HILLARY, THE GERALDO OF NATIONAL POLITICS (UPDATE: HILLARY FIBBING?)

Captain Ed has a terrific article about Hillary. His comparison of her to Geraldo is on the money.

WICKER TO THE SENATE

Well, they couldn't possibly appoint someone as bad as Trent Lott was, could they?

I was glad to read this story. Certainly candidates need to stop the free ride for these consultants.

DEMOCRATS' BIG IDEAS YIELDED SMALL RESULTS

The truth is the Democrats have fallen flat on their faces.

ROMNEY ATTACKS MCCAIN TAX VOTES

This is the kind of substantive issue discussion that we need to see more of. John McCain voted no on all Bush tax cuts. I'd like to hear him discuss why.

Interesting endorsements and non-endorsements.

ONE MAN GRIDLOCK: MEET TOM COBURN, THE SENATE'S DR. NO

I like Senator Coburn. He is one of the stalwarts in the battle for fiscal responsibility.

SPENDING BILLS STILL STUFFED WITH EARMARKS

over 11,000 earmarks. The question is how long are we, the American people, going to put up with this?

TANCREDO DROPS BID FOR WHITE HOUSE

Tom Tancredo has dropped his futile bid for the White House and endorsed Mitt Romney.

ONE BUDGET CHEER

President Bush gave Congress a pass on earmarks. That will come back to haunt the Republican party.

TANCREDO TO ABANDON PRESIDENTIAL BID

Rumor is that he will announce tomorrow that he is supporting Fred Thompson.

BLANKLEY NOT FIRING BLANKS

Tony Blankley writes for the Washington Times. His article about the in-fighting of the Republican party is on the money. Ed Morrissey of Captain's Quarters has the story.
