Spartanburg Remainders: CBS Debate Inspires Media Fear and Loathing

SPARTANBURG, S.C. We had to leave Wofford College about an hour after last night’s Republican debate ended, because the Herman Cain campaign was having a private post-debate event at the Marriott Hotel. So I didn’t have time to upload many of my photos and video of the “spin room” activity, nor to register much of […]

Greetings From Spartanburg!
REPUBLICAN DEBATE ON CBS
UPDATE: ‘No Runs, No Hits, No Errors’

SPARTANBURG, S.C. UPDATE 9:27 p.m. ET: Just caught Carl Cameron on his way out of the filing center. “What’d ya think?” he asked. “Seemed pretty standard, except for Ron Paul,” I said. “Yeah — no runs, no hits, no errors,” Carl said. “And Perry’s still alive.” That’s a neutral, objective fact — and quite important. […]

On the Road to Spartanville … Oh, Wait, No, Better Make That Spartanburg

DUBLIN, Va. We pulled into a McDonald’s here about 9:40 a.m. so that I could hop on the WiFi and get some work done quickly before gassing up the econo-rental (a black Ford Probe, $86 for the weekend) and heading back out on the road to Spartanburg, S.C., for tonight’s Republican presidential debate at Wofford […]

Patrick Murray Delivers The Best News I’ve Had All Week

by Smitty As hoped, Patrick Murray rides again, in the effort to Retire ‘Gentleman’ Jim Moran. From his 10 November email announcement: Today I’m announcing my candidacy for US Congress in the 8th Congressional District of Virginia. This decision to run for a second time took much soul-searching, thought and prayer. Campaigns are a crucible, […]

Jerry Sandusky Is To Joe Paterno As. . .

by Smitty . . .Eric Holder is to. . . They told me that if I voted for John McCain, executive accountability would be for the little people. So far, they’ve been proven quite correct, no thanks whatsoever to that craven sack of a Senator from Nevada. Just to belabor the point here, this post […]

GOP May Gain Control Of VA Senate. Also, InstaVision Offers A Sarah Palin Tease UPDATE: A Sarah Palin ‘Vacuum’?

by Smitty Jason Kenney at Bearing Drift reports that canvassing is done in Spotsylvania for the 17th Senatorial District, with a 226 vote margin for the GOP hopeful. This is good news, and will hopefully lead to results substantial enough to reach the misguided voters in Ohio. Speaking of misguided, voters in my VA Senatorial […]

This Blog Has Been Critical Of Senator Webb In The Past

by Smitty Via Instapundit, there are indications of Fightin’ Jim Webb coming out swinging against the Obama administration in Politico (our Bible).  Now, as a Virginia resident, the 2006 ‘macaca’ scandal was a major indicator to me of just how decayed American politics had become. After reading Liberal Fascism, it was highly unclear how anybody with […]

Ed Koch Writes Around The Topic Of Corruption With A Neurosurgeon’s Skill

by Smitty One must admit, it’s quite a well done piece by Ed Koch in the Puffington Host to talk about corruption in the U.S. while mentioning no more than Dick Durbin in terms of Democrat corruption. What this country needs is a Congress and a president who will investigate the corruption that Americans feel […]
