Although I was still an unthinking Democrat back in 2000, and I cast my vote for Gore without blinking an eye, I was sufficiently objective to concede one fact: Bush seemed like the much nicer guy. Gore might hold forth on erudite subjects at a cocktail party, but Bush was the guy you’d want to [...]

I subscribe via e-mail to updates from the democrat National Committee (dNC), in addition to the Republican counterpart organization and a few right-wing think tanks here and there.

The associations that Barack Obama makes and the people he has the audacity to model his image after are very much fair game, relevant and important. Only an ignorant fool would pretend otherwise.

Today I’m speaking Republican as a postmortem to yesterday’s atrocious debate. Nearly all of the nominees have changed their positions over time, pandered to one special interest group or another and flip flopped out of convenience in an effort to secure votes. In some respects this is a testament to electoral system. We are successful [...]
