Via Ace, OlbermannWatch brings us this: The good news is that more people are probably watching this on RedState than saw it on TV.

Tonight’s speech was not the stick of dynamite that last night’s speech by Sarah Palin was. It was not supposed to be. It accomplished everything it set out to accomplish. It established McCain’s personal story of heroism, but above that, it put that story in the context of his vision for the entire country. His delivery dragged and was a bit awkward at points – | Read More »

Folks, it is time for us to fight back. With the nomination of Sarah Palin, the media have really let the masks slip. Donate to the RNC Victory Fund. Right now, the “coverage” the major media networks are providing for the Republican National Convention ought to count as an in-kind contribution to Barack Obama’s campaign. In the middle of Fred Thompson’s primetime stemwinder speech, I | Read More »

You know, when the Obama campaign released the (since disavowed) initial reaction to Sarah Palin’s selection as John McCain’s running mate, I thought it was just the product of a hastily-written and ill-conceived statement that referred to her as the “former mayor of a town of 9,000″ rather than “Governor of the State of Alaska.” Then, when Obama’s surrogates repeatedly responded to the completely accurate | Read More »

(Click for full image) Apparently, the New York Times has decided to take a day off from the exhausting work of alerting our terrorist enemies to our secret plans to stop them from attacking us, and has decided to focus instead on the vital issue of Bristol Palin’s pregnancy. Currently, on the front page of the New York Times there are three (THREE!) front page | Read More »

I’m sure that newcomers to the blogosphere often wonder why anyone ever reads Andrew Sullivan. Since Obama came along, after all, Sullivan has been nothing but nothing more than just another no-talent Obama sycophant who is inordinately obsessed with convincing himself that the Catholic Church does not really mean what it teaches on homosexuality. In other words, no one that anyone would want to read. | Read More »

We are, at long last, getting the first of the polling conducted entirely after the DNC Convention and the announcement of Sarah Palin as John McCain’s running mate. This polling is telling a consistent story: whatever bounce Obama may have gotten from the convention and the greatest speech in political history*, it has completely evaporated with the announcement of Sarah Palin as John McCain’s running | Read More »

So the various talking heads were discussing the Palin selection this morning, and typically, they were trying to come at the thing from all angles. On CNN, John Roberts walked unwittingly into a haymaker when he mused: John Roberts: She has a child with Down’s Syndrome, and care for children like that can take a lot of time. Is there any concern about the balance | Read More »

In the fevered imaginations of modern American liberals, Republicans (in particular, George W. Bush) have been hard at work these last 8 years silencing dissent, blackholing the press, and shipping everyone who disagrees with them off to Gitmo. Of course, this notion is ludicrous. One need look no farther than the editors and publishers of the New York Times, who today walk the streets as | Read More »

Barack Obama really, really does not like it when you point out that his political career was launched in the home of unrepentant (although incompetent) terrorist Bill Ayers. He dislikes it so much, he wants to have the people who are doing it thrown in jail. Seriously. Yeah, apparently, the Democrats are still absolutely obsessed with the narrative about how Kerry lost the election because | Read More »

Several days ago, former sentient being Douglas Kmiec wrote a piece in which he alleged that the Democratic party platform had become more pro-life under Obama’s watch. Not having time to actually read the platform, I took Kmiec’s word that some additional platitudes had been added, while shaking my head in sadness that anyone even vaguely familiar with Barack Obama’s abortion record could believe in | Read More »

It turns out that I was completely wrong to doubt that Barack Obama would change the way things are done in Washington. I should have seen the signs earlier: but when Barack funneled $1 mil of taxpayer money to the hospital where his wife works after they gave her a substantial raise, I thought it was merely a bold, one time move – nothing more | Read More »

Lo, I believe that I have. And now, as a bonus, it appears that he’s a liar. I know, I know, “liar” is generally more or less subsumed within “morally depraved,” but in this case, it turns out that he’s a liar in addition to being the sort of person who thinks it ought to be legal to allow babies who survive attempted abortions to | Read More »

This, really, was about as predictable as the sun rising in the east this morning: My interest is in making sure we’ve got the kind of comprehensive energy policy that can bring down gas prices,” Obama told The Palm Beach Post early into a two-day swing through Florida. But on Saturday morning, Obama said this “wasn’t really a new position.” “I made a general point | Read More »

I understand that you’re busy whacking Bobby Jindal around for paying insufficient attention to some whiners in the media, but perhaps you could notice a wee bit of news that is both 1) relevant to your stated mission, and 2) on the sunnier side of things? Specifically, the news that Jindal is doing his best Tom Coburn impersonation, angering local politicos by wiping out their | Read More »

Prepare yourself: we are going to have our arses handed to us in November. I remain cautiously optimistic that McCain might win the White House, but I regard it as a near certainty that we are going to lose 3-6 seats in the Senate, and between 15-30 seats in the House. That is not to say that I want any of these things to happen. | Read More »
