Transitioning from a National Mindset to a Local One
With the end of mid-term election season quickly approaching, nearly every poll, blog post, and even MSM news story has come to a similar conclusion: at least one house in Congress (and possibly both) is almost guaranteed to flip from one party to another. And on a larger scale conservative and center/right candidates should also…

In the middle of October, 2008, when I still had my own personal blog (never again) I predicted that Barack Obama would win the Presidential election. Though the poll numbers were still pretty tight at that point, the writing was on the wall as far as I was concerned. Thus I conceded a month early…

Lessons From My Three Year Old Daughter
My three year old daughter is awesome. She’s got more energy than Lance Armstrong, she has an active and never ending imagination, and she is finally (God bless her) figuring out the difference between right and wrong.
