Tea Party Alert: Harry Reid Will Launch Three-Day Nevada Bus Tour Monday

A friend in Nevada just called to alert me to this news: On Monday, the politically vulnerable Democratic majority leader of the Senate plans to hit the road from his hometown of Searchlight for a three-day bus tour . . . “This bus tour is a great opportunity for me to visit and hear from […]

MoveOn.org vs. ‘Blue Dog’ Barrow

This story could have major ramifications in Georgia and beyond: Left-wing rage over Georgia Rep. John Barrow’s vote against ObamaCare has reportedly prompted the powerful MoveOn.org political action committee to target him for defeat in this year’s Democratic primary. Barrow was among those “Blue Dog” Democrats slammed last summer by MoveOn.org radio ads . . […]

This afternoon I opened my e-mail inbox and saw (a) a message from Conor Friedersdorf and (b) a message from a minister at the Georgia church attended by Carol Purdy, my third-grade crush.  Obviously, I chose to read the latter, which said: Met Liz Carter again today — her campaign for GA-4 now has national recognition thanks to […]
