The Situation on Chris Christie
Posted: August 27, 2010 by John Brodigan in Politics, Politics, PoliticsTags: jobs, chris christie
Yeah, instead of a hack Springsteen or Bon Jovi reference, I went with the “Jersey Shore.” Granted I’m sure ‘The Situation’ probably couldn’t even spell governor let alone know who Chris Christie is, but I digress. Less talk aboot jobs. In between having a movie made about him, and being passed over for the President’s [...]
Dear Mitch Daniels, Quit Playing Games With My Heart

While my head tells me Mitt Romney for our candidate in 2012, my heart is with Indiana Governor Mitch Daniels…which of course means he’s going to toy with my emotions. Most recently in a local paper Courier-Journal he said he’s NOT running for President. Then he said he’s not looking at ‘12 bid, but “if [...]

I don’t know who she or or what she stands for, and couldn’t tell you anything aboot the CA-36, but with videos like this…
New York Must Change Its Primary Date

I’ve been rooting for Marco Rubio ever since he announced he was running for Florida senate, and even though he no longer had an opponent in the primary, I still had August 24th marked on my calendar. As I was watching the primary results, just as I’ve been watching for the past few months, it [...]
Marco Rubio Declared Winner of the Florida Primary. DEVELOPING…

“I’m not quoting numbers from the Rubio-Crist race until I see Rubio has won and the results are certified in blood.” – Melissa Clouthier I agree with Melissa sentiments, and this race is too important to get lazy and/or cocky on. That said… The conventional wisdom with Florida Senate polls, at least the CW that [...]
John Boehner vs. President Obama: This Shit’s On!
Posted: August 24, 2010 by John Brodigan in 2010 Watch, Politics, Politics, PoliticsTags: 2010, economy, jobs, john boehner
I’m not always that fair to John Boehner. I make fun of his tan, and usually find myself on the Cantor/Ryan/McCarthy side of any rumoured leadership struggles. The Minority Leader did speak honestly aboot Social Security recently, but other than that…meh. Today, however, he’s making me a fan and starting to take the fight to [...]
Eric Cantor: Let’s Stay Focused on the Economy
Posted: August 24, 2010 by John Brodigan in 2010 Watch, Politics, Politics, PoliticsTags: 2010, congress, economy, eric cantor
With taking control of the House as a possibility – one none of us felt was possible a year and a half ago – I expect our candidates this year to stay focused on the economy and ignore the various other issues that have made this August the silliest silly season EVAH! It’s nice to [...]
Has the GOP Learned it’s Lesson?
Posted: August 24, 2010 by John Brodigan in 2010 Watch, Politics, Politics, PoliticsTags: 2010, congress, GOP
After Election Day 2008, Republicans weren’t expecting to be in majority any time soon. What we were expected even less was for the Democrat Party to be as incompetent as they have been. Now Republicans look poised to retake the House…but are we ready? First, let me just say I agree with strategist Mike Murphy…the [...]
NY-1 and NY-4: With So Much Drama in the GOP…

This is my first time really paying attention to NY politics, so maybe this is the way it’s usually done and I’m simply naïve to think otherwise. But there were two recent articles about two Long Island congressional races that I feel illustrate why so many people my age don’t waste their time in politics. [...]

That’s Just Who Kirsten Gillibrand is This Week

It’s funny. I have a friend who is as liberal as I am conservative, and we’re always getting into it with each other. When then Congresswoman Kristen Gilligan was appointed Senator, I told my friend, “Leave it to Gov. Paterson to nominate a Democrat I would like more than you to replace Hillary Clinton.” Gilligan [...]
Romney on the Economy: Fix It

It’s time for another Mitt Romney “chair shot” editorial where, just like in pro-wrestling (which politics seems to be faker than), he runs in when no one is paying attention, wacks the President with a chair (proverbially), and leaves through the audience. And I have to be honest, I’ve never wanted to be hit in [...]
Education Reform: Marco Rubio and Jeb Bush Stylee

“Marco Rubio understands that God has given every child the ability to learn.” – Jeb Bush We had a little scare in the Florida Senate race where Marco Rubio lost his lead over Charlie Crist. Thankfully now that the Gulf oil spill is getting cleaned up and people are reminded that Crist is an un-ideological [...]
