A Southern Illinois newspaper reports what should be an ominous warning for Obama occurring in Illinois, his homestate. His margin of victory is narrowing in the one state that everyone assumes he should have in the bag.
In 2008 Obama won his homestate by 25 points against John McCain. That is landslide proportions, [...]

I remember having to take an on-line learning class about the Millennial generation, a long, long, long class about how to deal with them, coach them, train them, understand their feelings, which could all be boiled down to a simple phrase: “I’m entitled. Gimme.” Also, the phrase “It’s all about me” crops up. Obviously, it [...]

ATM’s, floods, hurricanes, earthquakes, European debt, Arab spring, you name it, the voters aren’t buying blaming it
(Fox News) Most American voters blame bad leadership for the condition of the economy, and think Democrats and Republicans alike have hurt more than helped the situation.
That’s according to a Fox News poll released Friday.

I don’t know if he is electable or not, but I know I like what he has to say. I’ve been looking at the candidates and my initial instinct has swayed toward Herman Cain from the begining. I am hopeful he isn’t just the “flavor of the week”, and he sticks in there. [...]

To read the headlines tonight, one might think that the results of the Florida straw poll (Herman Cain won big, in case you didn’t know) are both shocking and a rebuke to at least one or more of the other GOP candidates. In my opinion, having watched and listened to Mr. Cain — and [...]

He’s just the latest scapegoat for everything that goes wrong in ObamaLand. It’s never Obama’s fault. It’s Europe, earthquakes, tornadoes, that darned TEA Party, the Republicans who were apparently in charge of Congress since Obama was coronated, the fact that Obama doesn’t have power like China’s leaders, and, of course, George W. Bush. The front [...]
