Pigs Fly to Frozen-Over Hell [Dan Collins]

Extra! Extra! Read all about it! NYT reports Democrat vote fraud:  Black voters are heavily represented in the 94th Election District in Harlem’s 70th Assembly District. Yet according to the unofficial results from the New York Democratic primary last week, not a single vote in the district was cast for Senator Barack Obama. That anomaly was not unique.

Dems 2008: Is the Clinton machine still defective? [Karl]

E.J. Dionne, Jr. — of all people — traces the ills of Sen. Hillary’s Clinton’s supposedly “inevitable” candidacy to bad organization: The major flaw in the early story line is that there never was a Clinton machine in the sense of a well-populated organization skilled at turning out votes.

The Mugniyahnce of the Press [Dan Collins]

Thomas Joscelyn at The Weekly Standard: The assassination of Mugniyah has been widely reported in the press. Most accounts have gotten the details of his early career right. They have noted Mugniyah’s role in some of the first Islamist terrorist attacks against the United States, including the bombings of the U.S. embassy and U.S. Marine barracks in Beirut in 1983 and a series of hijackings and kidnappings throughout the 1980s
