Free Republic

The Hillary Rodham Psalm Hillary is my shepherd, I shall not want. She makes me to bow down to big government. She leads me beside the abortion clinic. She restores gun control. She leads me in the paths of socialism, for her name's sake. Yea, though i walk through the valley of liberalism, I will fear no evil; for Hillary is with me. Her benefits and handouts, they comfort me. Hillary prepares a health care system before me, in the presence of my better judgement. She fills my head with promises. My welfare cup runneth over. Surely, higher taxes and...

Over at the Corner, Kate O'Beirne said Romney's attacks on McCain-Feingold and the McCain-Kennedy immigration bill were "big crowd pleasers." (Hmmm, what do those two bills have in common?) Also, she notes, "In stringing together some of the events he faced upon taking office -- the Massachusetts court ordering gay marriage, the scientific...

Sunday, February 25, 2007 -- East County Congressman Duncan Hunter drew a sellout crowd to his first major campaign breakfast in San Diego. KUSI's Doug Curlee shows us how the presidential candidate is trying to reel in local voters.

BOSTON --Republican Mitt Romney gathered more than 350 of his strongest supporters for a glitzy fundraising blitz Monday aimed not only at financing his fledgling presidential campaign, but also scaring off potential rivals and putting existing ones on notice.
