So there’s plenty of news to go around about the Faux Fox Forum. The Union Leader wrote today about both the Fox forum and ABC’s debates the previous day. The ABC debates, unknown to me, also excluded Duncan Hunter, and Democrats Dennis Kucinich, Joe Biden, and Chris Dodd. Shame on … Continue reading
Well, turns out my previous blog about Fox, though correctly linking to comments on the Forum issue, may have been based on bad information which got its bump most notably from AP. The whole story is convoluted but there continues to be misinformation and/or outright confusion starting when AP reported … Continue reading
The Wall Street Journal just ran an opinion article titled “Ron Beats Rudy?” In addition to candidates and other politician types, it mentions four people by name who have been instrumental in the Paul campaign in New Hampshire: Jim Forsythe, Keith Murphy, Kate Rick, and Jared Chicoine.

Here are the ratings expressed as percentage of a perfect score: The Varrin Rating Paul (R):Tancredo … Continue reading
I just sent this email to everyone I know whose email addresses I have: Y’all, This is the first time in years that I’ve emailed every email address I have in my address book. I suppose it would only be right to say hello before I get to my purpose … Continue reading
