Michele Bachmann is right: We need to ask questions about radical Islamic infiltration

Obama is trying to run against George Bush, and Mitt Romney is letting him
This is shaping up to be the second election in a row that's about someone who isn't on the ballot: George W. Bush. In 2008, Barack Obama won in no small part by turning the election into a referendum on President Bush and by claiming that a John...

Presidential election or abortion referendum?
The platforms that the two political parties publish every four years are a lot like the warranties that come with washers or refrigerators: Nobody ever reads them, but if you do, you find that nothing in them actually applies. This year, though, the...

Harry Reid goes too far with allegations about Romney's taxes

With Paul Ryan, Romney bets on the wrong vision for America
