Good News: Democrats Continue Ripping Each Other Apart in Senate Primaries

Last week, I pointed out that Ohio Lt. Gov. Lee Fisher has been forced to spend $1 million to beat back moonbat-endorsed Jennifer Brunner in the Democratic Senate primary.

PA12: ‘That Crazy Blogger Guy’

That’s what Tim Burns called me Friday night at campaign HQ, and here’s some more crazy blogging at the Hot Air Green Room: The Burns campaign can count on lots of votes from what one staffer described as “pissed off” Democrats and independents, but the real key will be the ability of Burns to appeal […]

‘Every Campaign Needs to Have a Sicilian Guy in a Fedora’ — Roxeanne De Luca

Two Words: Freakin’ Huge!

 No, I’m not talking about plus-size model Ashley Graham, I’m talking about Republican Tim Burns leading 46%-40% in the latest PA-12 poll from (brace yourself) Daily Kos: The new Daily Kos/Research 2000 poll of the PA-12 special election gives Republican businessman Tim Burns the edge in the race for the House seat formerly held by the […]

Other PA-12 Blogging From Christopher Renner At Red State

by Smitty Christopher Renner is also on the PA-12 case, posting at Red State and his own digs, including a map of what a train wreck the layout of the PA-12 district has become under the Murtha tenure. Maybe I should walk that back: I don’t live there, and the citizens of PA may think […]

Charlie Cook explains why this May 18 special election is so crucial: With the midterm elections now just six months away, are Democrats’ prospects improving? Not really. For every hopeful sign they get, several others — usually the more telling ones — point the other way. . . . This month could provide important clues […]
