More on last night’s primaries

Thanks to dhorowitz3 at Redstate for this “pump it up” rundown of last night’s primaries. It is heartening to see the tea party/liberty group influence on these OH SO important races. We have not gone away, we have not lost our focus or our passion. We have been working in our neighborhoods, working the media, [...]

Wanna check last night’s primary results?

Politico has this very cool feature which I make use of for every primary election (and general of course) to monitor and check results. I suggest bookmarking it!

This is why I didn’t see Avatar

Caleb Howe at Redstate reports on the somewhat highly publicized “calling out” by James Cameron of the global warming skeptics and the ridiculous and pathetically cowardly way he backed out at the last minute. Read Caleb’s account and you’ll delight in how Ann McElhinney (producer of the Anti-Gore documentary Not Evil Just Wrong) who is [...]

Rubio / Crist / Meek / Greene

Allahpundit breaks down the Florida situation and gives us a bit of the “groovy optimism” The money line? Neither [Crist nor Meek] can win without heavy Democratic support, and since Meek’s the party nominee, most of it should go to him. (The perfect set-up for a 45/35/20 Rubio win!)

Americans for Prosperity

We know that you can tell a lot about a person/organization by their enemies. Check out this Redstate article by Erick Erickson in which Obama calls out Americans for Prosperity for running ads against Democrats. Really? Is that now a case for our president to make, ads? pfft. Americans for Prosperity (AFP) is a well [...]

Have ya heard Mick Mulvaney?

We’ve mentioned Mick a few times here at STP … he’s ahead in the race right now to unseat John Spratt right across the county line in the fifth congressional district. Spratt … a Pelosi lapdog to the infinity degree … Spratt who while charged by law to present a budget by April 15 has [...]

The “Splitting the Vote” Issue

JadedByPolitics has a great post at Redstate about the “splitting the vote” issue. Its catchy title “How to make the TEA Party irrelevant in one election cycle…” is spot on. I confess I struggle with wanting the emotional victory of mounting opposition to a RINO vs. the practical understanding that someone who will vote 85% [...]
