Basic Rule of Politics: Never Lose a Friend By Trying to Placate Your Enemies

When it comes to a fight, the only true measure of a friend is, “Will they fight?” Befriending cowardly punks is a waste of time. Say what you will about Pamela Geller, she has never backed away from a fight. Two weeks ago, the New York Times did a hit piece on Geller that I ignored [...]

The WaPo Looks Really Bad Over Christine O’Donnell

WaPo, As a subscriber, one hopes that the correct people are held accountable for this debacle: http://patterico.com/2010/10/20/wapoap-caught-revising-the-o%E2%80%99donnell-story-without-issuing-a-correction/ Suggestion: man up, do the correct thing, and give Christine O’Donnell a proper interview, post-haste.

Unnamed Senior Dems Admit Delaware Senate Race Will Be Close

by Smitty Some more insight into why Obama Went Down To Delaware, courtesy of HillBuzz, emphasis mine: Somehow, I turned the topic. . .to Christine O’Donnell’s Senate race in Delaware because the guy I was talking to did a lot of fundraising in New England during the 2008 campaign and I know he “gets” states [...]

Just Watched Christine O’Donnell And That Other Dude Debate

by Smitty Update II: Let us pray that enlightenment, or a ludicrous amount of pressure, finds Mike Castle. No one can make the old duffer do the graceful thing here: he has every right to be a cantankerous, Ruling Class putz and fail to support the American cause. I support and defend his constitutional right [...]

Obama Went Down To Delaware

by Smitty Obama going to Delaware on Friday? Via AmericanGlob, Rush says it’s all panic.

A: Ludicrous Attacks From The Left

by Smitty Q: What Do Christine O’Donnell And Pamela Geller Have In Common? Via Salon, Kristen Wiig’s faux campaign ad from SNL this weekend: I’m not sure, but the fact that SNL spent precious airtime on this could mean: They’re reaching out to conservative viewers.

When Will Christine O’Donnell TV Ads Hammer ‘Baldy the Tax-Hiking Wanker’?

Woke up this morning to discover that last night’s post about Christine O’Donnell’s new ad was the top item at Memeorandum, with links by Da Tech Guy, Left Coast Rebel, Gateway Pundit and, of course, not Allahpundit. Yet I will quote He Who Linketh Not: Not a syllable is breathed here about policy, party affiliation, or conservatism; it’s [...]

What Did I Tell You About Her?

Christine O’Donnell’s first TV ad of the general election campaign: The American Spectator, July 27: “[C]onservatives in Delaware have the benefit of backing an indisputably telegenic candidate. O’Donnell . . . has the kind of 100-watt smile that lights up a room.” With a smile like that, she’s awfully hard to hate. The Castle campaign [...]

Franken for Wankin’

Christine O’Donnell’s anti-masturbation message is clearly a threat to Al Franken’s lifestyle choice: Sen.

Hey, hit the tip jar if you want me to go cover [...]
