The Tea Party is in the process of replacing the Republican Establishment. It will take a few Presidential elections, but it’s happening. The Establishment can see it: Democrat and Republican. There is nothing it can do about this. Leftist New York Times columnist Frank Rich sees it and explains it from the liberal point of […]

Somehow, the bus driver who was to take the conservative members of the Virginia delegation to the Republican National Convention could not find a parking space. He would not stop. He drove round and round, three times. On board was my old colleague from the pre-Reagan years, Morton Blackwell. He has trained college conservatives for […]

If you give a lot of money to Mitt Romney’s campaign, Obama may mention you in one of his speeches. This is from Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell. McConnell told me that large donors to the Romney campaign are near the top of the President’s enemies list. The Obama campaign attacked eight of those contributors […]

U. S. Senate candidate Ted Cruz defeated the Establishment candidate by 12 percentage points: 56% to 44.% Yet he had lost in the primary in late May. But a runoff was required. The Establishment candidate did not get a majority in May. This is a huge turnaround. It sent a message to the Good Republican […]

But what is astounding is that the bill had 274 cosponsors, including 45 Democrats and 229 Republicans. These were not just people who voted yes. They actively promoted the […]

There are activists in the Tea Party movement who are unaware of when the movement began, and why. This video explains both. The issue is about more than taxes — just as the original tea party was. It’s about cutting spending. Because it is about cutting spending, there are fissures within the movement. As with […]

Ron Paul is getting a hearing from young voters and old ones. Both age groups think the two major parties are corrupt. This is not limited to the United States. Across Europe, the established parties are facing revolts. This is a prelude to real political change. The voters did not care until it hit their […]

From the day Ron Paul declared he was running, the mainstream media have had a problem: how to keep Paul’s message from getting a hearing. With a bunch of conservatives in the race, the media could safely focus on the conservative-of-the-month. But now Santorum has quit. It’s down to three: Romney, Gingrich, and Paul. How […]

Ron Paul came in third in Nevada. Here is the most libertarian state in the USA, yet he came in third. I’ve been there, done that. The Congressional election was stolen from him in 1976, but he could not prove it. That ended my time on Congress’s payroll. Do I think he was robbed in Nevada? […]

Before the revelation of his YouTubed town hall meeting, Congressman Chabot had banned cell phones at his town hall meetings since July 2011. Then he got publicity he did not need. The Tea Party went after him. The Tea Party joined the Left to skin him. This is a very good thing. This shows these […]
