(8.05.10) Republicans: Bold Agenda or Pale Pastels?

(4.17.07) No. 945 Handicapping the 2008 President Race
The 2008 presidential race is in full swing. The first test of who’s up and who’s down is what this author refers to as “show me the money.” Leading the pack for Democrats is Sen. Hillary Clinton with about $26 million, some of which will have to be used for the general election, then Barack Obama with $25 million, former Sen. John Edwards with $14 million, and Gov. Bill Richardson with a surprising $6 million.


(2.15.07) No. 939 Bold Leadership Required by Republicans in Congress
As I write this column in February 2007, the GOP in Washington is struggling to adjust to what its role is as the minority in the House. Reality is slowing sinking in that after 12 years in the driver’s seat in the House, Republicans are no longer in power.


(1.17.07) No. 934 BERGER: A BETRAYAL OF JUSTICE AND OUR NATIONAL SECURITY
