Following my previous post, where a Tea Party rally, expected to draw around 2,000 people only drew 30 after Donald Trump cancelled, we now have another case where Trump’s cancellation is causing the GOP some problems: Donald Trump on Thursday backed out of a June speaking engagement at one of the Iowa Republican Party’s premier […]
With Sean Hannity being forced by Fox top brass to cancel the live airing of his show from the Cincinnati Tea Party yesterday, we are given a new look into the Tea Party. I touched on it last night, but decided it really deserves it’s own space on the blog. When it was announced to […]
Michael Steele took to the airwaves today to try and fix his highly tarnished record. That of course didn’t work out too well as Steele tried to pull out the race card, something he said he never does just a few short months ago. As if that isn’t bad, now we have the news that […]

That […]
This is a sign of how bad things are in the GOP Under pressure from fundraisers and friends, Sen. Mel Martinez has decided not to endorse presidential candidate John McCain, who was planning to campaign Monday in Miami with the popular Florida Republican to help win crucial votes in South Florida’s Hispanic community. A big […]
