There has been a resounding victory for American liberalism.
I haven’t witnessed many presidential campaigns, but I can’t imagine the amount of absurdity the Democrats have rolled out this election season is normal.
This election is going to have an impact on you whether you vote or not. I can guarantee that.
Here’s an awkward secret: it is predicted that regardless of who is president, 12 million jobs will be created by 2016. Either candidate will create jobs. A lot of jobs.

A new trend is popping up in Georgia. Low-income children struggling in elementary school? Give them drugs.
The nation is in a deficit and we need to save as much money as possible, but cutting a program that doesn’t even register as a percentage point is too much, especially when that funding is so vital.
I’m so scared of Romney that I’ll be voting for Obama.
Brown himself said conversion therapy belongs “to the dustbin of quackery,” and I hope any decent mind can agree with this.
If Romney is able to lay out a more specific message on immigration, he might be able to attract more Latino voters tired of and disappointed by Obama’s inaction on issues of immigration.
