Get a Grip (CraigC)

Michelle has a post up in which she asks her readers what they will do if it’s McCain vs. the Hildabeast, and the results are pretty depressing.  This is a fairly representative sample: If McCain becomes the republican nominee, Rush will be proven right. The “republican” persuasion will cease to exist. It might as well merge with the democrats to become its true self. Good riddance. Staunch conservatives for life, my

James Bond Babes [Dan Collins]

I’m finding the primaries depressing at the moment, so I thought I’d try to change the subject a little. Best and Worst

GOP 2008: Mitt Romney’s rocky road to Super-Duper Tuesday [Karl]

Looking ahead to Super-Duper Tuesday, the polls from many of the big states favored Sen. John McCain even before Florida voted; Rudy Giuliani’s anticipated withdrawal from the race and endorsement of McCain will only magnify that trend.  Of the states not represented at the prior link, Mitt Romney had a 19 point lead over McCain in Colorado, home of Jeff Goldstein and 66 delegates.  And it is a fair bet that Romney

When “Stick It” Just Isn’t Enough [Dan Collins]

In response to CraigC’s post about the illegals whose vehicle smacked a border patrol vehicle in the back, a visiting moonbat spouts off: Comment by Donah on 1/30 @ 6:27 am # Who really cares about ilegals? Who´s job are they taking away?? Not mine… I hold 3 masters.. All they do is fill those jobs like working in the field.. no self-appraising American -black included- wants to take… so

GOP 2008: Can you guess what this election is about? [Karl]

At RCP, Jay Cost does his typically excellent job in analyzing Sen. John McCain’s win in the Florida primary, which was based on the same general coalition he has had in New Hampshire and South Carolina.   Curiously, Cost misses the larger implication of that analysis. Cost notes that McCain once again won those who are disenchanted by the Bush presidency, despite campaigning in no small part on the “surge,” which Cost calls “the hallmark of

Judea Pearl on His Son Danny’s Death [Dan Collins]

It was through Danny’s face that people came to grasp the depth of cruelty and inhumanity into which this planet of ours has been allowed to sink in the past two decades. His murder proved that 9/11 was not an isolated event, and helped resurrect the age-old ideas of right and wrong, good and evil. Moral relativism died with Daniel Pearl in January 2002. If only.

Dems 2008: Obama is making a run at Hillary’s Hispanic firewall [Karl]

At the Politico, Ben Smith has Sen. Barack Obama’s new Spanish-language ad for California and Arizona, which features Hispanic-friendly Sen. Ted Kennedy, Rep. Luis Gutierrez and a steaming helping of victimology.  Obama may be trying to convert Hispanic voters who have so far favored Sen. Hillary Clinton, or — recognizing that the Hispanic vote is sometimes undependable – Obama may be seeking to depress Hispanic turnout relative to black turnout. (h/t Memeorandum.)

Sometimes, Life Is Just Good (CraigC)

Haaaaaa 

Let’s All Get On the Bandwagon (CraigC)

I have seen the future, and it’s Meghan  John McCain.  I call on all good Republicans to join this hottie, er patriot in her, I mean his run to the White House.  I can think of no greater honor than getting behind this great American family, and I mean really getting behind her them.  Let’s all pull together for a great cause and send a McCain to Washington.

GOP 2008: How Rudy Can Win [Karl]

MayBee writes: Karl!!!!!! I need you to tell me how Rudy can win. At the moment, my advice would be for him to take the Patriots, though the Giants plus the points cannot be ruled out.
