Top 10 Dark Horse Republican Presidential Candidates
With the presidential election only about 20 months away, the list of GOP nominees is slowly starting to come into focus as “exploratory committees” and PACs are forming almost on a daily basis. The names are well known: Gingrich, Palin, Romney, Bachmann, Pawlenty, Daniels, etc. And while some of these names might not excite all…
Read MoreThe Top 10 Jobs Barack Obama Should Consider Instead of Being the President
With our president AWOL on most every domestic and worldwide issue (with the exception being Michelle Obama’s war against really tasty food), we’ve come up with some potential jobs for the president to consider. If nothing else, he can file these jobs under the “created” category as he talks about the debacle that…
Read MoreThe Top 14 Things Said to the Wisconsin Democratic Senators by Their Spouses Upon Their Return From Illinois
This past Saturday the 14 Democratic Senators from Wisconsin who had brazenly shirked their responsibilities to the people of Wisconsin by opting for a cowardly month long escapade across the border in Illinois, finally came back to their rightful place – Wisconsin.
And while the labor union and other assorted leftists gave them a “hero’s welcome” when they “bravely” (think storming the beaches at Normandy) made their way back to the capital in Madison, evidently the welcome they received from their spouses at home was not so welcoming.
Here is just a sampling of what might have been said to them by their spouses:
Read MoreTop 10 Ideas for MSNBC to Try In Order to Increase their Ratings
I am just going to come out say it: I loathe MSNBC. I really do. I cannot stand that network. At all.
And because of this, I LOVE the fact that they consistently get beat down in the ratings by Fox News. Seriously, I delight in their misery.
Thus, it is that I came up with some ideas for MSNBC in order to try in an attempt to raise their normal viewership (somewhere in the neighborhood of 87-92 folks nightly) to at least the lower triple digits.

The Karate Kid and Ronald Reagan
As a child of the 1980’s, I protested vehemently when my wife recently went and rented the updated, Will Smith-ified version of The Karate Kid. The film stars his son, Jaden, and is a remake of sorts from the CLASSIC film of the same name that came out when I was six. And yes, I…
Read MoreTransitioning from a National Mindset to a Local One
With the end of mid-term election season quickly approaching, nearly every poll, blog post, and even MSM news story has come to a similar conclusion: at least one house in Congress (and possibly both) is almost guaranteed to flip from one party to another. And on a larger scale conservative and center/right candidates should also…
Read MoreSeeing the Light Born of a Dark Two Years
In the middle of October, 2008, when I still had my own personal blog (never again) I predicted that Barack Obama would win the Presidential election. Though the poll numbers were still pretty tight at that point, the writing was on the wall as far as I was concerned. Thus I conceded a month early…
Read MoreLessons From My Three Year Old Daughter
My three year old daughter is awesome. She’s got more energy than Lance Armstrong, she has an active and never ending imagination, and she is finally (God bless her) figuring out the difference between right and wrong. More amazing than that, however, is that my daughter has taught me much in regards to advancing the Conservative cause. (Quick editorial…

Avoid Being the “Zombie Candidate”
Among the seven candidates in the recent Republican primary for Oklahoma’s Fifth District Congressional seat were a current state House member (“Candidate A”), a former state House member who previously ran for this seat 4 years ago (“Candidate B”), and the former director of the largest Baptist church camp in the country (“Candidate C”). Here is what…
Read MoreCampaign Lessons from the Oklahoma Primary
Yesterday, the 2010 Primary Election was held in Oklahoma. Record numbers of Republicans and Democrats turned out to cast votes for the candidates of their choice. Many of the races produced results predicted by the polls. However, the race for governor in the Democratic party had all of the pundits talking after the dust had…
Read MoreThe Liberal Philosophy: Do as I say…But not as I do
Working in politics sometimes overwhelms me. Seriously, at times it absolutely drains me. Granted, I love constantly being aware of what is happening both in Washington and in my local community, and yes, it is very exciting to work in the political world. But to be honest, I go home every night and purposely avoid…

Convince Others by Writing Well
In Oklahoma, we are a little less than three weeks away from our Primary Election. The candidates are furiously traveling their districts in an effort to convince the citizens to cast a vote in their favor on the 27th. As an American Majority field representative, my job responsibilities require me to go into my territory…

Proud to be Pro-Choice (Though not in the Way You Think)
I love bacon cheeseburgers. I honestly do. Give me a solid bacon cheeseburger covered in ketchup and mayo with a side of fries drenched in salt along with a frosty beverage and then a strawberry shake for dessert, and you have the making of my “Death Row Meal”. The problem with those foods, however, is…
