Evangelical Ball and Chain
I must admit that I enjoyed watching the GOP self-destruct during the last few months...even if I focus my disdain on specific factions of the party. But I can't help but put myself in the position of a Republican strategist and attempt to answer the question ''What should the party do now?'' To this I would say one thing: ditch the evangelicals. ...

Re: Again - Not ONE SINGLE reason why he voted for Barack Obama

A classic election
I think that among all the outcry on this ''historic'' election (and I accept that in some aspects it was indeed historic) we tend to forget that in terms of electoral politics, it was just a textbook one.

wither the gop
i read through this article and can only remember mr carlson on morning joe doing that smiling outrage thing of his, whilst complaining of what he considered to be the 'over the top' nyt headline (and others) for 11/5. he punctuated his rather weird argument with several giddy outbursts of of 'hey, i want obama to succeed, i really do.'
