Sarah's Reach is International

The following article, Sarah Palin shows us how it's done, from Great Britain's Sun newspaper, is perhaps the most flattering review of Sarah Palin to date (with the possible exception of your humble servant's Washington Times piece.)

The writer bemoans the state of British politics, contrasting Sarah's "electrifying mix of passion, energy, optimism and plain speaking," with "the slippery, two-faced, depressing bunch of third-raters who parade on our Westminster stage." I could really relate to him. In the days Before Palin (BP) that was all we had too, with the possible exception of a few Republicans I could think of, but most of them host talk radio shows. As far as the Democrats go, it is still all we have. But that is nothing new.

John McCain's pick, like the energizer bunny, just keeps on going.

I Told You So

Newsmax reports today that Republicans are concerned about Bob Barr’s candidacy. If you had read some of my previous columns, you would know that I identified third party candidates as a potential Republican nightmare over a year ago. And as I said in a more recent column, Barr could well become John McCain's Ralph Nader.

Barr will not pull a lot of votes, but he doesn’t have to. One or two percentage points could spell the difference between victory and defeat for John McCain next fall. Barr should knock it off and get with the party. As the House Republican who lead the charge for Clinton's impeachment, He of all people should know the potential dangers of another Democrat presidency. Sometimes I think the Republican Party suffers from suicidal tendencies. He may just be the one who supplies the ammunition.
