The Other McCain

"One should either write ruthlessly what one believes to be the truth, or else shut up." — Arthur Koestler

Dan Riehl Joins The Downfall Parody Club With A Nice Outing

by Smitty This has NSFW potty mouth, but builds to a fine conclusion: Having the viewer substitute a contemporary figure for Adolf alters the game a little bit. The contrast between Mitt’s wax museum facade and Adolf’s apocalyptic meltdown is spectacular here. I prefer casting Hitler as a senior diabolical mastermind, packing plenty of evil, […]

NASHUA, N.H. Massive media mayhem here at the Hillsborough County Republican Party dinner at the Crowne Plaza, where Newt Gingrich was swarmed by the press: Rick Santorum also spoke, but I’ll upload that later.

Couldn’t Agree Less With Podhoretz

by Smitty (via Insty) A point has been completely missed here: Debate Hell provided terrific copy for pundits, led to record ratings for cable-news channels, and helped enshrine Twitter as the news flavor of the moment. But it made the Republican Party look foolish and silly, not serious and sober in facing the problems of […]

Rick Santorum in Windham, N.H.

WINDHAM, N.H. The Southern New Hampshire 9-12 Project is hosting “An Evening With Rick Santorum.” I just interviewed State Sen. James Luther, who endorsed Santorum today.
