The Other McCain

"One should either write ruthlessly what one believes to be the truth, or else shut up." — Arthur Koestler

Greetings from Bristol, Va.

Please excuse the 24-hour absence of bl0gging, and thanks to Smitty and Wombat for producing excellent content in my absence. Yesterday I drove from Hagerstown to Christiansburg, Va., and then on to Abingdon, where I filed 950 words last night The American Spectator: ABINGDON, Va. — Rick Boucher voted for the “Job-Killing Cap & Trade Energy Tax,” says […]

Gov. Pete DuPont Steps Up To The Plate

by Smitty A late night dose of righteousness from The Libertarian Republican. Gov. Pete DuPont in the WSJ, emphasis mine: So last week I attended two O’Donnell-Coons debates and saw a campaign that could determine which party will be in the Senate majority. Mr. Coons has been elected three times to New Castle County office; […]

The WaPo Looks Really Bad Over Christine O’Donnell

WaPo, As a subscriber, one hopes that the correct people are held accountable for this debacle: http://patterico.com/2010/10/20/wapoap-caught-revising-the-o%E2%80%99donnell-story-without-issuing-a-correction/ Suggestion: man up, do the correct thing, and give Christine O’Donnell a proper interview, post-haste. The media, in general, is engaged in a McCarthyite war against a lawful candidate, and the WaPo ought to be extinguishing, rather than […]

Unnamed Senior Dems Admit Delaware Senate Race Will Be Close

by Smitty Some more insight into why Obama Went Down To Delaware, courtesy of HillBuzz, emphasis mine: Somehow, I turned the topic. . .to Christine O’Donnell’s Senate race in Delaware because the guy I was talking to did a lot of fundraising in New England during the 2008 campaign and I know he “gets” states […]

Just Watched Christine O’Donnell And That Other Dude Debate

by Smitty Update II: Let us pray that enlightenment, or a ludicrous amount of pressure, finds Mike Castle. No one can make the old duffer do the graceful thing here: he has every right to be a cantankerous, Ruling Class putz and fail to support the American cause. I support and defend his constitutional right […]

Obama Went Down To Delaware

by Smitty Obama going to Delaware on Friday? Via AmericanGlob, Rush says it’s all panic. Allahpundit likes the WaPo analysis: Obama isn’t just visiting; he is also bringing Vice President Biden, who formerly occupied the Senate seat and has already campaigned on behalf of Coons. Democratic officials insisted the stop isn’t all about celebrating their […]

EXCLUSIVE: Christine O’Donnell Hits Democrat Chris Coons on Taxes Again

In her second statewide campaign mailing, Delaware Senate candidate Christine O’Donnell reinforces her message about Democrat Chris Coons’ record of raising taxes in New Castle County: “When it comes to politicians getting their hands on your tax dollars . . . no one does it better than Chris Coons!” While O’Donnell’s two TV ads have […]

When Will Christine O’Donnell TV Ads Hammer ‘Baldy the Tax-Hiking Wanker’?

Woke up this morning to discover that last night’s post about Christine O’Donnell’s new ad was the top item at Memeorandum, with links by Da Tech Guy, Left Coast Rebel, Gateway Pundit and, of course, not Allahpundit. Yet I will quote He Who Linketh Not: Not a syllable is breathed here about policy, party affiliation, or conservatism; it’s […]
