Want to know the conservative credentials of your favorite Republican? Interested in learning who's in and who's out in the 2008 presidential campaign? This section has everything conservatives need to make informed decisions when it's time to elect a president in 2008.
A glimpse of the most significant US Senate races of 2008 and the impact each could have on the balance of power in Congress.
Important issues on the minds of conservatives this election can be seen in better focus in specific areas of the country. Here are the top five national issues magnified locally.
During the first presidential debate, Barack Obama claimed he never said he would meet face-to-face with self-proclaimed enemies of the US if he were elected president. The record, however, seems to betray his claims.
Ever since Barack Obama named Joe Biden as his runningmate, the media has heralded the Delaware Senator for his foreign policy expertise. Can you really believe the hype?
A look at why Democrats are so vehemently opposed to the presidential candidacy of consumer advocate Ralph Nader, despite his alignment with them on many of their most important issues.
Barack Obama took North Carolina, as he knew he would. Hillary Clinton took Indiana, even though Obama had predicted a 7-point win (he lost by less than two). Obama's late night surge wasn't enough to put him over the edge. See why Indiana should have been considered a crushing loss for Obama.
Now, more than ever, a dream ticket is needed in American politics and if ever there were a person to provide the balance that John McCain and this nation needs, it is former Secretary of State Colin Powell.
A look at what bloggers and writers are saying about what a John McCain White House might look like -- who will be his vice-president, state department secretary and other cabinet offices.
While Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama were duking it out for the Democratic nomination in the Keystone State Tuesday night, presumptive Republican nominee John McCain was taking a page out of Pennsylvania Gov. Ed Rendell's 2004 playbook and visiting places outside his comfort zone.
A casual discussion between a liberal and a conservative about the 2008 presidential election.
A loose transcript of Barack Obama's speech at Thaddeus Stevens College of Technology in Lancaster County on March 31, 2008. This is not a word-for-word transcript, but it's pretty close. The speech picks up where Obama began discussing energy.
"It's going to be a long spring," was the thought when Hillary Clinton, of all people, attacked her two opponents about their Iraq policies in early 2008. "A long spring, indeed."
According to the
New York Observer, feminist icon Gloria Steinem added to the blunders of the 2008 presidential campaign by scorning the eight years (sic) of torture McCain endured at the hands of the North Vietnamese during the Vietnam War.
With conservatives just one seat away from having a majority on the Supreme Court and the next president having the power to name up to three justices, do they really want these decisions to be made by Hillary Clinton?
Will Ralph Nader's presidential candidacy hurt or help front-running Republican candidate John McCain? Why do Democrats loathe another Nader run?
This is the best they can come up with? McCain may have
considered having an improper relationship with lobbyist Vicki Iseman. The paper implies the two either shared a romantic relationship or McCain did the young lady political favors, or both, but the paper doesn't exactly say which.
Like two old stubborn tree roots, Mike Huckabee and Ron Paul have vowed to stay in the 2008 presidential campaign despite the overwhelming odds against them.
The matchup between McCain and Obama might be a better one for McCain than some Democrats would have you believe. Here's why.
What would a Potomac primary win mean for Huckabee on Feb. 12? Although way down on the delegate count, could wins in Virginia, Maryland and Washington, DC give Huckabee the juice he needs to keep going?
Mitt Romney's decision to drop out of the 2008 presidential campaign brings the Republican party one step closer to nominating a candidate and developing a game-plan for the general election in November.
Ron Paul's tenacity and dedication have kept him in the 2008 presidential election, despite poor showings and the lack of a win in any state. Paul plans to march into the Republican National Convention with his head held high and as many delegates as he can muster.
Despite the concern about John McCain's conservative credentials, he IS a conservative and is the only candidate with even the slightest chance of uniting the Republican party and ending the bipartisanship in Washington, DC.
FOX-TV's combined coverage of the Super Bowl XLII and the primary elections across the US on Feb. 5 is a noble effort to increase interest in the presidential election and increase voter turnout.
In a dizzying fall from the top of the heap in 2007 to Tuesday's disappointing third-place showing, Giuliani's crippled campaign now has zero momentum heading into Super Tuesday on Feb. 5. The once-proud mayor was expected to bow out of the campaign today, but not without causing a stir.
Mike Huckabee has to be wondering if fickle momentum has named him its foe. Since his surprising, out-of-the-gate win in Iowa on Jan. 3, Huckabee has run out of money, was slammed and shunned by the New York Times on Friday and is placing somewhere at the back of the pack near Texas Congressman Ron Paul and former UN Ambassador Alan Keyes in the Florida polling.
Almost as soon as Fred Thompson's campaign got started, it ended.
Perhaps the most significant aspect of Saturday night's primary extravaganza wasn't the win for Mitt Romney in Nevada or the win for John McCain in South Carolina. It was the decision of California Congressman Duncan Hunter to drop out of the presidential race, whittling the field down to six.
The former Massachussetts governor finally got the gold for which he had been battling so desperately. More importantly, perhaps, Romney moved on to the South Carolina caucuses with a spring in his step, a monkey off his back and "Big Mo" on his side for the first time in months. Momentum had not been Romney's friend in the days before Michigan's primary.
Apparently former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani believes Florida is the only state that counts. Someone not from Florida should check Giuliani's campaign to see just how many Floridians are giving him advice.
Oil prices are high, neighbors are divided on the homefront about the war in Iraq and the US ecomony is on the verge of a recession. If ever there were a year for monumental change in America, this would be it. The trouble for Democrats is they may be asking the country to make too radical of a change.
Iowa's over now, and all the hoary ghosts of Mitt Romney's campaign have gone with it. Signs of hope are few in the once-proud, but shattered candidacy of the former Massachussetts governor.
With the Iowa Caucuses just days away, the places the GOP candidates are campaigning is just as telling as what they're saying on the campaign trail.
Colorado Congressman Tom Tancredo dropped out of the GOP presidential election on Dec. 20, 2007 and subsequently threw his support behind former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney.
As the 2008 Presidential election draws ever nigh, conservatives should be sure they're selecting the candidate who truly represents their values. It could be a tough four years if they don't.
At the CNN/YouTube debate on Nov. 28, 2007 former Tennessee Sen. Fred Thompson unveiled the GOP's first negative campaign ad. The difference between his ad and those unveiled so far by Democrats? Thompson stodd before the American public ready to field questions about it.
On Nov. 28, 2007, the GOP held a nationally televised CNN/YouTube debate. Here are a few thoughts about the winners and losers.
How would the former New York City Mayor appease conservatives on the tough issues of abortion, gay rights and gun control? His speech to the Federalist Society gave some indication.
Former Tennessee Sen. Fred Thompson received official support Wednesday Nov. 14, 2007 from the National Right To Life Committee, bolstering his conservative credentials and giving him a much-needed boost in a simmering presidential campaign.
