McCain Calls on Supporters to Oppose Stimulus

Two can play at this game!
President Obama garnered headlines Friday, when he used his massive email list from the campaign to promote his legislative agenda for the first time, in support of the stimulus package working its way through Congress.
Not to be outdone, Obama’s former rival, Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) today put his considerably smaller [...]


Better Know a District

Speaking of House seats … the math geek readers of Swing State Project have released their latest round of data on congressional districts, calculating the respective vote tallies for President Barack Obama and Sen. John McCain in almost every district in California, Ohio, Texas, and Pennsylvania. An analysis of which districts voted for George W. [...]


Former McCain Blogger Guru Helping Out Michael Steele

I noticed that Patrick Hynes, a Republican consultant who previously worked as the liaison to bloggers for Sen. John McCain’s presidential campaign, was sending out e-mails with good news (or “in case you missed it” minor news) about Michael Steele, candidate for Republican National Committee chairman.
“I am helping him,” Hynes confirmed to me. “He is [...]


I Wish My Brother George Was Here

Sen. George Voinovich, the two-term Republican from Ohio, announces his retirement. Michelle Malkin proclaims victory.
When I think of George Voinovich, I think of his inane blubbering about the shamnesty debacle. Blubber, blubber.


There’s No Crying in Baseball

I hadn’t watched John Ziegler’s interview with Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin about the mean mainstream media because one of the fringe benefits of the Obama-Biden victory was the right to not listen to Sarah Palin. Watching it now, though, is jarring.
The through-line of the Palin iconography that materialized on the campaign trail like some kind [...]


Sister Christian, Oh, Your Time Has Come

Via Wonkette, which is going to war against a PUMA (the “Party Unity My Ass” anti-Obama “Democrats”) blog, I see that Harriet Christian wants to be appointed to Hillary Rodham Clinton’s Senate seat in New York. More to the point, she wants to bash Caroline Kennedy. Hey, who doesn’t these days?
I am definitely closer, I [...]


That’s What I Call Reporting!

Michelle Malkin, taking umbrage at Matthew Yglesias’s assertion that there aren’t many conservative bloggers with reporting skills (”Bullcrap.”), suggests the work of Bay Area-based Zombie.
Internet journalist/blogger and Little Green Footballs regular Zombie (not “conservative” per se, but rather anti-sharia/anti-jihad/anti-anti-American/anti-extremist Left) did extraordinary work digging up documents related to Barack Obama and left-wing terrorist Bill [...]


Green Vote Drives Obama’s Energy Agenda

President-elect Barack Obama is emphasizing green investment. Though he wasn’t the only candidate talking green during the campaign, he was the chief beneficiary of the “environmental” vote.


Dean to Bloggers: ‘The Next State on My List is Texas’

Not-for-much-longer DNC Chairman Howard Dean just held a conference call with America’s bloggers — or, as Gov. Sarah Palin would have it, “kids in pajamas sitting in the basement of their parents’ homes.” Over the rumble of the washing machine, I asked him about the successes and failures of his famous 50-state strategy, credited with [...]


Obama, McCain Vow ‘New Era of Reform’

Following their high-profile meeting today in Chicago, President-elect Barack Obama and his former rival, Sen. John McCain, issued this statement:
