A new ad is just waiting in the wings if Senator Obama is the nominee of the Democrats. In 1988, cultural issues came into their own. They defeated Governor Mike Dukakis.

How else can one explain it? Hillary was outspent three to one, out organized and asked to step aside by many insiders, yet she emerged victorious by DOUBLE DIGITS in the sixth most populous state.

While we are in the mood for asking prominent figures to apologize for their associations, how about asking our Congressional delegation and Presidential Candidates to apologize for giving our tax money to this group founded by a social Darwinist.

Gov. Sarah Palin cut Alaska’s requested eamarks in the federal budget down from 550M to under 200M and from 54 to 31 projects. How many governors are saying they want less federal money?

Obama knows best, the following is Obama’s view of small town voters: “And it’s not surprising then they get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren’t like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations,” he said.

I’ve always been a believer in the following phrase “Meet the children and you know the parents” NY Times: “Mr. McCain, now the presumptive Republican nominee, has staked his candidacy on the promise that American troops can bring stability to Iraq.

Senator Obama is a very intelligent man so how does he justify adding costs to domestic oil consumption by forcing 150 billion dollars of their money to be invested in his chosen energy programs (not drilling or building new refineries that we desperately need )and robbing them of profits as a means to control gas [...]

Tom “Flash” Gordon brutalized the Phillies in the first game (5ER in 1/3 inning…) Tom “Stash” Gordon brutalized a perceived media event in his first campaign kickoff into a double-secret-probation announcement. WDEL’s Chris Carl posted a blog on this. Seriously, Mr. Coons, with all this hoopla Gordo’s strategically generating, I think you may be in [...]
