Palin Saboteurs Firefighting 101 teaches it is easier to stomp out a wildfire when it is small. Don’t allow the fire to grow, spread and become an inferno. Sarah Palin was the spark of McCain’s reform campaign. She ignited the campaign and gave the reform message legitimacy. Those knifing Palin are the old-guard Republicans who…

YP – Why would Joey Langston get sentenced before subsequent trials?
There are a few interesting questions raised by Joey Langston’s sentencing date of 12/16. First, why would the Feds let Langston get sentenced before testifying at subsequent trials? That is an odd twist. Usually, even with cooperative witnesses, the Feds hold trial performance over someone who pleaded guilty. Could it be because there won’t be…

My technique is perfect.” Remember that class conducted by something called the Pacific Institute? Remember all that talk of `daily-affirmation’ and `self-actualization?’ “I’m quick off the ball and blow by…

Musgrove lost to Barbour machine twice
The Hattiesburg American Editorial, 11/17/8 Democrat Ronnie Musgrove has run for two different statewide offices during the past five years, but he essentially lost the same campaign twice. Both times, Republicans pounded Musgrove on economic issues. And both times, Musgrove worked hard but did a weak job of defending his own record. In 2003, Musgrove…

Republicans ask: Just how bad is it?
Politico.com, 11/17/8 Party leaders agree that the GOP has had a rough go of it at the polls in recent years. How could they not? Since 2004, Republicans have gone from 55 Senate seats to no more than 43 once this year’s last winners are determined, and from a 29-seat edge in the House to…

Thompson AWOL from Musgrove campaign?
The Clarion-Ledger Editorial, 11/16/8 The small matter of the allegedly bogus Hinds County Democratic sample ballot has yet to be officially explained to anyone’s particular satisfaction, but suffice it to say that it is one piece in a political puzzle that makes for interesting speculation about why Democrat Ronnie Musgrove lost his Senate race with…

Down, dirty judicial races: Elections reshape Supreme Court
The Clarion-Ledger Editorial, 11/16/8 What happened in Mississippi’s 2008 judicial elections happened all over the country. State elections for Supreme Court justices ended 2008 much as they began, punctuated by runaway spending, partisan pressure, angry accusations and costly, secretly-funded ads by third-party special interests that often drowned out the candidates. Four incumbent Mississippi Supreme Court…
