The repository of one hard-boiled egg from the south suburbs of Milwaukee, Wisconsin (and the occassional guest-blogger). The ramblings within may or may not offend, shock and awe you, but they are what I (or my guest-bloggers) think.
Of the two major parties, the Democrats are the party of race.
Exit polls in 2004 showed that John Kerry won 88% of the African American vote. In the same race, Zogby claimed that Kerry out drew Bush in Hispanic voters by 65%/34%.
In the 2008 primaries there has barely been a Democratic contest that didn’t have stories talking about how Obama or Hillary were likely to win or lose a particular state due to the presence, absence or mix of race included in the state.

Once again, I stress that this is not yet a regular feature, but methinks we need some music to get me…er, you in the mood. Maestro,….

Whilest you’re listening to one of the best metal songs of all time, go ahead and start reading.
– Michelle Malkin points to a full rise out of Chris Matthew’s Leg.
– Tom McMahon works his Photoshop magic once again on the Obama/Wright fiasco.
– John Hawkins nails what Barack Obama really is.
– Flashy has some more questions for Obama.
– One of those was also asked by Jim Geraghty.
– I guess the NYT should have listened to Tom; Allahpundit has the sordid details of their faceplant into the tank.
– PJ-Comix has been invited to the 2008 Media Research Center Gala Awards.
– Lawhawk cheers the pending release of much of Hillary Clinton’s daily schedule from her time as first lady/co-President.
– Kevin Fischer says, “Teach your children well about taxes.”
– Mary Lazich points out half the country, including Wisconsin, have corporate income taxes that make doing business in the US the most-taxing in the industrialized world.
– The NRSC isn’t the only Senatorial entity dealing with retirements; the odds of the Pubbies retaking the state Senate just dropped with the announcement of Carol Roessler’s retirement (via JSOnline’s AllPolitics). Of course, it could also be a golden opportunity to replace a RINO with a conservative.
– Gateway Pundit reminds us the gulags in Cuba are not at Club Gitmo.
– USCitizen has links to the transcripts of the Heller oral arguments. Stan has a link to the audio.
– Bill Quick uses the Heller case to highlight why I’m a conservative, not a card-carrying Republican (though because I paid my $29 for the Milwaukee County Lincoln Day dinner, I’m in the party).
– Pete wants to be a Knight at White Castle without going to the far side of the Root River Divide (side note; I miss Ed Zeppelin).
– From the Religion of Pieces file, Wolking’s World finds 84% of Palestinians support the deadly attack on a Jerusalem seminary earlier this month.
– Continuing with the Pieces theme, Weasel Zippers found out that our friends the Saudis (® James Taranto) once again refuse to recognize religions other than Islam.
– The Winter That Won’t Die™ will be dumping some more snow on us Friday, or so says the National Weather Service now (the link will update with the latest forecast).
– Charlie Sykes says, “Ahhhh, the power of Wisconsin cheese.”
– CDR Salamander exposes the boondoggle that is the VH-71, which is slated to be Marine One when/if it enters service. Maybe it’s just me, but the combo behind the VH-71 sounds just a wee bit like the one behind the KC-45.
– Swint answers Zimbabwe dictator Robert Mugabe’s question, “Who is better than Zimbabwe?”
– Uncle Jimbo is touring the country on the Heroes Tour, and he has a damn good interview with Mark Finelli.
– Jo Egelhoff asks what brand of police station Appleton is getting for its over-budget money.
– Mary wants the fidelity-challenged governors to “speak now or forever hold their peace”.
– Youssef Ibrahim says it’s time to push the Saudis on oil prices.
Blogging will be a bit light on my end. Between a trip to Madison and final (or is that first?) prep for the first fantasy baseball draft, I won’t be around a computer much the rest of the day.
