http://www.rasmusen.org/x/archives/c/archives/000247.html
My thought when I split up my weblogs was that I could better keep track of categories. Now, I've decided it was a bad idea. So until further notice, anything new, whether on politics or other subjects, will be...erasmuse2004-09-29T13:19:39-06:00RealclearPolitics Poll site

http://www.rasmusen.org/x/archives/c/archives/000242.html
Orin Kerr at VC asks whether the pro-war blogosphere is disheartened by events in Iraq. I'm not. In fact, though I used to be firmly in the camp of people who thought that the war was a good thing but...Foreign Affairserasmuse2004-09-27T10:25:57-06:00The Despicable Jimmy Carter Attacks American Elections
http://www.rasmusen.org/x/archives/c/archives/000241.html
I usually don't write posts just to "vent", but the latest outrage from Jimmy Carter seems to call for an exception. Mere weeks after certifiying a fraudulent election in Columbia, our national champion in the category of self-righteous hypocrisy (a...Leftismerasmuse2004-09-27T10:04:34-06:00Biographer Brinkley Doubts Kerry

UPDATE: The Kerry Campaign has issued a press release saying that Brinkley mis-spoke. He stands by his book's story "A story in the September 24 New York Times leaves the false impression that I think John Kerry was not 'the..._Kerry-Vietnamerasmuse2004-09-24T10:30:59-06:00Candidates' Nightly Polling

Via Drudge, the Washington Times has an interview with Karl Rove that tells us about the extent of polling in presidential campaigns: ......Bush-Kerry 2004erasmuse2004-09-23T09:42:30-06:00Vietnam Warnings Since 1975: Wrong Every Time?

Via IP, I see that Michael Totten says In one of the cover stories Yossi Klein Halevi and Michael B. Oren (author of the indispensable Six Days of War) explain how Israel beat back the intifada.

Some time back Eugene Volokh had a post on VC in which he discussed whether the CBS forgeries were illegal. He found some obscure laws that might apply, but pretty much concluded that they were not illegal, and would...thergate]]>erasmuse2004-09-22T13:23:53-06:00Mrs. Heinz Kerry on Mozambique's "Communists"
http://www.rasmusen.org/x/archives/c/archives/000228.html
The New Yorker reports that Mrs. Heinz Kerry is surprisingly sound on the subject of "national liberation movements": Heinz Kerry’s father moved back to Portugal with his wife after the Socialist regime of Samora Machel came to power in Mozambique,...Bush-Kerry 2004erasmuse2004-09-21T23:10:27-06:00Smith on Estrich: "Faster than a U-turning Swiftboat . . ."

Tom Smith at RC has a wonderful post on Professor Susan Estrich, "Faster than a U-turning Swiftboat . . ." For those of you just joining us, the good Professor only recently penned this now infamous (but still pretty obscure)...Bush-Kerry 2004erasmuse2004-09-21T20:20:32-06:00Poll Numbers for Jewish-, Arab-, and Moslem-Americans
http://www.rasmusen.org/x/archives/c/archives/000226.html
It's interesting how the Muslim and Jewish vote is going in the 2004 election. Best indications are that Muslims have shifted en masse from Bush (whom they supported in 2000) to Kerry, while the Jewish vote is going to...Bush-Kerry 2004erasmuse2004-09-21T13:31:44-06:00The 1864, 1896, and 2004 Elections
http://www.rasmusen.org/x/archives/c/archives/000222.html
Rasmussen Reports has a webpage comparing the 2004 and 1896 elections that is worth reading. But it is wrong. The election to compare with 2004 is not 1896, despite what Karl Rove may think, but 1864.......Bush-Kerry 2004erasmuse2004-09-20T09:56:39-06:00The Republican Party: More Rockefeller than Goldwater; Neumayr's Article

"Arnie's Party" in the American Spectator gets things depressingly right. As my wife said to me one night, it really doesn't seem possible to get away from the median voter on domestic policy. Foreign policy, interestingly, is different, perhaps because...Leftismerasmuse2004-09-19T22:07:00-06:00Admiral Route on Kerry's Medals

Beldar's "Judicial Watch strikes out with demand for Navy Dep't investigation" is extremely good.
