Obama, Virginia, and the Legacy of John Adams

Obama has completed a sweep of this weekend’s primaries and looks good to win the “Potomac Primary” on Tuesday given the demographics of the region, not to mention the latest Mason-Dixon poll (polling close to the actual Mason-Dixon line).
I like Andrew Sullivan’s synopsis of the Obama and McCain campaigns but […]

Giuliani Continues To Delude Self, Will Endorse McCain at Reagan Library

Rudy Giuliani continues on his cycle of self-delusion as he prepares to endorse John McCain at the Reagan Library, no doubt in front of the nation with the help of CNN, FOX News, and MSNBC News. Oh! The symbolism! The elegance of such a gesture! Who better to endorse Bush super-panderer […]

Republicans Hate John McCain….Not!

Why do I keep watching MSNBC? Am I self-destructive? Is my Id in control of my Superego? But really, that’s a question for another day. Today’s question is…why don’t Pat Buchanan, Rush Limbaugh, Hugh Hewitt, and the rest of the rabid right just shut up about how much they dislike John […]

Okay, A Close Race Between Clinton and Obama Is Also Good for The Nevada Caucus

I think a close finish in New Hampshire is excellent news for the Nevada caucus, even better than an Obama win because Clinton will most likely keep campaigning in Nevada. No doubt Obama will claim a win even if he gets second place because he’s the candidate of change, and second place is a […]

The official count from Dixville Notch (hat tip to You Decide […]

Nevada vs. New Hampshire: Clearly We Have More In Common Than We Thought

You’ll be proud to know that Nevada and New Hampshire are tied for the highest rate of alcohol consumption per capita in the U.S. How’s that—50% of the official Democratic primary states are full of drunks.
Turkey and Mexico are the only regions that average a lower level of alcohol consumption per capita than Utah. […]

Nevada: Vote The Caucus, Not The Candidate

I’ve already discussed my strategy for making Nevada’s caucus on January 19th the caucus not to be missed again in my previous post “A Modest Proposal to Elevate The Nevada Caucus,” but a recent editorial in the Reno Gazette-Journal convinced me that it was time to make another pitch.
Let’s be honest, except for the […]
