Rep. Duncan Hunter can’t wait until next week’s elections to throw his hat in the ring for President. Political uber-junkies Stuart Rothenberg and Charlie Cook see this as Hunter believing the GOP will lose the House. “It does suggest he figures he’s going to have some time on his hands, that he won’t have to […]
Bravo to the NY Sun editorial board. The point out a big unintended consequence of McCain-Feingold law. It’s harder now for voters to know who to hold accountable for television ads:
With just a week to go until the election, the airwaves are erupting with hard-hitting television ads, and in Tennessee the Democrats are charging that […]
The Wisconsin State Journal editorial board endorsed Jim Doyle for governor. They cite his handling of the state budget, not raising taxes (not to say he didn’t try), and helping state business (I guess they didn’t read this).
The newspaper forgets the instance of the Department of Transportation wasting thousands of dollars on a no-bid contract […]
Milwaukee is the 53rd most-dangerous city in the U.S. Green Bay is the 234th most-dangerous. St. Louis is #1.
Shoes are big sellers on the internet as one Wisconsin company understands well.
The NY Times is finally realizing many people are having problems talking politics in polite company. I clammed up in 2004 because I was tired […]
Charlie Sykes posted this Doyle rap sheet. However, he’s missing the all-important links. We can fix that. I’ve put together a Google document so we can add the links. If a bunch of people document one or two of the scandals the project can get done in a few hours. It would be a nice […]
Here’s a warning for those like me concerned about voter fraud:
A new statewide database of registered voters contains as many as 77,000 dead people on its rolls, and as many as 2,600 of them have cast votes from the grave, according to a Poughkeepsie Journal computer-assisted analysis.
“Dead Voters Continue to Cast Ballots in New York” […]
Things went well at the Halloween party in Madison last night:
Except for two brief disturbances - in which small crowds of hostile attendees briefly chanted and taunted police - Saturday’s Halloween celebration, known this year as “Freakfest on State Street,” was overwhelmingly tame.
By 2:05 a.m. post-daylight saving time on Sunday, State Street was clear of […]
Fidel Castro was shown on Cuban televison reading the paper and mocking reports of his death:
The 80-year-old Cuban leader, who temporarily ceded power to his brother Raul in July following intestinal surgery, had not been seen since mid-September when photographs of him receiving world leaders at a summit in Havana were released. He was shown […]
New Mexico governor Bill Richardson must have a great constitution. He refuses to use hand sanitizer:
“It’s condescending to the voters,” said Gov. Bill Richardson of New Mexico, a Democrat.
A fervent nonuser of hand sanitizer, Mr. Richardson holds the Guinness Book of World Records mark for shaking the most hands over an eight-hour period (13,392, […]
Kos calls out Sen. Russ Feingold for not helping Ned Lamont’s losing Senate campaign:
Senator Feingold seems to be copying from John Edwards’ paper. He tells people he will show up for Ned anytime, but doesn’t actually do it. Maybe he was an English major. Can you help him with his math?
“CT-Sen: Who Has Helped?” […]
Stick a fork in Sen. Rick Santorum. Your campaign has gone over the deep end when you’re surrounded by pro wrestlers.
Yes, it’s more video, but when I find something this cringe-worthy I can’t resist.

I’m on a video kick today. Only this time I’ll only link to the commerical for the Dixie Chicks’ documentary that was nixed by NBC because it is “disparaging to President Bush.” The network is willing to air Saturday Night Live skits that could easily be described as “disparaging” (and not funny like the opener […]

Virginia U.S. Senate candidate James Webb justifiably felt it wasn’t appropriate to have racy portions of his novels read on the radio:
“I don’t know why you’re reading that on WTOP,” Webb told host Mark Plotkin. “I think it’s a little bit inappropriate.”
Plotkin was reading an excerpt from Webb’s novel “Something to Die For,” in which […]
