Obama vs. Boehner: this is how a narcissist responds to disagreement

The New Neo Posted on February 10, 2010 by neoFebruary 10, 2010

Once more Obama poses as victim: it’s those mean old Republicans, out to get me! Obama is determined to paint the Republicans as the obstructionist bad guys, and he says it’s personal rather than about any sort of principle. If … Continue reading →

House Republicans reply: your move, Mr. President

The New Neo Posted on February 9, 2010 by neoFebruary 9, 2010

In the chess game between the parties, Obama has proposed televised bipartisan health care talks, and the House Republicans have countered with a rather nice gambit of their own. Check. Your move, President Obama.

It’s the independents, stupid

The New Neo Posted on February 5, 2010 by neoFebruary 5, 2010

Obama’s support is dropping among the independents of New Hampshire. This has become a general trend for Obama; the Scott Brown election polls and results showed the same precipitous decline among independents in Massachusetts, whose swing from Democratic to Republican … Continue reading →

Too much heat for the boiling frog?

The New Neo Posted on February 4, 2010 by neoFebruary 4, 2010

I often think that, had Pelosi, Reid, and Obama been just a little smarter, they would have moved more slowly and incrementally to the left. If they had not given away their hand so quickly, they might have lulled the … Continue reading →

And speaking of Vegas: can Republicans run the table in the Senate elections of 2010?

The New Neo Posted on February 3, 2010 by neoFebruary 3, 2010

I wouldn’t bet on it. But it’s theoretically possible that Republicans could win back the Senate in 2010 if they play their cards right. There are ten Senate seats in play that are currently held by Democrats but are considered … Continue reading →

A stunning admission from Scott Brown: people aren’t stupid

The New Neo Posted on January 30, 2010 by neoJanuary 30, 2010

In the end, the animating vision behind the message Scott Brown delivered was rather simple. Here it is folks: Mr. Brown says it frustrates him that too many politicians still believe that people will be fooled by what they’re proposing. … Continue reading →

Obama: premediation with malice aforethought

The New Neo Posted on January 30, 2010 by neoJanuary 30, 2010

Jay Cost at HorseRaceBlog takes up the Obama vs. Alito SOTU controversy: I think it was inappropriate for the President to take a shot at the Court in the way he did. The Court’s solid reputation is a public good … Continue reading →

Pelosi and health care: channeling Churchill and The Runaway Bunny

The New Neo Posted on January 29, 2010 by neoJanuary 29, 2010

Nancy Pelosi will fight for you. That is, she’ll fight against you. Or maybe she’ll do both simultaneously: she promises to muster nearly-Churchillian determination in order to pass health care reform. And whatever she does, remember, she does it for … Continue reading →

Obama and those mean old Republicans who refuse to be bipartisan

The New Neo Posted on January 28, 2010 by neoJanuary 28, 2010

One of Obama’s favorite ploys—and one prominently displayed last night in his SOTU speech—is to imply that Republicans are obstructionists who are blocking his agenda merely through desire to thwart the bipartisanship he so magnanimously offers. Of course, to Obama, … Continue reading →

Is it time to comment on the O’Keefe arrest?

The New Neo Posted on January 27, 2010 by neoJanuary 27, 2010

James O’Keefe, the man who was instrumental in making the ACORN-sting videos featured prominently by Breitbart, has been arrested along with three other men: A witness told authorities O’Keefe was sitting in the waiting area of [US Senator Mary] Landrieu’s … Continue reading →

Politics and good looks: Scott Brown and his predecessors

The New Neo Posted on January 23, 2010 by neoJanuary 23, 2010

It has not escaped my attention that Scott Brown is a very good-looking man. Now, I know that’s not the only reason, or even the primary reason, that people voted for him. He has other tremendous assets that are far … Continue reading →

Mr. Brown Goes To Washington

The New Neo Posted on January 21, 2010 by neoJanuary 21, 2010

I’ve been saving that title for quite some time. And now there it is, big as life—because Scott Brown, the Republican Senator-elect from Massachusetts, has gone to Washington today. Flying coach. As John McCain said, “Sen. Brown represents the dreams … Continue reading →
