The Rise of the Independents

January 7th, 2011

By Tom Carter An interesting Gallup poll has just been released. It measured people’s self-identification as Democrats, Republicans, and Independents. It also identified Independents who lean Democratic or lean Republican. The findings came from a combination of numerous polls, resulting in an uncommonly broad and deep sample. The nature of the sample permits an unusually [...]

What Happens After the Election?

November 2nd, 2010

By Tom Carter The election has finally come. Within the next 24 hours we should know what the House, the Senate, and state governments look like in terms of party majorities. Of course, there will probably be some extended re-counts and possibly lawsuits of one kind or another, but except for the make-up of the [...]

Real Men

August 16th, 2010

By Nancy Morgan Rush Limbaugh stated emphatically last week that “Real men aren’t liberal. And real men, real men, don’t vote for liberals.” Rush, once again, hits the nail on the head. And here’s why. Real men have an innate sense of self that is not dependent on group approval. They have not succumbed to [...]

Slammed By The WSJ

April 20th, 2010

By Brianna Aubin I just wanted to share with everyone a couple of great articles in the Wall Street Journal that caught my eye today. The first is titled “Why the Left Needs Racism” by James Taranto. It shows how the Tea Partiers are damned if they do, damned if they don’t when it comes [...]

Redundant Idiocy

March 22nd, 2010

by Jane Thomas My husband prefers to go fishing rather than listen to my Sunday morning TV programs dealing with political activities. His special pet peeve is Washington Journal when general public calls are taken, calls which he deems range from incredibly ignorant to purposefully stupid statements.

Third Party in 2012 Campaign?

February 28th, 2010

By Tom Carter Will there be a serious third-party candidate in the 2012 presidential campaign? The way things are going, it’s beginning to look like that could happen. If it does, it will be a right-wing third party, its candidate will not win, and it may well guarantee the re-election of Barack Obama. Let’s look at [...]

Demoralized in America

November 26th, 2009
