"To suggest that men and women that are taking a stand for fiscal discipline and traditional values in the national debate today only speak for quote, ‘grassroots activists' is absurd. As evidenced by the hundreds of thousands that filled town hall meetings this summer and the nearly a million Americans who gathered here in Washington in September - millions of Americans, Republicans, Democrats...
In a piece by David Renmick in the New Yorker there's any interesting quote by David Plouffe, the Obama Campaign manager, about perhaps a dark horse candidate emerging to win the GOP Presidential nomination. Mr. Plouffe suggests that "we ought to learn from the Obama experience that someone can come out, not someone you've never heard of but someone who you just didn't think would run for President."...
The Call 'Em Out series continues this week -- and this time we’re calling out the House GOP . All but one Republican member of the House voted against health insurance reform last Saturday. During the 12-hours preceding the vote, GOP members stood at the podium spouting lie after lie in a last ditch effort to kill reform. Watch our video showing all of the outrageous lies from the House debate...
I'm two weeks late in producing my every-two-months rankings of the likely 2012 Republican nominees for President. (I would offer as my excuse all the local political races I've had to cover, but most of you already know it's the cyber-slacking!) Anyway, no new #1, as Tim Pawlenty keeps doing all the right things -- including, next month, the first major New Hampshire visit by a serious '12 contender....
Congressman Mike Pence is one of the leaders of the Republican Party in the House and widely understood to be a moron . This speech might show something different though: (If the video doesn't work, try http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hrp_kZ9ZL_8 .) He says his cousin 1. has cancer, 2. opposes health care reform, and 3. is awaiting approval for experimental treatment. Pence is serving the insurance...
Rep. Bart Stupak of Michigan (above) is definitely not a Blue Dog . He has principles . He's a pro-life Democrat and Republicans like Indiana's Mike Pence has voiced admiration for the Stupak amendment, which prevents taxpayer dollars from being spent on abortions in new federal programs. "We won because [the Democrats] need us," says Mr. Stupak. "If they are going to summarily dismiss...
On Monday's Countdown show, MSNBC host Keith Olbermann took issue with Republican Governor Haley Barbour's contention that President Obama has personal popularity -- based partially on being the first black President -- that is separate from the unpopularity of Obama's policies, as the MSNBC host referred to President Obama as a "target of racism from the right." As he discussed the matter...
An up-and-coming member of the Republican caucus in the US House, Mike Pence of Indiana, delivers a great speech during the debate this past weekend: (HT Fred)
If August was anything to go by, the Democratic politicians in Washington might just want to cancel their vacation. The Politico : The rhetorical and tactical battle lines, however, are similar to the tumultuous summer recess. Senate Republican leaders are encouraging their members to hold health care town halls. And House Republicans have armed their troops with a 16-page memo detailing talking points...
Over the weekend, I spoke at a conference of conservative college newspaper editors. (We were in San Antonio--I blogged about the visit a couple of times here .) About 130 or 140 were in attandance, representing papers from Harvard and Tufts to Illinois and UC-San Diego. At the end of my remarks on Friday night, I took a poll. Who did they prefer for the Republican nomination in 2012? I gave them a...
