Not this Year; not these Democrats: Lawlessness leads to looming election losses

When Eating Crow Doesn’t Taste SO Bad

Please excuse the understatement, but it seems that “Republican tsunami” blowout in the 2022 midterm elections never quite materialized. Instead, the Republican waves we saw gently lapped at the political shore; it was more leaking pipe than firehose. Evidently,...

Breaking: Republicans Sweep Senate and House (Tuesday’s Analysis–Why Wait?)

Republicans Hold Congress! (Tomorrow’s Analysis–Why Wait?)

In the film L.A. Story, Steve Martin plays a TV weatherman in Los Angeles, where the perfect weather is so predictable that he pre-records his forecasts days in advance. In spite of the breathless suspense regarding the U.S. midterms—not to...

Please, pro-Israel Democrats: Rescue your party
