A Net-Based Sarah Palin Write-In?

by Smitty Muir at Day by Day is provocative, but I find the idea fraught with peril. Just as Congress doesn’t call a vote without a fairly deterministic outcome, the likelihood of a Sarah Palin write-in going pear shaped and resulting in Obama II: What Haven’t I Fracked Yet? is far too high for comfort. In […]

Sullivan’s Gut Is Also Confused

by Smitty Sullivan’s Daily Ditch isn’t of much interest, but one must correct a mis-perception here: The big surprise for me in this is Ron Paul’s remarkable strength in South Carolina. My gut tells me it’s driven by military types, who share the view of many active duty soldiers that the wars in Iraq and […]

Founder of the Axis of Fedora

Pete Da Tech Guy is having a post-New Hampshire primary fundraiser. I’ve already contributed — Pete generously acted as my chauffeur during part of the New Hampshire trip, in addition to all his excellent blogging — and I therefore urge all my readers to do likewise. Whether it’s $10, $20 or $50, please HIT DA […]

“Driving That Bain / High On Rogaine
/ Timmy Kaine You’d Better
/ Watch Your Speed”

by Smitty Virginia Right points to Open Secrets, where, nestled cosily amongst the usual suspects for a Democrat, we see Bain Capital supporting former governor Timmy Kaine in his bid to replace Jim “Browser” Webb in the Senate. “Just how Conservative is Mitt Romney?” asks Virginia Right. The CPAC propaganda arrived today, and I see […]

Philly Layover Musings: The Republican Party Is Depraved and Decadent

It starts with a candidate (John McCain/Mitt Romney) who […]

Is Torie Bosch Really An Idiot?

by Smitty Torie Bosch has deliberately, diabolically misconstrued Chris Christie, and Ann Althouse, unexpectedly, seems to want to take Bosch seriously, leading to much cognitive dissonance: But it’s not enough here to say Bosch is an idiot or that Bosch’s idiocy exemplifies the pathetic present-day feminist web-writers and impugns the entire enterprise of feminism — […]

Dammit, Smitty! How Many Times Must I Tell You, ‘No Quarter to Feminists’?

HOLLIS, N.H. The sun is shining this morning in New Hampshire, but the shadows of gloom still threaten to swallow my soul. First, I couldn’t get a “Roll Tide” from Rick Santorum and now . . . Et tu, Smitty? “Roxeanne gets me thinking with this one,” indeed! The redheaded temptress has evidently beguiled and confused […]

Fun Gerbils

by Smitty Roxanne gets me thinking with this one: Now, I suspect that the retort is “That’s not what I meant by fungible,” but that leads us to the question: in what way are men fungible with each other but not with women? Can we really not take a male scientist and replace him with […]
