to ruin my holiday.
Why can’t he just admit that he lost, admit that his political career is over (much like his financial management career, I hear) and go away?
What is it with NC-03 candidates? Between McLaughlin and Weber, we must be the laughing stock of all the nation!
Earlier this week (I think it was Tuesday or Wednesday morning) I was bicycling to work and had this flitting thought:
I haven’t heard the names “Joe McLaughlin” or “Delma Collins” in a while. Isn’t that nice?"
And it was, it was very nice…But it wasn’t to last very long. Follow the jump for details.
Why are so many of the losing incumbents and losing candidates for election behaving so poorly? It’s an exercise in classlessness, from my point of view.
Take soon-to-be former Senator Elizabeth Dole from North Carolina as an example. Her concession speech was not conciliatory, it was not gracious, nor was it very polite and she [...]
We all know Tuesday is Election Day here in the U.S. I’m sure it’s an election that the world will be watching, as well as very nervous Americans.
I’ll be posting frequent updates here (probably every half-hour to hour) and will be Twittering updates as well.

President of the [...]

An email just hit my inbox.
Fellow Republicans,
"I am mad as hell and I am not going to take it anymore!" I am boycotting NBC over their biased reporting of the campaign and the SNL skit on Saturday night. I am also boycotting their sponsors…
It might not seem like much, but I am also giving up [...]
Contact your elected representatives and urge them not to support the Bush Administration’s $700,000,000,000 bail-out of Wall Street on our tax-dime. The Bush Plan has no support for Main Street Americans or home-owners that face foreclosure. The Administration’s plan also specifically denies Americans any course of action for oversight or recourse against the government’s actions [...]
I haven’t covered the 2008 elections enough since the North Carolina Primaries in May and for that I apologize.
Some of the comments made on Wednesday evening have given me cause to join the conversation…Former New York City Mayor and also-ran for the Republican nomination Rudy Giuliani and Alaska’s Governor and Republican candidate for Vice President [...]
FactCheck.org asks:
Is it true John McCain voted with George Bush 95 percent of the time?
