‘Lisa the Loser’? No, Murkowski Wants to Be Known as ‘Lisa the Laughingstock’

The great thing about a write-in campaign is, Alaska’s voters will get to supply the punchline. Murkowski is not merely out of touch with the voters; she obviously has begun to lose touch with reality. Begging your K Street lobbyist pals to help you out? Yeah. That’s gonna be real popular with folks in Alaska, I bet.  […]

Democrat Congresswoman’s Staff Uses Nazi Campaign Smear in Illinois

Democratic campaign operatives working for Rep. Debbie Halvorson (D-Illinois, 11th District) staged a protest against the free-market group Americans for Prosperity, carrying signs that depicted Sarah Palin, Glenn Beck and Halvorson’s Republican opponent with Hitler mustaches.

‘Well, How Things Have Changed’

Her speech today at the Values Voters Summit: “I want to start by asking you to think back for a moment to about a year and a half ago . . . Remember the despondency, the anxiety, even a palpable fear for the future of our country. . . . Do you remember it? I […]

Townhall VP Garthwaite: Alan Moore’s Statements Slagging Christine O’Donnell ‘Unfortunate and Unauthorized’

After former Christine O’Donnell campaign staffer Alan Moore disparaged his ex-boss in an article at Politico, I called attention to the fact that Moore is employed by Salem Communications, which owns the conservative Web sites Townhall.com and HotAir.com.

Dear God, Please, No!

Lisa Murkowski is as consumed with pathological narcissism as her worst enemies said? She’s listening to demented Palin-haters like Andrew Halcro and John Bitney? Ace is mocking the rumor/not-a-rumor, but trying to run as a write-in when your name is “Murkowski” is an epic case of mind-boggling stupid: U.S. Sen. Lisa Murkowski has decided to run as a write-in […]

I’d Like to Dedicate This Song . . .

. . . to Kristin Murray, Alan Moore and David Keegan: What can I do To get on the right track? Wish they’d take some of these Knives out of my back. Let me say a few word about The Backstabbers — not just those faithless former servants who are now disparaging Christine O’Donnell, but […]

He Was a Fratboy . . .

. . . and I still remember his name, but that’s not the point. See, it was first day of class in summer semester during my sophomore year in college, and I’d noticed this cute new blonde freshman out in the smoking area before our political science class.

O’DONNELLPHOBIA! Media Discovers Dreaded Gay-Hating Extremist Theocrat Is Related to People Who . . . Uh, Aren’t

In the famous words of the most successful politician in Delaware history: Big f***ing deal. Christine has a lesbian sister named Jennie, whom I’m pretty sure I met Wednesday while I was filing from the lobby of the Fairfield Inn in Dover. I also met Christine’s father, her mother, her brother-in-law, etc. True confession time: Two of my […]
