing. Last night, while interviewing John Boehner, Megyn Kelly said, “there was talk of the Republicans just refusing to fund this.” John […]

The Republican National Committee launched FireNancyPelosi.com immediately upon the passage of the health care bill by House Democrats. It has been a flaming success raising far more money than they even expected within hours of putting up the site. Todd Herman, Director of New Media says: With barely any advance advertising (ads only went up […]
