Howard Dean, M.D. is in a strong position to become the next DNC Chairman. It is much stronger than he ever was as a Presidential candidate when glowing media coverage and a powerful internet presence resulted in few wins in Democratic primaries and caucuses. Unlike last year, endorsements for Dean are also votes for the [...]
If purple ink is good enough to prevent some fraud in Iraq’s election why not in Wisconsin elections. It’s looks goofier than those “I Voted” stickers, wouldn’t stop people trucked in from out-of-state or felons who can’t vote, and wouldn’t prevent incompetant poll workers from improperly registering voters, but it would stop multiple voting.
“Just an [...]
Not much comment from any big name webloggers on Judge Green’s ruling. That doesn’t mean there isn’t any interesting commentary. Here’s Rand Holman’s take:
And the very people she is seeking to protect are not Americans, they were not captured on American soil, and they are suspected terrorists, or have fired upon US Troops in an [...]
James Joyner’s Outside the Beltway is two years old, and Michele Catalano’s A Small Victory is four years old. I toast you both and hope you don’t stop anytime soon.

WisOpinion.com’s latest Political Stock Report is up. Kevin notes Wisconsin webloggers are missing. Could Milwaukee’s voting problems have been as big a story if talk radio were only only ones harping on it? Maybe. But we do know the BBA helped take the story national. Should we be surprised that a website devoted to Wisconsin [...]
Todd Zywicki enjoyed the abridged audio version of Edmund Morris’ dissapointing biography of Ronald Reagan.
First, it cuts out all of Edmund Morris’s narcissistic ruminations on himself. Seriously, what was Morris thinking about? I supposed he was trying to make some sort of point about how any biography reflects the life experience and perspective of the [...]
If some federal judges have their way the U.S. won’t be able to hold any terrorists.
A federal judge ruled Monday that foreign terror suspects held in Cuba can challenge their confinement in U.S. courts and she criticized the Bush administration for holding hundreds of people without legal rights.
Judge Joyce Hens Green, handling claims filed [...]
This is my occasional reminder that TAM will be covering CPAC 2005. TAM is a labor of love, a hobby, and not a money-making operation. Because of that I’m asking for your help in defraying some of my expenses.

Maybe Sen. John Thune was a little too plugged into weblogs. He had two on his campaign payroll.

My expectation for Iraq’s elections were that great numbers would vote, but hundreds would die in terrorist attacks. Based on how things turned out I’m pleasantly surprised. Many, especially Shites, took part. I’m saddened that there was low turnout in some Sunni-dominated areas. We’re only near the end of the beginning, but I’m cautiously opptimistic.

Power Line’s Deacon writes about how various groups must “keep the faith” for there to be a free Iraq. His look at democracy as a process dovetails well with this earlier post.

Greg Borowski, my favorite Journal Sentinel reporter right now, offers up an article letting us know where things stand in the Milwaukee voter scandal. He makes an important point about any criminal investigation:
Indeed, the same open system that makes it easy to vote on election day, long a point of pride for the state, makes [...]
All the happiness and joy in these pictures reminds me to remind you that today’s elections in Iraq are only a means to an end. I’m not one of those types who sees democracy as the end state. The end state is a free Iraq. A free Iraq is one where property rights and civil [...]
History is being made as I write these words. Voting has begun in Iraq. That’s great news for Iraqis and Americans. For Iraqis it’s another step on the road to liberty. For Americans it’s one step closer to getting our soldiers home and making the world safer from Islamist terrorism.
I just want to point out [...]
“Krafty” is the first single from the upcoming New Order album Waiting For the Siren’s Call. This will have to do until the album comes out in April for us in North America.
