Joe Biden is getting ready to flex his big yaw at the debate with Governor Palin tomorrow night. Heaven help us! He is supposed to be the man who adds experience and foreign policy street cred to the inexperienced Obama ticket. Good luck with that, Joe. I suppose his being a 66 year old with [...]

All of us remember this comical segment of the first Presidential debate between John McCain and Barack Obama. McCain mentions the bracelet he has been wearing in memory of Cpl. Matthew Stanley ever since his mother presented it to McCain in August 2007. Obama, in a desperate attempt to claim he too has credibility with [...]

Now we know that many in the KoolAid-sipping media are going to continue the Mad Hatters Tea Party and pretend Obama won last night’s debate. OK. So when you’ve finished laughing and can draw calm breath once again, let us remember that they’ve got to act like it’s a dead heat so we’ll keep tuning [...]

Our live-blogging open thread will go up 10 minutes before the debate begins at 9 p.m. ET. In the meantime, here are some questions that Politico.com’s Arena editors asked “policy makers and opinion shapers” to contribute — questions these people want to see asked tonight. I selected a few randomly: Jay Timmons, National Association of [...]

Wow! A sane opinion on CNN This is another post from my home blog at Partizane.com By Ruben Navarrette Jr. Special to CNN Navarrette lays a few good ones on the One. Do go read the Op-Ed. CNN has a big disclaimer on this one to let us know they may not agree. Despite having [...]

(This is the opening monologue from Tuesday night’s Nocturnal Warrior show, heard 9:00 PM on No Quarter Radio. You can listen to the actual delivery of this monologue by clicking on the No Quarter Radio link on the lower right hand part of the page. Shortly after the monologue, the entire show falls apart thanks [...]

Earlier today, Byron York, at his National Review blog, The Corner, reported on his assessment of Gov. Sarah Palin’s abilities as a debater, based on her performance during Alaska’s 2006 gubernatorial Republican primary race. York found a two-year-old video at C-Span of Sarah Palin debating the other two GOP primary candidates, Frank Murkowski, the incumbent [...]

One astute commentator at No Quarter last night mentioned how incredibly upsetting it is that Jesse Jackson got all 485 of his delegates on the Roll Call, and Hillary Clinton got only 20% of her almost 2,000 delegates. Upsetting, frustrating, insulting, maddening, disturbing, and demeaning are other words that come to mind. Frankly, if Obama [...]

The American Issues Project, a conservative 527 group, is running the following ad in Michigan and Ohio. The strength of the ad is its accuracy. Unlike the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth’s ads, there is no available counter-argument. Bill Ayers is an unrepentant terrorist. Obama’s political career was launched at Bill Ayers’ house. Obama did [...]

I was just reading No Quarter’s piece on how Barack Obama Snubbed New Orleans. Again. He refuses to participate in a Town Hall debate with John McCain there. Now as it is, Obama has managed to dodge any gathering sponsored by African Americans, including the 2008 State Of The Black Union. That alone is despicable. [...]

During the primary race Obama snubbed New Orleans and The State of The Black Union 2008 conference, who was there, Hillary Clinton. (He offered Michelle instead.) Here she is speaking at the conference. Obama refused to debate Hillary anymore during the remainder primary states (as he is doing during the general election race). She offered [...]

Bring on Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and every other unfriendly world leader and Obama will sit down and chat with them directly. And, according to the Associated Press, “In May, when a McCain adviser proposed a series of pre-convention appearances at town hall meetings, Obama said, ‘I think that’s a great idea…Obviously, we would have to think [...]
