Republican National Convention Destroyed Biden’s Basement Campaign

Posted by William A. Jacobson on August 29, 2020 75 Comments

I have to hand it the GOP, I did not expect the Republican National Convention to be as effective and good as it was. It was the greatest show on earth for those four nights, driving home messaging that was extremely damaging to Joe Biden and reaching out to voter groups that are not traditional Republican voters.

Biden Supporters Charged After Allegedly Taking a 7-year-old Child’s MAGA Hat

Posted by Fuzzy Slippers on August 23, 2020 55 Comments

Leftists are so fragile that the mere sight of a Trump hat drives them into a violent, irrational tantrum.  We've covered a large number of incidents related to lefties triggered by MAGA hats, even by MAGA hat lookalikes, but the latest is perhaps the hardest to watch because the victim is a 7-year-old boy.

Posted by Mike LaChance on August 22, 2020 29 Comments

The virtual Democratic National Convention struggled with ratings throughout the week. Joe Biden's nomination acceptance speech on Thursday night was the biggest ratings draw, but even that came up short compared to four years ago.

“Michael from Rhode Island” Starring At DNC as “Longstanding Republican” Voting Biden, Is A Democrat

Posted by William A. Jacobson on August 21, 2020 37 Comments

Other than some of the key speeches, I skipped most of the live coverage of the Democrat National Convention. When I tried to watch, it was unbearable, like watching a never-ending public service announcement from the Ad Council. So I missed the live coverage of "Michael from Rhode Island" presented by the DNC as a "longstanding Republican for a long time" who is voting for Biden.

Rachel Maddow Was ‘Scared’ by Obama’s Warnings About Trump Ending Democracy

Posted by Mike LaChance on August 21, 2020 43 Comments

Obama's 2020 DNC speech was almost the opposite of the 2004 DNC speech that propelled him onto the national stage. If you watched this week, you heard very little about hope and the things that bring Americans together. Instead, this was a dark speech that was heavier on Obama's dislike of Trump than why you should vote for Joe Biden. MSNBC's Rachel Maddow loved the speech, naturally, but it also scared her.

Tucker Carlson Exposes Extremist Side of Democratic National Convention

Posted by Mike LaChance on August 21, 2020 36 Comments

If you've been watching the Democratic National Convention each night this week, you have probably heard some far-out ideas and claims.

Yet none of that can even compare with what they're not showing on prime time television.

AP Fact Check: Michelle Obama’s DNC Swipe At Trump For Keeping Kids In “Cages” Was “Misleading” and “Distorted”

Posted by Mike LaChance on August 19, 2020 17 Comments

During the opening night of the Democratic National Convention, the headline speaker was Michelle Obama. In her speech, she made a reference to immigration and used the tired Democrat talking point about 'kids in cages.' Shockingly, she was called out by the Associated Press with a fact check.

AOC Uses 60-Second Speaking Spot at DNC to Endorse Bernie Sanders

Posted by Kemberlee Kaye on August 19, 2020 23 Comments

So first of all, Rep. Ocasio-Cortez spoke for over 90 seconds, but that matters far less than the fact that she used her tiny pre-recorded time slot to endorse Sen. Bernie Sanders for president over the presumptive nominee, former Vice President Biden.

Chris Christie on John Kasich: “He’s a backstabber and he’s untruthful guy”, “exhausting”

Posted by Kemberlee Kaye on August 18, 2020 38 Comments

John Kasich (did you know his dad was a mailman?) is part of that little clique of former and would-be public officials who won't go away and who are forever swaying like a reeds in the wind towards whomever is willing to pay.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Might Not Get a Speaking Slot at Democratic National Convention

Posted by Mike LaChance on August 09, 2020 26 Comments

The Democratic National Convention is happening in a little over a week, and it's still not clear if progressive darling Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez will have a speaking role. Former Ohio Governor John Kasich, a Republican, is confirmed but not AOC. That's hilarious.

John “Pay Attention to Me” Kasich to Speak at Dem Convention

Posted by Mike LaChance on July 22, 2020 53 Comments

Anyone who remembers the 2016 Republican primary knows that former Ohio Governor John Kasich loves nothing more than the sound of his own voice. So it should come as no surprise that he is ditching his allegiance to the Republicans in order to speak at the Democratic National Convention in support of Joe Biden. Do you think he'll mention that his father was a mailman?

Sec. of Senate says “no discretion” to release any info on Tara Reade, while Biden and DNC still refuse U. Delaware archives search

Posted by Mary Chastain on May 04, 2020 20 Comments

The Senate Secretary said the office has "no discretion to disclose any such information" when it comes to presumptive 2020 Democratic candidate Joe Biden's records concerning Tara Reade, who alleges he sexually assaulted her in 1993. This comes a day after The New York Times editorial board suggested the DNC form an "unbiased, apolitical panel" to investigate sexual assault allegations against Biden. DNC Chairman Tom Perez brushed aside the idea of a panel.

Bloomberg’s Campaign Transfers $18 Million to DNC

Posted by Mary Chastain on March 20, 2020 20 Comments

Yesterday I blogged that Wuhan coronavirus has hampered former Vice President Joe Biden's fundraising and the Democratic National Committee (DNC). It's hard for both to compete against President Donald Trump and the Republican National Committee since both are swimming are cash. The DNC received a decent boost from billionaire former candidate Michael Bloomberg.

Wuhan Coronavirus Victim: Joe Biden Fundraising

Posted by Mary Chastain on March 19, 2020 23 Comments

Former Vice President Joe Biden has a massive lead over Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT), so why the concern over money? President Donald Trump and the GOP continue to swim in money. If Biden wants to compete, he needs the resources. The coronavirus is making it harder for Biden to raise those needed funds.
