The relevant part of the story from the Associated Press: A woman who police say led officers on a high-speed chase that ended in a crash that killed her unborn child is reported in serious condition at Grady Memorial Hospital in Atlanta. The headline? “Crash after chase near Atlanta kills fetus”
“Across the country we are pushing the GOP right where the GOP can go right. But at the end of the day, we are on the Republican team.… If you …want to agitate for a third party … go elsewhere.” I admit it. I am guilty of it. Knee deep in primary season battling to get conservatives elected against a bunch of squishy picks, it | Read More »

There was a USA Today story the other day that taxes in the United States are ridiculously low now. The basic gist of the story, pushed by leftwing groups who want everyone to bow down and face Washington for its “gifts” — never mind that it is your money to begin with — is that there is no conceivable way anybody in their right mind | Read More »
Now that the DeMint endorsement of Rand Paul and the McConnell endorsement of Trey Grayson have soaked into the bluegrass political landscape, the question is this: whose did more good? I think we now know. Rand Paul is starting the last week of the Kentucky primary 16 points ahead of Trey Grayson. I may need to get up to Bowling Green next week for this.
So Marlin Stutzman did not make it across the finish line and Dan Coats did. Well, we at RedState have always maintained that we are conservatives in the primary and Republican in the General. So we’re all in for Dan Coats. But along the way there is something more. Activists need to get their boots on the ground and get into the process to help | Read More »
Let’s ignore the lies Trey Grayson is telling about Rand Paul and just look at the debate from the other night. This pretty much encapsulates the debate, except it is really hard to convey the total level of smugness that exudes from Trey Grayson. South Park could do a follow up to their smug cloud episode and move to Kentucky where it’d just follow Trey | Read More »
I’m with Jeb Bush on this one. I think Scott Walker is a great candidate in Wisconsin. I haven’t spent a lot of time talking about him because I’ve been pre-occupied at the gubernatorial level with Karen Handel and Nikki Haley, but I’m glad to see the Drudge Report mentioning Scott. Jeb Bush is endorsing him and, miracle of miracles, Newt Gingrich and I are | Read More »
RedState Morning Briefing For May 12, 2010 Go to www.RedStateMB.com to getthe Morning Briefing every morning at no charge. Good morning from Carrollton, GA. Can I just say I don’t care whether Elena Kagan played baseball, softball, whiffle ball, or beer pong. The question that must be asked is whether this woman is a socialist who believes the courts can advance a social policy not | Read More »
Apparently Elena Kagan is a softball player, or something like that. It is not a subject I care to write about, want to write about, or think is relevant to much of anything considering the woman’s only definitive answer on any matter of jurisprudence is that she believes there is no federal constitutional right to gay marriage. So that’s that. Except it isn’t. And it | Read More »
Much is being made by this comment I made on CNN tonight. I stand by it. But don’t let it distract you from the fact that I also stand by Chuck DeVore. What I said and what I meant is that the election is four weeks away in California. In two more weeks I’ll check again and see what the polling shows. I believe Tom | Read More »
The special election happened in Georgia today for Nathan Deal’s seat in the 9th. With 97 percent reporting, former state Rep. Tom Graves (R) had 34 percent and former state Sen. Lee Hawkins (R) had 23 percent. The Associated Press called the race as headed to a runoff with 80 percent reporting. Typically in Georgia if a candidate goes into a runoff with a 10 | Read More »
“We have too many of those in Washington — people who give Harry Reid campaign contributions, then run against him.” Pretty much the entirety of the Republican Establishment is lining up behind Sue Lowden to beat Harry Reid in Nevada. Not me. I just don’t trust her. From her record in the Nevada legislature to her time as head of the Nevada GOP, I think | Read More »
Proving they are a petulant bunch, the Senate Republicans today threw up their collective middle finger at conservative activists. David Vitter’s amendment to the Financial Deform package would have required an actual audit of the Federal Reserve. The amendment was heavily lobbied for by conservative activists across the country. in fact, so popular was Vitter’s amendment that even Senator Bob Benentt declared on Saturday in | Read More »
Human Events has a lot of background information on Elena Kagan today. It is kind of a one stop shop. You can check out these pieces: Supreme Court Sleeper Agent Kagan’s Judicial Hero Vets Blast the Nomination Hatch Says Kagan ‘Very Liberal’
