Meet The Man Who Could Beat Johnny Mac

Jimmie | April 1, 2010 | Comments (0)

Something’s happening out in Arizona that hasn’t happened for a long while - a competitive Republican Senatorial primary. John McCain is taking major heat from J.D. Hayworth, a former Republican Congressman, and the stress is beginning to show. Stacy McCain has a profile of Hayworth on the American Spectator website and I recommend it if [...]

Later, the Words “Senator Boogerbrain” Were Bandied About.

Jimmie | March 1, 2010 | Comments (2)

This weekend I got to watch some clips from last Thursday’s health care summit meeting and this exchange between President Obama and Senator McCain stood out as emblematic of the entire day. The left characterized that as an “ooh, burn!” moment, which I suppose it would be if Obama and McCain were second-graders on the playground. [...]

When You Lie Down with Weasels, You Wake a Loser

Jimmie | July 11, 2009 | Comments (0)

Lots of folks have written thousands of words about why John McCain didn’t win the election last October. To be sure, McCain ran an abysmal campaign. It had no compelling message, his debate performances were lackluster at best, and he refused to attack Barack Obama where he was the weakest. One of the few things [...]

President Obama’s New Tactic: Be John McCain

Jimmie | March 15, 2009 | Comments (2)

I can hardly blame you if, over the past couple of months, you’ve discovered that your best economic move is to bury all your money in the deepest hole you can dig in your own backyard until January 20, 2010. The administration’s reaction to any new economic news thus far seems to come from a [...]

John McCain, Filibuster-Buster

Jimmie | January 13, 2009 | Comments (4)

Reed Galen makes a very good case that Barack Obama has done some industrial-strength sucking up to John McCain in the hopes that McCain will return the favor and help bust any potential Republican filibuster. I find the theory very credible. McCain is a sucker for ego-stroking moves, especially ones that play to his power [...]

In An Election Between a Squamous Socialist Abomination of Science and John McCain, I’ll Take Abomination

Jimmie | January 8, 2009 | Comments (2)

You know, I’d accept a Democratic super majority in the Senate for the next two years if it meant getting John McCain out of there forever. I’m serious. If he quit right now and a patchwork monster made out of the putrescent remains of Karl Marx, John Milton Keynes, Jimmy Carter, and Woodrow Wilson took [...]

Maybe She Can Get Maureen Dowd as Her Personal Valet

Jimmie | December 30, 2008 | Comments (0)

Vicky Iseman became a household name when the New York Times printed a thinly-sourced front page piece that walked right up to the edge of accusing her of having an affair with John McCain. Now she’s going for the jugular. Washington lobbyist Vicki L. Iseman has filed a $27 million defamation lawsuit against The New [...]

Wait, Oil Prices Dropped This Year? When Was the MSM Going To Tell Me?

Jimmie | December 23, 2008 | Comments (0)

Oh, yeah. That’s right. Never. The MSM reporting, especially television reporting, of gas prices was horrid this year? According to the Business & Media Institute’s Dan Gainor, stories about the energy crisis were inaccurate, predictions were wildly wrong, and good news was rarely reported. Not only did all of the television networks predicted long-term wrack [...]
