“On the other side of the aisle, Sen. Barack Obama, D-Illinois, campaigning in Idaho over the weekend said “there are people who say, `Well, he doesn’t believe in the Second Amendment,’ even though I come from a state — we’ve got a lot of hunters in downstate Illinois. And I have no intention of taking […]

“Flip it all around. Say the Democrat frontrunner was Lieberman (just as an example). Say the Democrat “base” was very vocally and enthusiastically asserting that he is too conservative, more conservative even than the most conservative Republicans. The Democrats are saying that because Lieberman is such a conservative, which would be very very bad for […]

One of the biggest questions people have today is how in the heck a man as unpopular as John McCain is with conservatives ended up as the heavy favorite to win the GOP nomination right before Super Tuesday. People have all sorts of wide-ranging theories, but in truth, McCain’s rise is just proof of the […]

Instead of running Barack, the Democrats should just run “The Rock,” He’s young, good looking, black, funny, charismatic, and has a great voice — and let’s be honest, that encompasses about 95% of Obama’s appeal, plus, as an added bonus, The Rock is only marginally less qualified to actually be President than Barack and can […]

“If you’ve got a Hillary and McCain race, you’ve got a third option: That’s the pistol on the bed table.” — Pat Buchanan on MSNBC.

Polygamy & welfare benefits for multiple wives — this isn’t a story from Pakistan or Saudi Arabia, it’s a story from Britain, Husbands with multiple wives have been given the go-ahead to claim extra welfare benefits following a year-long Government review, The Sunday Telegraph can reveal. Even though bigamy is a crime in Britain, the […]

In the spirit of bipartisanship and perhaps more importantly because Duncan Hunter and Fred Thompson are out of it, I have added Mitt Romney, Mike Huckabee, John McCain, and Ron Paul to the Right Wing News Slatecard. If you’d like to throw a few bucks towards your favorite candidate prior to Super Tuesday, I’m sure […]

Think enforcement by attrition won’t work? Well, tell it to ’em in Texas and they may have time to pay attention if the flood of people pouring into that state ever slows down, Illegal immigrants are flowing into Texas across its long borders. But they aren’t just swimming across the Rio Grande from Mexico or […]

Ron Paul Revolution Ron Paul’s ability to attract enthusiastic support among young people, especially online, has been quite impressive and unexpected. The degree to which that has translated into fundraising capability has been nothing short of spectacular. But look at the national polling trend lines for the past year: Ron Paul’s numbers are flatlined. He’s […]

What is it about conservatives that makes us so eager to lose? I wrote this yesterday (excerpt): Here’s something … conservatives must understand if they don’t want to relegated to a fringe: The electorate is not all that conservative. We will not win the Presidency with a strong conservative candidate. You can’t deduce anything from […]

I wanted to repost something I posted over at Hot Air a few days ago. I’ve edited and added some stuff to this post that I couldn’t do at HA, because I couldn’t go back and edit my post at HA. Some of the points I made in the following post I made in my […]

Finally. The Day has arrived. And there is nothing like a bit of Leftard hysteria to give a few laughs as we wait for the game to start, many of whom, I suspect would prefer to watch a soccer match between Iran and Venezuala Liberian Rubber Workers Won’t Enjoy Super Bowl Show Their Work Paid […]

In honor of my friend Jay, I pick the Giants to win by 3, 24-21. He loves the Giants. He deserves a miracle. P.S. Tom Brady annoys me, but he is a machine. Plus, I think he’s faking the ankle sprain. Psyche! Cross-posted at Dr. Melissa Clouthier.

If you don’t know who Lynne Stewart is, allow me to briefly educate you. She is a disbarred terrorist sympathizing lawyer that thinks the Blind Sheik was a remarkable man. She faced up to 30 years for conspiring with a terrorist and got a slap on the wrist of 28 months in October of last […]

David Sparks, a member of the 1980 and 1988 Bush for President campaigns, has some advice for Mitt Romney: It isn’t over after Super Tuesday. Since this sounds a lot like something I wrote just two days ago (“Patience, People, There’s Still Time for a Romney Surge“), I’m all ears. Here’s David Sparks’ take: THERE’S […]

With the seemingly never-ending primary season soon drawing to a close something rather unexpected has happened. Talk radio hosts like Glenn Beck and Rush Limbaugh, usually the standard bearers of right-wing thinking, have been getting flak from what used to be their stalwart political constituencies over their criticism of John McCain (and other candidates like […]

Update:Michelle has a petition for you to sign. Fox News gives us some details of Senator Jim DeMint’s (R, S.C.) efforts to revoke Federal funding that flows into the town of Berkeley, California over their recent decision to throw out military recruiters from within the confines of the city. U.S. Sen. Jim DeMint, R-S.C., says […]

As most of you know by now, Mark Steyn is charged with “flagrant Islamophobia” for what he wrote in America Alone, while Ezra Levant is accused of “exposing Muslims to hatred and contempt” by publishing the “Mohammed” cartoons. (The great Lee Harris analyzes the Steyn/Levant situation in the Weekly Standard, here.) Neither of these charges […]

During the last week, I’ve talked to people who really just don’t get how much opposition there is to John McCain in the Republican Party and who believe, incorrectly, that pretty much the entire conservative movement will come around and support him if he’s the nominee. Granted, most conservatives will back McCain, but there will […]

I just got off of a blogger teleconference with Mitt Romney. I wanted to ask a question, but didn’t get a chance to do so (The teleconference was heavily attended). Here are my notes — not quotes — from the teleconference. Opening Statement I think Hillary has won 4 and Barack has won 2, but […]

Admittedly the title is a wee bit of an exaggeration. Did I say “wee bit?” I really meant a huge exaggeration. Okay, okay, the title is so over-the-top that I would only write it in a column, not say it in front of an audience of conservatives because people might start throwing garbage. And let […]

The whole idea that conservatives can torpedo the Republican nominee in 2008 and have that be good for conservatism is crackers.

“We just have to slow down our economy and cut back our greenhouse gas emissions ’cause we have to save the planet for our grandchildren.” — Bill Clinton You know what they say: the Washington definition of a gaffe is accidentally telling the truth. And admitting that Democrats will deliberately damage our economy in order […]

We’re 40 minutes into tonights debate, in which actual policy is being discussed. And all I know is that I just feel the money going out of my wallet. This whole discussion of health care reform by these socialists scares the living hell out of me. Hillary DEMANDS that we buy health insurance, even among […]

8:00 — Despite the fact that I have an ad for the debate at the top of RWN, I had blessedly forgotten that there was a Democratic debate tonight. Ugh… 8:03 — You know what I like? Change! Me, too! Know whom I don’t like? George Bush! Me, too. I really want to cut and […]

Ron Paul can claim a victory of sorts, I suppose, because he has stayed in the race longer than his arch-rival Rudy Giuliani. Of course, he’s still polling in the low single digits, he has no chance to win, and tragically, my buddy E.M. Zanotti has found out that the Ron Paul blimp looks as […]
