Last year, Ken Mehlman was always appearing on different talk shows, but his message was always the same. He would constantly resort to his meme of “the Democrats are not unified”. It was becoming his greatest jab at the minority party. Here we are in 2007 and now the tables are turned. In the House […]
Wonkette: Pro-gun Democrats did better in the midterms than probably any other class of politician, but the National Rifle Association is not in the business of reflecting moderate political reality. The NRA lives off memberships, and the standard card-carrying member has two enemies: Democrats and … deer, most likely. But even loyalists go soft, as […]
In the weeks leading up to last month’s elections, there were tons of stories coming out of possible wrong-doing by mostly GOP candidates. Well now it seems that the FBI is playing catch up with investigations into these claims, and here is another one to add to the mix: A federal investigation is underway after […]
Funny that when Biden says something like this, he gets chastised by the wingnuts. It will of course be different when you got a 2008 GOP Presidential hopeful saying it: Republican presidential hopeful Sam Brownback said Thursday that Iraq must achieve a “political equilibrium” even if means partitioning the country along ethnic lines. “I’m saying, […]

CHEAT! A recently distributed guide for Republican poll watchers in Maryland spells out how to aggressively challenge the credentials of voters and urges these volunteers to tell election judges they could face jail time if a challenge is ignored. Democrats said yesterday they consider the handbook, obtained by The Washington Post, evidence of a Republican […]
The OH-1 race is starting to gain attention as becoming more of a hot ticket item. MSNBC has this to say about it: Ohio-01: No election tapestry would be complete without an Ohio race this cycle. The reason to highlight this fight is because it’s a district that was previously redrawn to make Republican Rep. […]
Bush’s biggest problem is he lives in the past. He doesn’t realize this great new thing out there called the “internets” and exactly how powerful it is. Take for example when Bush tries to change his story and then lie about what he previously said: Oops. Well I am sure that hasn’t happened before. Oh […]
The key focus group of voters that politicians try to target is moving to the blue side of things: Independent voters overwhelmingly favor Democrats to take over the U.S. House of Representatives in the November 7 election and back them on major issues, a new Washington Post-ABC News poll said on Monday.
