I have been saying since the NJ & VA blow out elections for governor in 2009 the Dems were in deep trouble for 2010. In fact, I predicted that the parameters of the stimulus bill rushed through congress in February 2009 would be the foundation of dramatic democratic failures in 2010. Here is what I […]

When the country heard the word ‘transparent’ coming out of the inexperienced young senator from Illinois during the presidential campaign season of 2008, they rightfully assumed it meant there would be no more back room deals, special interest favors, bribes or kickbacks.  Well, apparently what the audacious and arrogant candidate meant was he would be […]

Busy bodies live to run other people’s lives. They live to pretend their nitpicking nags about how we do things makes them somehow related to those things we accomplish. The talking head journalist is the epitome of ‘the watcher’ versus ‘the doer’.  These people regurgitate to others the successes or achievements of others, most times […]

Liberals, progressives, fantasy peddlers … whatever you want to call today’s DC Democrats the ‘socialist’ meme is beginning to stick and stick hard. Socialists, as their name implies, love to tell everyone else how to live their lives. The left forgot America is not progressive or liberal by nature, and so when the DC Democrats […]

Update: A CBS poll shows the same pending disaster. Jim Geraghty also notes what I see, which is an across the board dip for all Dems. Those used to 70% wins face a 10% drop off. Those used to 58% wins could lose. – end update The House is all but gone to the Democrats […]

Jeff brings to the debate an understanding of the general physics behind energy use, that is important in understanding why liberal fantasies […]

Peggy Noonan is on a tear today. This is the must read article of the summer, especially this line: When Rep. Brian Baird went before his constituents in Clark County, Wash., on Aug. 18, he was met by this speech from a young man in the audience: “I heard you say that you are going […]

Some disturbing but necessary reading out there. If CA leads the country, we are heading for hell. First, the rich are now falling on hard economic times as well, and dumping their mansions in droves: The housing bust that began among the working class in remote subdivisions and quickly progressed to the suburban middle class […]

What happens when the majority of the country is rooting against you? This is a very interesting summer, but I get the feeling the country is rooting against the Democrats and their mindless policy fantasies. Take Obama’s latest failure in the courts to ban oil drilling and jack up the cost of energy (what any […]

Last week I predicted there would be a special election in the fall for the late Robert Byrd’s seat and it would make a GOP take over of the Senate all but certain. I predicted this because if there wasn’t there would be no more Democrat party in West-By-Golly Virginia. Looks like my prediction is […]
