That’s what Keith Koffler, reporter and editor of White House Dossier, recommends, and something I’ve been saying and writing for quite some time now (Politico) If Republicans want a chance at resurgence, they must take a page or two out of President Obama’s worn playbook and veer sharply negative. But only a page or two. […]

Daily reminder: they aren’t cuts. Just a slight reduction in the rate of spending increase, but, you know, if the Sequestration is allowed to proceed the animals in the national parks will turn feral and start eating tourists before joining forces and attacking cities (Daily Caller) In an effort to put the looming automatic spending […]
