But you know what’s sad? This means they don’t feel as strongly about McCain or Obama as they did about Bush 4 years ago.
So they endorse a Democrat for Senate, a Republican for the House, and Jarack McBama for President.

The Free Lance-Star has endorsed Mark Warner for Senate and Rob Wittman for Congress. No surprises there. But today’s issue also features a very strong op-ed piece from Carlos Del Toro.
In addition to running for the House of Delegates last year in the 88th district, Del Toro was a leader in Hillary Clinton’s VA campaign and was a Clinton [...]

A fortnightly rant, FL-S style (halftime show). With a h/t to Patty for Mr. Bug Eyes.
Chris’ post last week, recalled that today (October 17) marks 4 years since the FL-S published a completely ironic endorsement of George W. Bush for President.   
From the editorial:
He will, we judge, persevere in Iraq and in the larger conflict with neo-barbarism. The country’s economic [...]

Think of this before the Free Lance-Star’s inevitable endorsement of John McCain for President…
Next week, it’ll be four years ago they had this to say about George W. Bush:
He will, we judge, persevere in Iraq and in the larger conflict with neo-barbarism. The country’s economic foundation and, more crucially, its physical security are safer if [...]

These 6 regional papers cover Fairfax, Fauquier, Loudon, Prince William, Rappahannock, and Culpeper counties:
As a businessman, with over 40 years of experience and a Harvard MBA, Democrat Bill Day knows what it will take to get the economy and the country back on track and that’s why we give him our endorsement for Congress in [...]

From today’s Free Lance-Star…
The GOP campaign has used a toxic brew of political correctness and media bashing to justify its sequestration of Sarah Palin.  Operatives not known for their sensitivity to sexism suddenly are the high apostles of the politics of gender.
“But the continued sheltering of Mrs. Palin itself constitutes a form of sexism.  It’s ironic that [...]

The Free Lance-Star flops again with an embarrassingly slanted analysis of the House vote on the financial rescue, blaming Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) for the Republican vote and low income home buyers for the sub-prime mortgage crisis.
The Democrats voted 140 to 95 (60%) in favor and the Republicans voted 133 to 65 (68%) against. The [...]

I know it’s hard to keep up with the McCain campaign lies nowadays. But this one is one of the oldest: That Obama will raise your taxes. That’s true, he will….if you make more than $600k a year. The McCain campaign claims everyone making more than $42k a year will recieve a tax-hike under the [...]

A forthnightly rant, FL-S style.
Let’s say local Republicans stage an event and the featured guests are Lt. Gov. Bill Bolling, AG Bob McDonnell, Congressman Rob Wittman, and Speaker of the House Wild Bill Howell.  Then let’s say a local committee chair calls the FL-S and its political reporter Emily Battle to see if they would be able [...]
