                    The problem for McCain is that he himself has depicted lobbyists as being the Devil Incarnate.

                    Sometimes being a "maverick" isn't as glorious as one thinks it will be.

                    Is Michelle Obama claiming Reagan's mantle of optimism and patriotic pride for her husband?

                    It's easy to see why Ted Kennedy would try to wrap Mr. Obama in the tattered mantle of his older brother, but is that a robe Mr. Obama should wear?

                    In many ways, Martin Luther King was a good man - certainly a highly intelligent man.  Well read, well spoken, influential well beyond his life.  But equal to all the Presidents of the nation?

                    Bush-bashers hate to admit it, but a smaller percentage of active-duty military personnel died during both Bush administrations than during the Reagan and Carter administrations.

                    The left-wing blogsphere claim that Hillary's people stole the election from Obama.  The evidence, if true, is staggering.
