Ken Cuccinelli Wins Virginia Debate

Speaking ex-officio in my role as The Decider, I declare Republican Ken Cuccinelli the winner of tonight’s gubernatorial debate in Fairfax. The main reason, of course, is that Cuccinelli is totally awesome, but there’s also the important fact that Terry McAuliffe sucks: McAuliffe has proposed all kinds of new spending, but can’t say how he […]

All ‘Bulls Hit’ VA Democrat Candidate

by Smitty Virginians weren’t supposed to glom onto the fact that Terry McAuliffe is a Tommy Boy candidate, hold the redemptive climax, until after the election: Could it be that Barack Obama has brought an end to the era of the political no-talent rodeo clown? McAuliffe seems to be giving the bulls a workout based […]

Democrat Drano-Snorting Continues

by Smitty Fresh from either his triumphal partnership with–or, if you prefer, basketball-esque dribbling at the hands of–Vladimir Putin on the Syria red line topic, #OccupyResoluteDesk has re-discovered his swagger: I’m happy to have a conversation with him about how we can deal with this so-called sequester, making across-the-board cuts on things that we shouldn’t […]

That Psycho-style Imagery In The Anti-Cuccinelli Ad Was Surely A Tribute To Anthony Perkins, Not An Attack

by Smitty Oh, those humorless Republicans. Up in arms, as usual: In his letter to the [Virginia] Board of Elections, Mr. Webster also raised questions about the propriety of the McAuliffe Campaign not being required to endorse publicly the mud slinging “attack ads” against Mr. McAuliffe’s Republican opponent being aired by the Democratic Party of […]

Medicare Expansion Set To Dilate A Budget Near You

by Smitty I had already planned to take a long weekend when I heard about Americans for Prosperity’s Hands Off My Healthcare rally in Richmond. It was a drizzly affair, with roughly 500 in attendance from all over the state. Speakers included Delegate Steve Landes, who dared to ask questions like “Aren’t we already broke?” […]
