There is lots to say, but, it all comes down to Bush has a plan, and he tells us what it is. Kerry has a plan, and doesn’t tell us. Bush, hands down winner. Substance and style. Period. Morning Update: Kerry is obviously a slick debater, and moves around subjects. But he rarely answers the […]

Seems like it wasn’t Edwards’ home town paper, the Raleigh News and Observer, who coined the phrase “Senator Gone.” It was: coined by The Pilot, the weekly newspaper of Southern Pines, in the southeastern edge of Moore County. Edwards grew up in the Moore County town of Robbins, about 20 miles north. The Pilot, with […]

My final thoughts on the debate: Cheney killed Senator Gone on foreign issues, and beat him 6-4 on the domestic issues. I do not adhere to what many of the talking heads are saying, that Edwards won on the domestic stuff. Edwards gave the talking points, but it wasn’t flowing. Cheney was gruff and level […]

Quick live blog. Edwards talks about ceding responsibility to the Europeans for the Iranian nuclear danger. So, European countries are ok to help us in Iraq, but not capable to deal with Iran? Why would we want countries to who cannot deal with non combat toughness to help with combat? And sanctions? They have worked […]

I had an interesting conversation with a Lefty this morning on a forum. Revolved around “what has Kerry done in his Senate years.” It started out as saying that Kerry had done nothing. I replied: JFK jr has lots of accomplishments. Ranked the most liberal senator in the senate.Voted against every major weapons system. Voted […]

That would be John Forbes Heinz-Kerry. William Dafire thinks he is. As the Democratic Whoopee Brigade hailed Senator Kerry’s edge in debating technique, nobody noticed his foreign policy sea change. On both military tactics and grand strategy, the newest neoconservative announced doctrines more hawkish than President Bush. First, on war-fighting in Iraq: Hard-liners criticized the […]

Our Lefty friends our pontificating on Florida voters being disenfranchised. However, this same article that they are using for their complaints states: Thousands of Floridians who think they’re registered to vote could be turned away at the polls Nov. 2 because their voter registration forms weren’t completely filled out, officials said Friday. (Emphasis mine) If […]

Go here for the Kerry’s Global Test. Hat tip to Instapundit for finding it at Transterrestrial Musings. As for me: We’re sorry, but your score of -2900 is not sufficiently high to justify your imperialistic foreign adventure. You will be billed for this test, and you may take it again, by pressing the “Repeat Test” […]

During the next debate, W kicks Kerry all over the debate floor, hounding him about how Kerry plans to pay for all his programs. Hey, I really like Kerry’s environmental plans. I detest the way Bush has treated the environment. But, I am realistic. There is no way Kerry can pay for his environmental programs […]

Early in the day for me for any deep writings. I avoided listening to the talking heads after the debate, did not read any blogs other then Captain Ed’s live blogging, and have only heard a little bit on FoxNews and the Bob and Tom Show this am. Me, I call it a draw. Both […]
