I started this a few days ago…it wasn’t very focused from the start and only went downhill from there. But, because I still want to document the Transition Agreement story in my posting history (along with several other pokes at the intellectually unserious along the way), here it is anyway… While many like to pretend …

I will start by pointing out the intended specificity related to the “soft” modifier used above to limit the target of this post to a sub-section of those who occupy a broader section of the American political spectrum. I will leave to the reader to decide if he (in the universal sense) is included or …

As posted this morning at the legacy site: A search of the term shows that I am certainly not the first and/or only Member to touch on the subject, but I have touched on it several times in pushing my own agenda around here…like this example from January 13 of this year: So many years …

Around this time on the eve of Election Eve four years ago I posted about the competing realities surrounding the perceived state of the race. That post is recreated in its entirety below. Looking back at that moment, it is chilling to see that the “optimists” were still looking to filter the polling data for …

A few days before this year’s officially-cited-but-not-really-observed election "day" provides a good opportunity to return to this series…it being a (very imperfect but sometimes informative) touchstone into the ever-shrinking world of the moderately intellectually honest Democrat. In this episode Madam Althouse appears to come out from behind the usual forced neutrality with a brief but …

With a slight modification to be less specific and more fitting to the still evolving impact of the modern Progressive movement on the relationship between We the People and the Government that strives more and more to rule us, the title above seems about perfect.  As related to us by Powerline this morning, the comes to us from …

I regret to inform those who have been anxiously awaiting the data tables promised in the PREVIEW post a few weeks back that they are about to be disappointed. Links is all you will get today (see below). I just have time today to start poking at the data just a little bit. You may remember that …

When boiled down to simple terms, some decisions just are not that hard.  With that said, unless I’ve missed a big endorsement announcement, I feel the need to ask: Is it a shameful and (re-)defining silence in or around this tent? With just a smidge over two weeks before Republican voters are required to stop …

Or…the alternate title: Eighty-Plus Million Biden Votes My Arse. While I’m sure this has been done before, I feel it needs to be done again under the critical eye of my very important agenda. I am working on a post to evaluate the impact of the basic strategy noted in the title above as demonstrated …
