Be forewarned. A group of bloggers in Ohio wanted, nay demanded seats at a fundraiser featuring Senator Obama.
Now there are volunteers who cannot attend such events based on cost, and are denied entry. Yet the Ohio blogs made their anger felt, and as a result the Ohio Democrats relented.
Now the arrogance and ego [...]
I picked up this film when I was in Washington last week (at the National Shrine at Catholic University), some for private reasons, and some because it’s a great story.
Blessed Father Damien volunteered to minister to the leper colony on the Hawaiian island of Molokai (phonetically pronounced mo-lo’-kai-ee). During the late 19th century, Molokai [...]
The Mason Conservative concludes that Miller is not only the stronger Democratic candidate against Allen, but that he will win the primary as well.
You gotta love vindication, especially when it comes from the Richmond Times-Dispatch.
A few insights in the article, namely that (a) bloggers supportive of Webb are hurting his chances, (b) Miller is the stronger candidate, and (c) even Democrats are drawing the Howard Dean comparison to James Webb’s campaign.
It’s on folks. Even Senator Chuck Schumer [...]
Hope everyone is enjoying their Memorial Day weekend and thanking those who made it possible. My brother specifically charged his classes with “thanking a veteran” for their homework over the weekend after the vast majority of his students could not identify what Memorial Day was memorializing.
Thank a military family too… they sacrifice every bit [...]
Vince over at Too Conservative is predicting a Harris Miller victory over James Webb, 57-43.
I’m starting to hear rumors as well that Miller is doing much better than expected.
Yes, I’ve been beating the drum that Miller is the one to watch, but not because I’m rooting for him. Miller can self-finance in a national [...]
The comment that started it all:
There might be nothing more uncomfortable than a candidate whose analogies don’t come from personal experience. Harris Miller is Jewish and doesn’t go to church!
The tailspin finally hits with a dramatic thud. Not only have the Webbsters over at Not Larry Sabato refused to apologize for this trite remark, [...]
AN AMAZING PHOTOGRAPH!!!
These are the small miracles, folks.
What good online journalism creates and deserves:
The rhetoric is already flying, as are the stats and studies. One problem with social-science research is that it’s hard for the layperson to distinguish valid from invalid studies, so sorting out the truth is tough. For example, as Chris Braunlich points out on the Bacon’s Rebellion Web site, [...]
Pope Benedict XVI is wrapping up his visit to Poland this week. Many observers are remarking Poland’s Catholic identity, and how it’s playing not only in public life there but at the European Union as well:
It was the late pope’s fervent hope that the intense spirituality of his native Poland would spark a ‘new [...]
