Senator Sherrod Brown isn’t content with the Obama economy he has helped yield during his six years in the U.S. Senate. Like the President, he wants more time to drive jobs away and allow the double dip recession to take hold. At a time when we need the economy to get moving again, Brown is pushing a litany of New Society programs adverse to a | Read More »
The President won last night’s debate. Barely, but he won it. He started off on the right foot and he was simply stronger and more coherent than Romney was. He came off as strong and assured. Meanwhile, Mr. Romney seemed to be highlighting differences between him and the President, without actually offering any differences. Most importantly, Romney failed to bring this debate back to the | Read More »
The most important question that should be asked by Bob Schieffer in tonight’s foreign policy-centered debate is whether the President of the United States has the executive authority to bypass the due process guaranteed by our Constitution and order the assassination of American citizens. Last year, President Obama ordered the assassination of American born, American citizen, Anwar al-Awlaki in Yemen. The President’s people deemed this | Read More »
Last night, former Governor Tim Kaine (D) faced off against former Governor/Senator George Allen (R). Kaine clearly articulated his attacks more clearly and upbeat than Allen did. For that, the casual observer has to give Kaine the W. The two squared off on each other’s records, Obamacare and the Bowles-Simpson deficit reduction. To recap — neither candidate loves Obamacare. Neither would have voted for Bowles-Simpson. | Read More »
The fix is beginning to come in. Mitt Romney’s numbers are improving coming out of Debate #2 this past Tuesday. The Media almost unanimously handed the W over to Mr. Obama. What they failed to realize was that he didn’t have a message that was resonating with people who are actually hurting. As radio host Andy Dean put it, the President won, “most improved debater” | Read More »
The average approval rating of President George W. Bush’s first term was 62%. The average approval rating of his second term was 37%.

In the 24 hour news cycle age, the attacks actually gained lasting traction. Although | Read More »
As expected, Romney’s win was not as clear as two weeks ago. He was as brilliant, but Obama came prepared. The left is already spinning this as a win for Obama. This view cannot honestly be arrived at by any independent observer. Romney was flawlessly articulate for the first hour. Obama was visibly angry and it showed. Libya Many are focusing on Candy Crawley’s | Read More »
Tonight, Mr. Romney will face off against the President in the second of three Presidential Debates. There is no doubt that the pressure will be turned up on both candidates. Mr. Obama needs to have a successful performance to instill confidence back into the wandering eyes of independent voters. What Mr. Romney really needs is not only another dominant performance, but a litany of sound | Read More »
That will be the question in tonight’s Vice Presidential Debate. The answer is of course, yes. But it won’t be easy. While Paul Ryan is the more intelligent, competent and able of the two veep candidates, Biden is the only one who has ever played at this level. He has ran for statewide office, the presidential primaries and the vice-presidency. Many republicans have seemed eager | Read More »
On Wednesday night, President Obama lost the presidential debate to Mitt Romney. On Thursday, rather than focusing solely on his policy proposals or being gracious in defeat, Mr. Obama made a strange decision. Mr. Obama chose to reply with a day of snark. In the vein of Maddow, Olbermann, Beck and Hannity, Obama took a childish and sarcastic tone on the day following his defeat. | Read More »
