A new Quinnipiac poll out today shows that repeal of the anti-union SB5 in Ohio has very nice support from the voters: Ohio voters support 57 – 32 percent the repeal of SB 5, the centerpiece of Gov. John Kasich’s legislative program, as the margin against the governor’s measure has almost doubled in the last […]
TPM has some excerpts from Pat Buchanan’s new book. This one really got me: Perhaps some of us misremember the past. But the racial, religious, cultural, social, political, and economic divides today seem greater than they seemed even in the segregation cities some of us grew up in.

The WSJ has launched a pity-party today for the suffering 1% of this country: Jacqueline Siegel paces the floor of her unfinished 7,200-square-foot ballroom. The former beauty queen, with platinum-blond hair, blue eye shadow and a white minidress, clacks along the plywood construction boards in her high heels trailed by a small entourage of helpers […]

I am stealing this from Bob Cesca because I have never read more truer words. Andrew Sullivan: To rid the world of Osama bin Laden, Anwar al-Awlaki and Moammar Qaddafi within six months: if Obama were a Republican, he’d be on Mount Rushmore by now.

Herman Cain is coming under serious fire; so serious it could destroy his chances at winning the nomination: The first signs of real damage to Herman Cain’s campaign emerged Thursday as his position on abortion — that he is personally anti-abortion but believes it’s “not the government’s role … to make that decision” — began […]
