I'm not talking about Fox's actual 'debate', that portion needs little explanation. Heck, the state's own party pulled out of the forum. As other bloggers have already noted, it was the usual Fox lovefest where the candidates pretty much got to give their stump speech with little challenge from the 'moderator' Wallace. I'm talking about the panel of 30 'undecided' New Hampshire voters they went to after the 'debate' for some 'real peoples'' opinions.

The Grinch stole Christmas from all the Who's down in Whoville, that's how the story goes. More recently, however, by an Executive Order signed on July 17th entitled "Blocking Property of Certain Persons Who Threaten Stabilization Efforts in Iraq" the Grinch could've just gotten himself elected President, made vague statements about the threats those Who's posed to national security and seized their property. But that's silly... right?

Ok, technically the headline is Rice rejects talks with Iran, Syria on Iraq, but the principle is there. And please read all the way through, the end is the scariest.

I know people don't like to hear about 2008 before the new legislative session has even started. Tough luck. I love Wesley Clark, I loved him in 2004, I loved him in my first blog post here. As I explained previously his military experience, popularity in Arkansas, and general intelligence make him a fantastic candidate in my opinion. Follow me below the fold to watch me waiting with baited breath for that wonderful announcement...

Well, I've been trying to think of a diary to patch together to cover my various post-election reactions but couldn't think of a cohesive subject. Hence the title, haha. Phonebanking in CT, my first political cash donations, and why my boy might finally be announcing his 08 plans soon. Read More

Sorry to lead off with a cheesy Facebook image, but I guess that starts us off with the end of my title. I arrived nice and early so I could be on the "ropeline" so to speak (small fences, actually, whatever). Unfortunately, my camera battery was rather low and burned out just about a single minute before Wes and Ned showed up. Ah well, follow me below the fold for the textual awesomeness that ensued, images or not. Oh, and it's Gampel, stupid Facebook. Read More

I laughed at the pre-9/11 mis-underestimating Bushisms. I thoroughly enjoyed the president kindly framing his head in the shot right next to "Mission Accomplished". I giggled when this president, his vice president, his party chair, and many others claimed that Connecticut primary voters voting "encouraged Al Qaeda types". Follow me below the fold for my new favorite Bushism. Read More

Say, wouldn't it be crazy if the Path to 9/11 was true? Say, wouldn't it be even crazier if they got BITS right but the president who did it wrong? Say, wouldn't it be absolutely whacky if they foretold the future? Read More

Ok, maybe the title is a bit wacky. So shoot me. As we all (or at least most Kossacks who've read the site in the past week or so) know that the first piece of ABC's defamatory Path to 9/11 aired last night. What I didn't know was on last night until a friend of mine suggested we watch (we did) was the so-called "Manning Bowl" football game of the New York Giants (with Eli Manning as starting QB) and the Indianapolis Colts (with Peyton Manning as starting QB). So how did these two young quaterbacks "save America"? Follow me below the fold to find out! Read More

Hey all, remember this diary of mine on the CT-4 race? As with all the CT races (save governor) support for the war in Iraq is enough to crush otherwise very moderate Republicans into the race of their lives? The interesting thing? Go below the fold to learn (as if you can't tell from the title) what Chris Shays is doing to try and stay alive. Read More

First off, an update on the first diary in this series. Rasmussen has released a new poll that shows Rell still leading by an insane 22 point margin. Admittedly much better than the 47 point lead she held prior to the primary, and hopefully the trend of aggressive movement towards normalcy continues, but Rell is still the frontrunner (DeStefano could really use your support. Now, in the last of my diaries covering potential Democratic pickups in CT (already covering the 2nd and 4th districts) follow me below the fold for the toughest of the three, CT-5. Read More

Before anything else, yes I am stealing Stephen Colbert's bit for the title of these diaries. This diary is the third in a little series I'm writing, profiling important Democratic races in Connecticut not involving the names Lieberman or Lamont. Thusfar we've had CT-Gov and CT-2, head on down below the fold for a little info on the fourth district race. Read More
