Is Radical the New Mainstream?
By Wayne Allyn Root
The question on national political experts’ minds Wednesday morning is, “Sharon who?” Sharon Angle was the winner of the Republican U.S. Senate primary in Nevada. Few on the national scene saw this coming. But I did. As a Nevada Reagan Libertarian, Tea Party activist, and national political commentator, I’ve said for months that in a “Tea Party year” anything is possible – including the election of a political outsider like Sharon Angle.
When the public is angry and wants blood, all bets are off. In Sharon Angle’s case, the Tea Party movement gets 100% of the credit. Angle was languishing in third place in her U.S. Senate race until she received the endorsement of the Tea Party Express and The Club for Growth. After that, she moved up the polls like a rocket. She blew by the GOP establishment candidate Sue Lowden. Coming from 20+ points down, Angle won going away. This was not a year to be the establishment candidate – even if you are an ex-beauty queen, TV newscaster, and casino owner. Sharon Angle is a true fiscal conservative, limited government, anti-tax Tea Party candidate. Just days ago, the Wall Street Journal described her views as “outside the mainstream.” Well, I’ve got news for the Wall Street Journal – radical is the new mainstream. Ask the Lt. Governor of South Carolina, who got 17% of the vote against an unknown female candidate (Nikki Haley) endorsed by Sarah Palin. The new mantra is V.E.T.O. – Vote Every one of Them Out! [more...]
Lincoln Beats Soros
By Joy Tiz
Blanche Lincoln beat the Soros-backed Bill Halter. The union thugs and Soros-funded Moveon.org suffered a humiliating defeat. Together, they couldn’t take down a washed up party hack. Organized labor just blew $10 million. Lincoln should be easily beaten in November if Republicans force her to run on her voting record. Democrats have figured out that Americans hate their agenda. These newly minted phony small government tax cutters have to be called out on their actual track record. In Lincoln’s case, for all of her gibbering about her independence, she voted as told by Harry Reid 89% of the time. If Arkansas is the new model, we can expect Democrats to continue to pretend they’ve never heard of Barack Obama and try to ride Bill Clinton’s shabby coattails. [more...]
John Boehner Demands Apology From Paul McCartney
By James Hirsen
Paul McCartney showed an astounding lack of class when, while being the first non-American to be awarded a Gershwin Prize, he hurled a cheap shot at former President George W. Bush. McCartney was at the Obama White House to receive his honor when he commented, “After the last eight years, it’s great to have a president who knows where the library is.” Now GOP Minority Leader John Boehner is demanding that Sir Paul publicly apologize for the dubious conduct, which to say the least is unbefitting a knight or a Beatle.
