The New Neo Posted on September 17, 2010 by neoSeptember 17, 2010

More on the Castle defeat and O’Donnell victory

The New Neo Posted on September 15, 2010 by neoSeptember 15, 2010

The New Neo Posted on September 14, 2010 by neoSeptember 14, 2010

A new Quinnipiac poll highlights some recent trends on hot-button issues such as illegal immigration and the Ground Zero mosque. On most of the questions, there is a huge disconnect between Republicans and Democrats. This is unsurprising; it’s the stance … Continue reading →

Bragging on HCR

The New Neo Posted on September 6, 2010 by neoSeptember 6, 2010

It’s not really surprising that Blue Dog Democrats who voted against HCR in the House are bragging on that fact in their 2010 campaign ads. They’re from relatively conservative districts, and it makes sense that they would point up their … Continue reading →

Paul Krugman…

The New Neo Posted on September 4, 2010 by neoSeptember 4, 2010

…appears to finally have gone stark raving mad. He thinks Obama has erred in following: …a strategy of playing it safe: never put forward proposals that might fail to pass, avoid highlighting the philosophical differences between the parties. Has Krugman … Continue reading →

HCR, the turning point

The New Neo Posted on September 1, 2010 by neoSeptember 1, 2010

November 2010 prognostications

The New Neo Posted on August 26, 2010 by neoAugust 26, 2010
