Palin rallies Orange County with terrific Victory 2010 speech
By: Dan Spencer (Diary) | October 17th at 06:00 PM |
Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin on Saturday rallied an excited crowd at a Republican National Committee rally in Orange County. Palin took on the Democrats’ leaders: “Are you ready to fight for your freedoms?You fire Pelosi, retire Reid and their whole band of merry followers, and we get back on the right track.” She took on the press: “For the press, yes I shall be | Read More »
What’s the cost to taxpayers for Patty Murray’s 911 call to Obama and Biden?
By: Bryan Myrick (Diary) | October 17th at 01:14 PM |
Democrats are hitting the panic button in Washington State as the race between Democratic Senator Patty Murray and Republican challenger Dino Rossi narrows down to the nail-biter many of us knew it would be. How much is Murray’s eleventh-hour 911 call to Pres. Barack and First Lady Michelle Obama and Vice Pres. Joe Biden costing taxpayers? After already receiving two visits from the executive branch’s | Read More »
The Condescender-in-Chief
By: Bill S (Diary) | October 17th at 10:59 AM |
Two years into the Obama presidency, and this kind of thing really shouldn’t be a surprise. Obama told the several dozen donors that he was offering them his “view from the Oval Office.” He faulted the economic downturn for Americans’ inability to “think clearly” and said the burden is on Democrats “to break through the fear and the frustration people are feeling.” The President believes | Read More »
Tech at Night: Lots more Net Neutrality
By: Neil Stevens (Diary) | October 16th at 02:00 AM |
Alright I admit it. I’m kicking off tonight’s Tech at Night with this article from NationalJournal.com because it mentions me. I like feedback. But seriously it’s an important overview of Net Neutrality with respect to the conservative grassroots and the TEA party. Our side has been resistant to any action (Because as Digital Society points out, we don’t support action for its own sake), but | Read More »
On the new West Virginia polls
By: Neil Stevens (Diary) | October 15th at 03:30 PM |
Since Democrat Joe Manchin, West Virginia Governor and Senate candidate, literally shot a copy of the “Cap and Trade” bill that DC Democrats tend to support, it’s been clear that Republican John Raese’s easy days of running against Barack Obama were going to get harder. But the new Orion Strategies poll for Marshall University of the race just isn’t credible.

The air war tightens the California race
By: Neil Stevens (Diary) | October 14th at 02:15 PM |
As I’ve not been shy about saying, I have an emotional attachment to the California Senate race. I live here, I’ve always lived here, and in fact Democrat Barbara Boxer was first elected to the Senate when I was first beginning to follow politics, back when I was 14 years old. So I knew the television ad campaigns would make or break the race for | Read More »

Why Not Barack Obama?
By: Erick Erickson (Diary) | October 14th at 05:00 AM |
Last evening, the President of Chile called out by name two world leaders for special thanks for their support — British Prime Minister David Cameron and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Barack Obama’s name was not mentioned. Barack Obama, purported leader of the free world, resides in the Western Hemisphere with the Chilean President and is supposedly restoring American greatness in the world. What has | Read More »
‘The Un’ vs The One
By: Steve Maley (Diary) | October 13th at 10:00 AM |
What a scary world we live in. Who would have guessed that in the 21st century one of the world’s largest military powers, a nuclear state no less, would contemplate handing the reins of power to an untested neophyte? The exact details of his birth have been kept under wraps. The details of his elite private education are shadowy, too. He’s the ultimate product of | Read More »
Barack Obama the Birther
By: Erick Erickson (Diary) | October 12th at 12:59 PM |
Barack Obama accusing the Chamber of Commerce of laundering foreign money and putting it into the election this year is as crazy as the Birthers demanding to see his birth certificate having convinced themselves Obama is a foreign born manchurian candidate. I largely agree with Glenn Reynolds on this. Obama is raising the specter of foreign influence in the election so his base views the | Read More »
Throwing the book at Obama
By: Dan Spencer (Diary) | October 11th at 11:30 AM |
Throw the book at somebody: to punish or criticize someone as severely as possible. – The Free Dictionary As president Obama tried to rally supporters in Philadelphia to staunch the rising unpopularity of his radical policies before the midterm elections, a book was thrown at him. The U.K.’s Daily Mail reports, the “flying missile narrowly missed hitting the President yesterday.” You can see the book fly by Obam’s | Read More »
“Economic Treason” & the Confiscation of America
By: LaborUnionReport (Diary) | October 11th at 06:00 AM |
YOU are the ONLY thing in the way of them fulfilling their agenda. Over the last year (and longer), we’ve written on the union push to nationalize America’s retirement system and how important the $165 billion union pension bailout bill is to union bosses and their lackeys in the Democratic Party. Moreover, for two years, we’ve written how America’s health care system will be socialized medicine within three | Read More »
Barack Obama Is ‘A Threat to Our Democracy’
By: Erick Erickson (Diary) | October 11th at 05:00 AM |
“[U]nlike the Chamber of Commerce, the Obama campaign most likely accepted into its campaign coffers donations from foreign individuals and never returned the money.” When you’ve hung around with so many people who idealize communism and socialism and loath the United States, you tend to develop an inner-Soviet voice. Barack Obama sure has. He let it slip with Joe the Plumber and Obama’s talk of | Read More »
“Longest Stretch Since the 1930s”/Second Highest Deficit on Record
By: peteseat (Diary) | October 8th at 10:39 AM |
With today’s news it’s even clearer: the Obama-Pelosi-Ellsworth economic experiment has failed. Our economy has shed another 95,000 jobs keeping the unemployment rate at 9.6 percent and sending the broader underemployment rate – including those with part-time jobs seeking full-time employment and others who have given up altogether – up to 17.1 percent. What’s even more troubling is our nation’s “jobless rate has now topped | Read More »
A metric ton of new polling today
By: Neil Stevens (Diary) | October 6th at 08:00 PM |
Good evening. We have a great deal of new polling that’s flooded in. Much of it is interesting too, so rather than pick and choose which polls I’ll cover in depth and which I will omit, instead I’ll give a quick look at all the good ones. We’ve got Senate races in Nevada, Connecticut, West Virginia, Ohio, New York, Missouri, and Delaware, plus races for | Read More »

The Incongruous Moment
By: Erick Erickson (Diary) | October 5th at 10:25 AM |
We have reached the incongruous moment — that moment in time where things not in keeping with the surrounds and intended visuals suddenly merge into making perfect sense. Walter Mondale is giving advice to Barack Obama on how to connect with the American people. It was Mondale who, yesterday, told Barack Obama to ditch the teleprompter. This was preceded by Michael Dukakis admitting he had | Read More »
