The Other McCain

Arizona’s New Motto: The Birther State

Remember last week when John McCain attacked J.D. Hayworth with an ad accusing Hayworth of being a birther? That may actually help Hayworth in the GOP primary, as Paul Craft explains: McCain has vocally opposed the birther movement since his 2008 presidential bid. His renewed criticism of the movement may endear McCain to Arizona moderates […]

Weekend At Bernie’s Wasn’t The First Allusion To Come To Mind For Today’s Circus

by Smitty Glenn McCoy has fun with it: And then there was a related Tim Burton take-off, via Digg. The most shocking bit came from visiting my magic URL, http://www.AllYourNewsAreOnCrack.com for a fortnight into the future, I see an odd article: Unprecedented Move: President Obama Accepts Own Healthcare Bill In Signing Statement by Sissypuss, the […]

Randy Altschuler: ‘Scrap the Current Legislation . . . and Start Listening’

Press release from a New York GOP congressional candidate: “It’s obvious, the dysfunction in Washington continues. In the end, the healthcare issue will only be solved by common sense, free market solutions, like Tort Reform and the dropping of state barriers on the purchase of Health Insurance.

Special Election FL19: Edward Lynch in the First House Campaign of 2010

Of all the candidates making the rounds at CPAC last week, arguably the most important was Edward Lynch, the Republican candidate in Florida’s 19th District. Why?

Campaign manager Simone Ward, media consultant Mandy Grunwald and pollster Fred Yang have joined Mikulski’s effort, […]

J.D. Hayworth vs. John McCain

Thanks to Barbara Espinosa at American Freedom for highlighting this issue-by-issue comparison: TAXES John McCain — Opposed the Bush tax cuts. Voted against repealing the Death Tax. The Club for Growth says McCain’s overall record on taxes “is profoundly disturbing and anti-growth.” J.D. Hayworth — Helped to author the Bush tax cuts and supports repealing […]

Another Reason to Support Rick Barber

As if an endorsement from Pamela Geller wasn’t enough, did you know that Rick’s GOP primary opponent voted for a 500% increase in cigarette taxes? An intense debate over how to spend the money erupted Thursday after the Montgomery City Council voted to raise the cigarette tax from 2 cents to 12 cents a pack. The […]

Pamela Geller Loves a U.S. Marine

Which is just one reason why she endorsed Rick Barber: Rick makes reference to America’s founding as a Christian nation, to “the freedoms given to us by God, our Creator.” Pamela offers to lead “Jews for Barber” and refers to what she wrote about Democrats’ “protect the brand” strategy. Yesterday was Rick’s birthday, and there’s a […]
