On Tuesday of next week, the GOP is going to take a beating. The only question at this point is how bad of a beating it’s going to be. Even though we have less than a week to go before the election, it is — at least to a certain point– an unanswerable question because […]

These are my favorite (based simply on which ones I personally enjoyed the most) political/online ads of the 2006 cycle: Honorable Mentions Mark Kennedy: About Mark (A “meet the candidate” ad) George Allen: Webb’s attacks on Women (This hurt Webb) Stop Shuler: Stop Shuler — A Better Day (This is a funny joke ad) Top […]

From the Washington Times: “Senate Republicans with enormous campaign war chests are refusing to transfer significant amounts of money to help fellow Republicans who are cash-strapped and face defeat in the final weeks of the campaign. The stinginess alarms some of the Republican Party’s top campaign strategists, especially because it is in such stark contrast […]

In the Senate, things have improved a bit for the GOP, although they’re still looking grim overall. It looks as if Lincoln Chafee, Rick Santorum, and Mike DeWine are toast. Conrad Burns is still behind, but appears to have some momentum and if enough undecided voters break his way, which is possible in a conservative […]

You Hot Soup Conservative Forum, which I created, — here. What do you think of the Hot Soup website so far? Also, on a side note, if I were to create a forum for Right Wing News, would you be interested in participating? Do you think a lot of people would use it?

Hilariously, there are liberals claiming that this devastating and clever attack ad is racist. When I first heard that, to be completely honest with you, I had no idea what the “racist” part of the ad was even supposed to be. So, let’s try a little experiment. Watch this lethal broadside against Harold Ford and […]

A lot of people have been talking about the Michael J. Fox ad. To tell you the truth, it’s really a pitiful ad all the way around. To begin with, what Ann Coulter said about people like the Jersey Girls, Cindy Sheehan, and Max Cleland in her book Godless is every bit as applicable to […]

Last night, I was having a discussion with a friend of mine about illegal immigration and he asked a question that you’re going to hear from more people as time goes on. That question was: if illegal immigration is such a big issue, why are Republicans in the House taking such a beating this year […]

As an experiment, I thought it might be fun to shorten Cindy Sheehan’s latest column, cut it down from 1340 to 169 words. …puppet government of Iraq…Vietnam…Nixon’s “Vietnamization” program….warmonger Kissinger…even though my own son was killed in Iraq…death-drums pounding for Iran…Nixon’s invasion of Cambodia……War Machine…busy laundering the blood…National Bank of Lost Hopes and Dreams…Robert McNamara….BushCo…My […]

On Thursday of this week, I’m planning to do a list of the best Republican campaign commercials of 2006 and I’m hoping that I can get some suggestions in the comments section to make sure that I don’t miss any great ads. All the ads do need to be videos (no radio spots will be […]

“The gavel of the speaker of the House is in the hands of special interests, and now it will be in the hands of America’s children.” — Nancy Pelosi

With polls showing Republicans could lose control of Congress after the November elections, Capitol Hill physicians have been swamped with Democrats reporting symptoms of optimism, a condition almost unknown among their people. Eli Lilly, the maker of the anti-depressant drug Prozac, annouced today that sales in the Washington D.C. region have plunged in the weeks […]

Last night, I learned that Chris Bowers over at MyDD has been organizing a Googlebomb campaign for the 2006 election. Now normally, I think Googlebombs are kind of dumb. One of the most famous Googlebombs involved making George Bush’s name come up under the words “miserable failure.” My reaction to that was, “Cute, but so […]

It’s time to reevaluate the Senate races again for next to last time before the election. The higher the rating is, the greater the chance is that the seat might change parties. Dark Horse Races: (These are real long shot races) 15) Mark Kennedy (R) vs. Amy Klobuchar (D) (Dem Seat) 14) Maria Cantwell* (D) […]

The Democratic Party is running an online, matching pledge drive. Basically, you put in an amount you’d like to give and then once someone else agrees to match it, you both give at the same time. Granted, it’s kind of a Mickey Mouse idea. I mean you’ll only give $25 if someone else writes into […]

Here’s an email I received this week-end: not sure if you’re having a Q&A this friday, but here’s a question for you: in the 2004 elections, was anybody predicting that the GOP would pick up seats in Congress (as well as win the White House)? there seems to be alot of doom-and-gloom on the right […]

“An average of 112 cars a day have been torched across France so far this year and there have been 15 attacks a day on police and emergency services. Nearly 3,000 police officers have been injured in clashes this year. Officers have been badly injured in four ambushes in the Paris outskirts since September. Some […]

“When I asked Gore Vidal at dinner why the White House seemed so serene and at ease about the vote, he replied that, this time around, the Bush-Cheney henchmen could simply call on martial law. He glumly noted that we are so far down the road toward totalitarianism that, even if Democrats do win back […]

Yesterday, I did a phone mini-interview with Bob Corker, the GOP candidate for the Senate in Tennessee. Corker’s race against Harold Ford is incredibly important because if the Democrats are going to take over the Senate, it looks like they’re going to have to beat Bob Corker to do it. So, with the election just […]

Unfortunately, pollsters haven’t been doing a good job of polling seats where the GOP has an opportunity to pick up seats. So, I’ve been scouring the polling data, making phone calls to campaigns, talking to contacts, I’ve come up with, at least for the moment, our top 6 pick-up opportunities in the House. The links […]

Earlier today, as I was perusing the The Smirking Chimp, I ran across an ad for a company called CarryaBigSticker and I thought you might enjoy seeing a few of the stickers that apparently appeal to a liberal audience. Enjoy, read it and weep, you know, whatever does it for you:
