The commotion from these two campaigns would likely have Phil the Groundhog scared out of his wits.”

Paul Davison presents Writing a New Electoral Map posted at monkeyinmymind.com, saying, “Yes, I am predicting that Texas and Ohio will be won by Democrats in 2008.

NotYourDaddy presents Protectionism isn’t Patriotic posted at Government is not your Daddy., saying, “A free market means you have to be competitive. If you can’t deliver the best value, you lose. And that’s exactly as it should be. If we want American technology to be the best in the world, then it has to be able to compete in the world marketplace.”

NotYourDaddy presents Alternative Energy and the Law of Unintended Consequences posted at Government is not your Daddy., saying, “Biofuels were supposed to be the ultimate panacea that solved everything from global warming to war in the Middle East. After all, they’re natural, renewable, and, best of all, green! Yet, from both a social and environmental perspective, biofuel production is turning out to be one of the biggest disasters of all.”

NotYourDaddy presents Obamanomics posted at Government is not your Daddy., saying, “We’ve heard a lot about Hope and Change from Senator Obama, but his actual positions on the issues have so far struck me as vague. He almost seems to have become a modern cult figure, with hysterical fans fainting and squealing at his appearances, and all the frenetic excitement he’s generating among the young and ‘young at heart.’ So I decided to visit his Web site and see if I can figure out where he actually stands on some issues.”

NotYourDaddy presents Sacrificing Israel posted at Government is not your Daddy., saying, “People keep telling me that the terrorists wouldn’t hate us if we didn’t support Israel. Apparently, it’s our own fault they attacked us on 9/11, because they had already warned us many times to stop supporting Israel and get out of the Middle East. If only we had obeyed, they never would have attacked us on our own soil, killing thousands of innocent civilians and attempting to blow up our Pentagon.”

NotYourDaddy presents Libertarian at Home, Conservative Abroad posted at Government is not your Daddy., saying, “I understand the standard Libertarian argument that, if we just leave everybody alone, they’ll leave us alone too. It’s very nice and neat and rational. The problem is, it assumes everybody else in the world is nice and neat and rational, too. It doesn’t account for terrorists who want to destroy us because we’re infidels and our Western culture is an abomination to Allah.”
