Liberal Class Warfare Rhetoric…And Then There’s The Truth

In what is sure to be a tough fought election full of scathing rhetoric, none has been more apparent in the last year then the class warfare being perpetrated for the most part by those on the left. “Republican’s represent the rich. Republican’s support the rich. Evil millionaires and billionaires the lot of them.” “Democrat’s represent the little guy. Democrat’s support the poor and downtrodden. Democrat’s are ‘one of you’”. Basic political rhetoric that most often comes from those on the left. Especially when their fiscal record is as bad…

3 things Romney needs to get Right, and so far he only has 1 of them.

  To win in November, Mitt Romney has to get three things right. First, he has to be a positive physical presence, showing Americans what an optimistic American face looks like. Second, he needs to show how the American Mind works to solve problems. Third, he must win over the undecideds and the Blue Dog Democrats. He achieves the first with some ease. He does look like a president, and although a little stiff and awkward at times, he has a smile and positive outlook that is very American. Unlike…

Democrat Primary Voter Tells Poll Worker That “Obama Can Go To Hell”

   Today is New Jersey’s primary election day.  It’s not exactly one of the most intense primaries on the statewide level that we have ever seen though. On the presidential side, New Jersey’s nearly last place in the primary lineup essentially made the contest meaningless in the selection of a Republican presidential nominee from the get-go.  But to make it even more meaningless, Mitt Romney is the only Republican candidate still actively running for the nomination.  However, Newt Gingrich, Rick Santorum and Ron Paul were still on the ballot. So given the…

Examining Democrat Spin On Mourdock Win

By

Upon witnessing their voting ally, Richard Lugar, go down in flames Tuesday, Democrats wasted little time before issuing statements that implied that conservatives, by unceremoniously dumping Lugar, were actually hurting themselves. In an email circulated Tuesday afternoon, DCCC spokesman Matt Canter wrote, “By defeating Dick Lugar and nominating Richard Mourdock, the Tea Party is poised to hand another strong pick-up opportunity for Democrats”. Meanwhile, Tad Devine, a Democratic strategist said, “If the Senate race turns out to be a moderate Democrat and an out-of-step Republican, moderate voters who regret that…

It’s Tea Time In Indiana

By

Today is a good day if you’re a conservative because yesterday was a very good day. In a GOP open primary with significant symbolism, Indiana voters put it to incumbent Richard Lugar and the Republican establishment, badly. When results began trickling in last night, it became obvious early that not only was conservative candidate Richard Mourdock going to prevail, but it was going to be a rout. A reality in politics is that it’s rare for an incumbent to get tossed aside in a primary. So rare, in fact, it…

Tea Party Wins Even If Mourdock Loses

By

Much has been made of the Richard Mourdock and Richard Lugar primary Tuesday in Indiana. But why? After all, it’s only a primary. It’s a Republican versus Republican primary to boot. And it’s Indiana. These are all correct descriptions of the GOP primary, but they tell only a small part of the story. More accurately, depending on your word preference, it is an establishment versus conservative showdown or a D.C. elites versus purists ideological fight or a Tea-party versus RINO clash. It is this that makes the Indiana primary of…

In The Conservative Crosshairs: Richard Lugar

By

Richard Lugar is a longtime senator from Indiana but hasn’t owned a home there since 1977. And it is this type of paradox, a political career’s worth, that has Sen. Luger in the conservative’s cross-hairs. Sen. Lugar was born and raised in Indiana and graduated first in his class at Shortridge High School in 1950. He attended Denison University and went on to obtain a second Bachelors degree and a MA from Pembroke College, Oxford, England. He was also a Rhodes Scholar. He did a stint in the United States…

In The Conservative Crosshairs: Tim Murphy

By

Congressman Tim Murphy is a five term Republican from Pennsylvania. He is Co-chair of the Mental Health Caucus and GOP Doctors Caucus, a member of the House Energy and Commerce Committee and serves as the Vice-Chair of the Subcommittee on Environment and Economy. And he has a target on his back. The Campaign for Primary Accountability, a super PAC, has targeted Republican Rep. Tim Murphy for removal. From a conservative’s perspective, Murphy has a poor voting record during his five terms in office. In fairness, he represents the 18th District,…
