Barney Frank’s Self-Created Problem

BOSTON — Scapegoating other people for your problems is a psychological defense mechanism that allows the narcissist to resolve his cognitive dissonance, to wit: “I think I’m wonderful, but not everyone seems to share this perception and I need to distract them (and myself) from evidence that I’m not as wonderful as I’d like everyone to […]

They Told You If You Voted for John McCain, Anti-Semites Would Attack . . .

. . . and they were right! Last week, somebody defaced some of Republican state Senate candidate Roger Katz’s campaign signs in Augusta with anti-Semitic slurs. The wording of the messages indicated the graffiti was probably not the work of kids, since it mirrored phrases favored by neo-Nazi hate groups (including the acronym “ZOG,” which […]

‘We’ve Got Grijalva Scared to Death’

This video was recorded nine days ago, when everybody’s favorite rocket scientist, Ruth McClung, was just beginning her surge in Arizona’s 7th District: If Grijalva was scared to death before, he’s positively mortified since Sarah Palin endorsed Ruth yesterday.

NY-25: Ann Marie Buerkle

Several friends have been urging me to support the Republican challenger in New York’s 25th District. She’s awesome: The 25th District around Syracuse has sent Republicans to Congress since the 1970s. In 2008, eight-term Republican Rep. Jim Walsh retired and, in that year’s Obama-led surge, Democrat Dan Maffei got elected. Now the latest poll shows the […]

VIDEO: Barney Frank ‘Debates’ Bielat

BOSTON — Here are two segments from last night’s 4th District debate on New England Cable News. First, on Social Security: Next on economic policy: Now, there are a couple of things we need to point out here: First, the host Jim Braude is about as neutral and objective as John Kerry.

Where He’s Building Ace a Robot: Inside Sean Bielat’s Campaign Headquarters
