Posted on December 31st, 2010

By Nile Gardiner gnore the revisionist hype in sections of the liberal media about President Obama staging a (mythical) political comeback – this is a presidency with an approval rating of 45 percent (according to the RealClear Politics poll of polls), that presides over a nation where just 27 percent of voters think the country [...]

John McCain’s new role: GOP agitator

Posted on December 19th, 2010

By MANU RAJU POLITICO Sen. John McCain is getting under the skin of Democrats these days — and he seems to be relishing it.

NATIONAL REVIEW ONLINE In December, more than a dozen senators will come back to Washington and decide how much more tax money to take from Americans, without being accountable to any of them.
