With the rumors of a 2012 challenge on the rise,especially with Clinton's concern over IRAN and North Korea,If Hillary decides to run in November/December,Start off by Dissing Obama over his support for the Mosque,like-Yo IMAN! Your Not Building This Mosque,Even Over My Dead Body!!! An Anti-Mosque speech in New York would be the perfect start! And if she runs,Obama's approval will tank to about 35%! Conservatives and Republicans will love it. Her chances of a 2012 win are slim, but we would all enjoy the Clinton/Obama battle for the next year!!

A McCain Contract? by Dan Calabria Issue 104 - March 26, 2008Regarding your editorial, "Support McCain?", is it possible for principled conservatives to support, work and vote for John McCain in November? Of course it is. But first he has to treat conservatives as serious people interested in principle rather than an interest group to be appeased. He needs their votes; they don't need his. Everyone has heard the old line, fool me once, etc., and conservatives understand that John McCain now has to step up, but not with mere "trust me" rhetoric. He needs to make some firm commitments...

A coworker of mine was at New York Penn Station on Tuesday night at 8:45 PM waiting on a train to New Jersey after arriving from Boston. As this person was looking at the departure board in the concourse, there stood Joe Biden, on the phone, with a blonde haired woman next to him. "I just spoke to Hillary. Yeah, I'm in the top 3 for VP." Biden then looked over at my coworker and said, "I'll call you back in a minute when I'm not in public," and then made a bee-line for the platform of the departing DC...

PHOENIX (AP) - More than a foot of snow fell on parts of northern Arizona, and several more inches were possible Monday, while children as far south as Tucson got a rare chance to play in the snow as one of the strongest storms of the winter moved through the state. Sunday's storm came amid a wave of winter storms that have brought snow, ice and strong winds to the Plains region, but also to the Southwest, including Arizona, Texas and New Mexico. The harsh, frigid conditions were blamed for 11 traffic fatalities in the Plains over the weekend. Although...

Colorado could become the first state to scrap its winner-take-all system of casting electoral college votes for president and replace it with one based on a percentage of the popular vote. Supporters of the Make Your Vote Count campaign filed petitions containing more than 130,000 names Friday with state election officials. "And close to 20 percent of them (the signatures) are from Republicans," said Democratic political consultant Rick Ridder, campaign spokesman. "We see this as a multi-partisan effort." The measure would go into effect immediately for this year's presidential battle if voters approve. Had it been in effect here four...

Arnold Schwarzenegger is not experienced enough to run for Governor, and so far he has not said specificly what he is going to do to help the state of California. The man with the experience to save California is Tom McClintock, and all conservatives should try to help him get elected. You can help Tom McClintock by calling Talk Show Hosts in California and any national Talk Show Hosts, and ask them to publicly endorse McClintock on their radion shows, and tell their listeners to go out and vote for McClintock (If their listeners live in California). Here are a...
