Those Who Don’t Read Peter Ingemi …

. . . are doomed to repeat history: Seeing a potential story I took the 90 minute drive to Concord NH and sure enough there was a fair amount of National media there waiting to see what would happen when tea party clashed with tea party. There was no shortage of tea party members who […]

The Right Scoop has full video of Sarah Palin’s speech today in Manchester, N.H., and if nothing else, Palin is driving political reporters nuts.

New Hampshire, Here I Come!

The AmTrak ticket from Union Station in D.C. to Worcester, Mass., was $182. My son-in-law is coming to pick me up in a few minutes to take me to the station. Pete Da Tech Guy will pick me up Saturday afternoon in Worcester. Pete and I will cover Mitt Romney’s Sunday appearance at a Tea […]

Ron Paul vs. Tea Party Express?

Eric Odom wonders why “Doctor No” doesn’t join the tour: During the past few months Ron Paul’s fans/supporters have gone out of their way to promote his candidacy at every corner of the web.
