S.E. Cupp: Lazio Is The New Scott Brown
My friend S.E. Cupp, in her latest column for the New York Daily News, dares to say that the New York governor’s race isn’t merely just waiting  for Cuomo to jump in and cruise to an effortless victory. To fellow jaded New Yorkers who...

Turner Uncovers Our Secret: We’re Dumb Racists!
Take off your Klan hoods and pay attention, my fellow conservatives: we’re in trouble.  To wit, Douglas Turner has found us out.  It’s hard to get through The Buffalo News copy-churner’s columns, as his output is as boring as it is unpleasant. ...

Paterson Exits Race; And What Will Cuomo Do?
I suspected a while back that something was gonna take Paterson out of the race. I suspect, given the circumstances, that the Democratic Party is somehow involved in forcing his move this week. A scandal-scarred Gov. Paterson Friday pulled the plug...
