The Other McCain

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

For Massachusetts, Journalism Reinforcement Arrives

That was Stacy’s FMJRA title. I had suggested something noticeably more pretentious: “From Massachusetts, Journalism Re-emerges, Agamemnon-esque”. Then again, I registered “The McCain Mutiny” as a title for the blog, just in case we couldn’t spring TheOtherMcCain from PuffDaddy.com in time for our rollout a fortnight and a lifetime

Valley of the Shadow

My friend JSF at Valley of the Shadow blog hosted me during my recent California expedition, and now he’s having a tip-jar fundraising drive. If you’ve hit my tip jar, you really ought to do something for my friend. UPDATE: If NBC can pay Conan O’Brien $30 million to leave the “Tonight Show,” the least […]

Some Things You Really
Have to See to Believe

Yes, believe it or not, an SEIU member supporting Scott Brown — read her story at The American Spectator. Here’s another photo of the Brown supporters who turned up outside the Martha Coakley event at Worcester Polytechnic Institute tonight: Will update shortly with videos from tonight’s speech by Bill Clinton, but I just had to […]

I have an iPod shuffle. I love Jimmie. But can I really drop the Motörhead for Jimmie? This is a serious dilemma. […]

Happy Blog Birthday!

Unlike Tila Tequila, Cynthia is a real lesbian — which is to say, the kind who finds me irresistible. IYKWIMAITYD.

Philip Klein: An Elitist RINO Who
Doesn’t Understand Sarah Palin’s
Appeal to Real Americans

Just thought I’d be first in line to make that accusation against my American Spectator colleague, who reacts to news of Palin’s Fox News deal with several predictions including: Any conservative commentators who disagree with anything Palin says on Fox will be branded elitist RINOs who don’t understand her appeal to real Americans. Hot Air’s […]
