This is the problem living in the information super age, where so much is only a click away: Records from a cell phone used by President-elect Obama were improperly breached, apparently by employees of the cell phone company, his transition team said Thursday. Spokesman Robert Gibbs said the team was notified Wednesday by Verizon Wireless […]
Keeping up with my promise to help the blogs on the right build a list of Palin haters they need to avoid in 2012, I have a new name for the list – The Republican Governors Association. Some Republican governors tell CNN they were not particularly happy with the way the Republican Governors Association press […]
Now that the election is over we start getting a bigger look into the inner workings of the McCain campaign: Randy Scheunemann, a senior foreign policy adviser to John McCain, was fired from the Arizona senator’s campaign last week for what one aide called “trashing” the campaign staff, three senior McCain advisers tell CNN. One […]
Treason comes with a price: Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid will likely meet later this week with Joe Lieberman to discuss whether the Democrat-turned-Independent will be stripped of his Senate committee chairmanship, a senior Democratic leadership aide tells CNN. Lieberman currently chairs the Senate’s Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee. This aide says that Reid, […]
Can you believe it’s almost here? It’s been such a long journey, but an historic one at that.

Sarah Palin gives the Obama campaign another gift: Ensuring that news of the Republican National Committee’s sartorial spending spree will remain in the headlines for at least one more news cycle, Sarah Palin on Sunday sounded off on the $150,000 wardrobe that was purchased for her in September, denouncing the report as “ridiculous” and declaring […]
Who won? CBS: Obama 53% McCain 22% CNN: Obama:58% McCain 31% These are polls of undecided voters. McCain needed a game changer tonight and I think he got it. Unfortunately for him it wasn’t in the right direction. He helped make up the minds of more uncommitted and we should expect to see more polls […]
My God could Gwen Ifill have been any more slanted towards Biden? Ok – had to get that little joke out of my system. Despite having one hell of a cold, I managed to watch the whole thing. Honestly, it was exactly what I expected it to be. No massive screw ups from either candidate. […]
I love how all these “big stories” on right wing blogs can be traced back to some “emailer” who writes them. The latest case is this one from Glenn Reynolds: A READER AT A MAJOR NEWSROOM EMAILS: “Off the record, every suspicion you have about MSM being in the tank for O is true. We […]
