How Obama Wins (Hint: He already did!) - 236.com - News

Tue, 30 Sep 2008 11:25:36 PDT
Bill Kristol's column from yesterday offered some suggestions for "How McCain Wins." Kristol wants McCain to pull even more "impetuous" stunts like his airlift into Washington to save the bailout. Kristol also jumps on the "Free Sarah Palin" bandwagon, because obviously giving that one the keys to the store is going to save everything.

OpEdNews Poll: What issue will Obama move to the center righ

Wed, 02 Jul 2008 15:34:03 PDT
I won't say flip-flop because the faith-based initiative announcement should have been expected after all Obama has done to make sure people know he is not Muslim but a Believer-in-Christ. However, there have been reversals of stances (NAFTA, gun control laws, the death penalty, and FISA).

Tue, 01 Jul 2008 08:14:35 PDT
Clay Felker, founder of New York, passed away this morning.
