Last night’s debate
No, I didn’t watch. Actually, that’s not true. I watched – that is, I was on an airplane the whole time, and the person next to me was viewing the debate on her little TV screen, listening to it with … Continue reading →

How would Hillary do it?
Let me say at the outset that I don’t buy this scenario. But so many people are talking about Hillary Clinton being chosen as the 2020 Democratic nominee for president in the Democratic convention that I thought I’d explain my … Continue reading →
Sanders has stent procedure
I don’t actually think that a procedure like this would be a deal-breaker for a candidate in and of itself: Bernie Sanders experienced chest discomfort during a campaign event Tuesday evening and had two stents inserted to address a blockage … Continue reading →
Cornhead reports on Tom Steyer
Intrepid “Cornhead” (aka Dave Begley) reports on Tom Steyer’s visit to Council Bluffs, Iowa. Excerpt: By all accounts Tom Steyer is a billionaire. He’s also running for President. He has no chance of winning. So why is he running? Why … Continue reading →
Beto O’Rourke is all in on reparations for marijuana offenders
I continue to marvel that Beto O’Rourke almost became a senator from Texas. Of course, back then he didn’t sound quite as far-left as he does now. Prior to that, O’Rourke was a member of the House from a largely … Continue reading →
Bill, we hardly knew ya
De Blasio drops out of the race, and Trump mocks him: President Trump wasted no time mocking Mayor Bill de Blasio on Friday after Hizzoner announced he was ending his far-fetched bid for the presidency. “Oh no, really big political … Continue reading →

Democrats and that pesky old Constitution (plus a Neo audio)
I just wrote a post about the Democrats’ cavalier attitude towards the 2nd Amendment, but that post was more about politics. Now I want to emphasize the anti-Constitutional aspects of the move. As John Hinderaker of Powerline writes: …[W]hy should … Continue reading →
Gun-grabbing Democrats and the bitter clingers
I wonder what polls Kamala Harris had access to that make her think the time was ripe for the “just do it” approach to gun control: During last night’s Democratic presidential debate, former Vice President Joe Biden admonished Sen. Kamala … Continue reading →
Last night’s Democratic debate
I didn’t watch it. I’m not a masochist. And I dislike debates anyway, no matter what side they’re on. But I hear tell about it. Sounds like the highlights (or low lights, depending how you look at it) were Beto … Continue reading →
