Drudge proves himself to be a good sport by linking to a Joe Klein post at Time Magazine’s website, in which Klein savages Drudge. Drudge is probably more than a good sport, though. He’s smart, too, because all that the post does is make Klein look like an idiot. Here

If he’d been challenging the Clinton world view, things might have been entirely different, as they seem to be
Continue readingIf you picture me now, think of me in a Munch-like scream. I’m overwhelmed by all the scandals everywhere one looks. Believe it or not, I’m not actually thinking about Larry Craig right now. That’s a personal failing. It’s appropriate that he resigned because he apparently committed a criminal act,

Hillary Rodham Clinton yesterday raised the prospect of a terror attack before next year’s election, warning that it could boost the GOP’s efforts

Yesterday, the AP reported that Hillary stated explicitly that: Clinton said new tactics have brought some success against insurgents, particularly in Iraq’s Anbar province. “It’s working. We’re just years too late in changing our tactics,” she said. “We can’t ever let

Continue readingCliff Thier is looking ahead to the possibility that the 2008 election will see Hillary and Rudy competing against each other in the White House. With that in mind, he’s come up with a great idea for a campaign commercial. Aside from liking the idea, I think it’s incredibly important

Speaking of Hillary, I heard a woman today telling Michael Medved that, while she is a Republican, she’ll vote for Hillary because she wants
