Should people be able to vote six weeks before Election Day?

Good journalism? Or, bad ethics?

Mitt Romney’s 2011 tax return has “USA” in the space for “Foreign country name.” Requests for his birth certificate will surely follow.

The Obama Administration’s response to the protests in the Muslim world has been entirely wrongheaded.

Republicans will have some choices to make if President Obama is re-elected.

The Romney campaign seems to be responding to criticism by pretending it hears no evil.

Conservatives are suposed to be cheerleaders these days.

Understanding public opinion is tricky.

Public distrust of the media is at an all-time high. It’s easy to see why.

The Administration’s narrative regarding the attack that resulted in the death of Ambassador Christopher Stevens no longer holds water.

The notion that Megan McArdle is some sort of “Republican Party activist” is just nuts.

Some Republicans are beginning to ponder what might happen to their party if Mitt Romney loses in 2012.

It’s looking less likely that the GOP will be able to gain control of the Senate.

A lot more people than expected are likely to be hit by the ObamaCare individual mandate tax penalty than previously thought.

Republicans think they found the smoking gun of the 2012 election. They’re kidding themselves.

Understandably, Republicans are becoming nervous about the way things are going for Team Romney.

John Scalzi knows that you want to be a better commenter because, “You’re a fine upstanding human being, not some feculent jackass with a keyboard, an internet connection and a blistering sense of personal inferiority that is indistinguishable from common sociopathy.”

In order to win, Mitt Romney needs the support of a large segment of the 47% of the populace he wrote off back in May.

The President’s poll lead has shrunk, but there are still signs of trouble for Mitt Romney.

With Mitt Romney and Barack Obama basically saying the same things about foreign policy, it’s time to take a look at an alternative.
