Why the Dem-Friendly Polls May Be Way Wrong (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The opinions expressed by columnists are their own and do not necessarily represent the views of Townhall.com. The midterm polls suck, and they might be right – if you believe them, we could be headed for anything from a blue tsunami to a blue wave to a blue trickle. But that’s a big if. To avoid that conclusion, you have to believe that the majority of polls, which are undeniably showing most of our key Senate candidates losing, are inaccurate. Now, this is where it gets tricky, because we want
Little Annoyances Add Up to Societal Decline (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The opinions expressed by columnists are their own and do not necessarily represent the views of Townhall.com. With the midterms coming up, there’s plenty to complain about, mostly stupid people saying stupid things, doing stupid things, and generally being stupid about politics.

The opinions expressed by columnists are their own and do not necessarily represent the views of Townhall.com. The regime media, and no one else, is up in arms over the fact that Donald Trump refuses to give special White House access to CNN, Politico, and MSNOW. Of course, the hyperventilation of the journalismists brings to mind the Shakespeare quote: “It is a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.” And I do mean signifying nothing. No one cares. I suggest we run my
Never Argue With Idiots (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The opinions expressed by columnists are their own and do not necessarily represent the views of Townhall.com. The foundation of a democratic republic — where the people allegedly have the final say in their own governance — is the ability to argue. That is how you make public-policy decisions. You present evidence, apply it to the rules and norms, consider precedent, and try to persuade a majority. You cannot have anything like a democracy — I know we are not technically a democracy; go with me
