T-Paw In Iowa
Last night, Paul reported on a Mike Huckabee event that he attended. Paul's conclusion was that Huckabee is a conservative, albeit not a conventional one. Paul, however, "[is] not a Mike Huckabee conservative." In my view, Pawlenty and Mitt Romney are far and away the Republicans' best Pre...

A ray of hope inside the beltway
Breaking away from my image, at least, of the political consultant, Comstock decided to run for "low office" this year, namely the Virginia House of Delegates. The seat in question is in Fairfax County, including the wealthy Washington, DC suburb of McLean. The Republicans had held the se...

Dan Senor and Saul Singer: Start-up Nation
What Americans need to realize, though, is it's not just Israelis who can be focused, brash, and driven. While almost every Israeli has served in the military, many Americans have never met a Marine. America has an important part of what makes Israel so dynamic and innovative, but doesn't k...

How the Conservative Movement Looks from the Outside
Of course, the event that Nagourney wrote about was the Value Voters Summit, sponsored by the Family Research Council. So, sure, there was talk about the social issues. If Nagourney had covered an event sponsored by the Heritage Foundation or the Club for Growth, not so much. But Nagourney,...

The reality is that, when he's in form, McCain is deeper than just about anyone. Recall his debates with Mitt Romney (and a cast of thousands). Romney was articulate (probably more so than Obama) and knowledgeable. But McCain had an octave that Romney just couldn't reach (though Giuliani di...

Opinion: A new Republican frontrunner?
For some time, Rudy Giuliani has justifably been considered the Republican frontrunner, though not a terribly convincing one. As Giuliani continues to slip slowly in the polls, I'm beginning to think that Mitt Romney can now claim this (perhaps dubious) distinction.

Props to Huckabee
Mike Huckabee apparently has told Wolf Blitzer that he apologized to Mitt Romney after the debate for asking a New York Times reporter, ‘‘Don’t Mormons ‘believe that Jesus and the devil are brothers?’’ As I said, there's no reason to believe Huckabee is a bigot. He just let the temptation t...

National Review endorses Mitt Romney
The editors of the National Review have endorsed Mitt Romney for president. They have thus made far more progress than me -- I've been unable to eliminate even one member of what used to be considered the top tier (Romney, Giuliani, McCain, and Thompson).

The odor of liberal name-calling
This is not to deny that some of the candidates sounded less than presidential in discussing the issue. Certainly, that was the case with Rudy Giuliani when he attacked Mitt Romney because the company Romney hired to take care of his lawn employed illegal aliens. As Romney replied, it's not...
