More on that Republican field vs. Obama

The New Neo Posted on May 24, 2011 by neoMay 24, 2011

So now Giuliani is thinking about entering the race. Forgive me if I yawn; another big ho-hum. Giuliani’s time was last time, and he lost momentum, partly because he just didn’t seem to want it. If he enters now, it’s … Continue reading →

The Republican field: is it a bed of weeds?

The New Neo Posted on May 23, 2011 by neoMay 23, 2011

The Democrats are happy. As the Republican field shapes up, it looks either weak or strange, or in some cases both. Mitch Daniels has now pulled back for whatever reason—perhaps the fact that his family has decided they would be … Continue reading →

Gingrich: character revealing itself

The New Neo Posted on May 17, 2011 by neoMay 17, 2011

I’ve never liked Newt Gingrich. At all. It’s not that I couldn’t see he’s a pretty bright guy. He is, about some things. And it’s not just that my initial exposure to him was back when I was a liberal … Continue reading →

The Mitch Daniels marriage[s]: who cares?

The New Neo Posted on May 12, 2011 by neoMay 12, 2011

I can’t imagine why anyone would think that Mitch Daniels’s unusual marital history would be a problem with the electorate. The story is that his wife left him and married another man in the 90s, leaving him to raise his … Continue reading →

Obama the invincible?

The New Neo Posted on May 11, 2011 by neoMay 11, 2011

Obama may not be spiking the football—but ever since the Bin Laden killing, have you noticed how much the left has been doing so? I’ve also observed a general increase in visitors from the left to blogs or periodicals on … Continue reading →

Has Obama already won in 2012?

The New Neo Posted on May 3, 2011 by neoMay 3, 2011

It seems an absurd title for a post—of course he hasn’t won. The election’s a year and a half away. And yet I’ve been astounded at the number of people who say the election’s already over. From The View to … Continue reading →

Trump: Obama’s gadfly and jester

The New Neo Posted on April 26, 2011 by neoJanuary 27, 2016

Commenter “Daniel in Brookline” calls Trump a gadfly. It’s a word I’ve thought of often in connection with him and the Obama presidency, one that was originally used by Socrates to describe himself. Here’s an explanation of what Socrates meant … Continue reading →

How about the double-accountant ticket?

The suprise is not that Obama’s popularity is so low…

The New Neo Posted on April 16, 2011 by neoApril 16, 2011

…it’s that it’s still so high. But the latest poll shows further erosion among a group he must win in order to have a second term: independents. His support among them is only 35%. The only problem for Republicans is … Continue reading →

If the GOP was really surprised by the tone of Obama’s attack…

The New Neo Posted on April 15, 2011 by neoApril 15, 2011

…then they’re even stupider than I thought. This report indicates that Paul Ryan and the other Republicans who were specifically invited to the president’s speech and given seats of honor at their own verbal excoriation were surprised by its harsh … Continue reading →

The progressive People’s Budget

The New Neo Posted on April 12, 2011 by neoApril 12, 2011

Byron York reports on the budget that the House’s Progressive Caucus would like to see passed. The caucus is not small; it contains “76 members, about 40 percent of the 192 Democrats in the House,” including Barney Frank, John Conyers, … Continue reading →

Government shutdown has costs

The New Neo Posted on April 8, 2011 by neoApril 8, 2011

Think it’ll save money? Think again. And for those who pooh-poohed my assertion that shutting down national parks will lose a significant amount of money for certain states, the federal government collects $34 million a day in revenues just from … Continue reading →
