Good: Dear Mr. Breitbart, We have spent the past several days trying to make clear to you your limited role as a participant in our digital town hall to be streamed on ABCNews.com and Facebook. The post on your blog last Friday created a widespread impression that you would be analyzing the election on ABC […]
As I mentioned earlier, a major contributing factor to the huge loss Creigh Deeds suffered last night was from the fact that he ended up running against the Democratic agenda. Markos gives some needed warning to the Democrats on what happened last night: Giving Republicans cover by stymying the reform agenda that won Democrats the […]
I got to take a minute and acknowledge someone who helped get my interest in politics some 20 years ago. Wayne Coates has won Hamilton County Recorder after the votes were recounted.

DeLay faces three opponents in […]
