Have You Called 202-675-6000 Yet?

DOVER, Delaware — Checkout time is noon at the Fairfield Inn here — headquarters for the Christine O’Donnell campaign — and the lobby is fully of campaign staffers, reporters, producers, etc. Christine’s dad just bummed a smoke from me.

Christine O’Donnell Victory Interview

DOVER, Delaware — It was after 11 a.m. when I finally got my turn to interview the Republican Cinderella: Unlike in our previous interview, she wouldn’t don the fedora — “No funny hats,” her advisers said — but maybe she’ll agree when we cover her inauguration. (Joe Biden would do the swearing-in.) Meanwhile, do like she […]

Never mind the absurdity of that last one. The ill-informed reader’s assertion […]

‘Destructive’! ‘Capricious’! ‘Irresponsible!’

No, Charles Krauthammer was not talking about Meghan McCain’s Dirty Sexy Politics: Thanks to The Right Scoop for the video. Note that Krauthammer states as a fact that Christine O’Donnell will lose the general election. But why, then, did Krauthammer support John McCain, who lost so disastrously in 2008?

What’s Up With Bob Etheridge and Cows?

For the record, no one has suggested — not even so much as hinted — that Rep. Bob Etheridge (D-N.C.) has a relationship with his cattle that some might call “unnatural.” But when a congressman leaves a meeting with his constituents because he wants to spend “quality time” with his cows . . . well, […]

Why Christine O’Donnell Is Surging: Three Ads From Tea Party Express

O’Donnell’s unexpected last-minute surge in the Delaware GOP Senate primary has caught some people flat-footed. How did this happen? It’s simple: For the first time, RINO Mike Castle is being called to account for his record with a series of hard-hitting ads (two on TV and one on radio) from the Tea Party Express: Let’s […]
