The sides seem dug in. Determined. No one will budge. The President recommends a new Supreme Court Justice to replace (no one of course replaces this justice) Justice Scalia. Merrick Garland. A good solid judge but probably more liberal than Scalia. The GOP controlled Senate (elections do matter) say not even a hearing. No vote […]

While Ted Cruz has been mostly silent on criticism of Donald Trump, the same cannot be said about his supporters. There are a lot of people bashing Trump these days but none more vociferous than the Cruzers. And for the record, I am not blaming Cruz for the actions of his supporters. And the Trump […]

Donald Trump? When Donald Trump started making noises again that he was going to run for president, I laughed him off. Just a publicity stunt, he’ll never actually run. Trump could never be a serious candidate, could he? Besides, I have said many times that while on the surface it makes sense to have someone […]

As I speak with Virginia’s Republicans, I find that there are a significant number of them who feel that they have no choice but to vote for Ed Gillespie as the lesser of two evils. I am also hearing that should the Republicans nominate a candidate for President in 2016, such as Chris Christie, Jeb […]

I have not heard a single intelligent line of reasoning why I, or any other Republican, should vote for Ed Gillespie for Senate.
