With apologies for posting this entry a week after elections, I wanted to do a quick roundup of the results of the 2007 elections. There were three gubernatorial races, along with legislative races in Maine, Mississippi, New Jersey, and Virginia:

Danish Election: Incumbent Centre-Right Government Wins

The Liberal-Conservative Government passed the test of the Danish Electorate Tuesday. Polls did show that it was a close race between the block of parties led by Prime Minister Anders Fogh Rasmussen and the opposition block led by Social Democrat Helle Thorning-Schmidt (yes, she would have been the first Danish woman Prime Minister).

Today’s Wall Street Journal editorial provides some interesting insight into the conservatives playbook in the environmental debate. Schwarzenegger is leading California into a lawsuit against the EPA to get Federal approval for California’s strict limits on CO2 emissions on all new cars sold in the state.

The New Litmus Test

Mukasey was a shoe in.  He had allayed everyone’s fears of his stance on torture.  It’s illegal, he said!  He was almost guaranteed a speedy approval by the Senate Judiciary Committee.  Then comes the waterboarding debacle.  After being asked to clarify his stance on waterboarding as a torture method, Mukasey was not able to give a clear response.  Mukasey […]

“The Politics of Parsing”

While I don’t have a candidate I am supporting this presidential race, I will admit that I am biased against Hillary Clinton. I think she’s done a generally good job representing my home state (New York) in the Senate, but I have reservations about her policy beliefs, along with the fact that her campaign reeks […]

Does the DCCC support Hillary Clinton?

Today is Hillary Clinton’s 60th birthday. While Bill Clinton had already sent out an email asking for birthday wishes (and contributions) via the campaign, it was strange to see that today, the exact same email went out - but from the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC). Via The Politico, the text of the email is […]

An article published on thehill.com by Bill Press has revealed that the Federal Election Committee will hold TV personality, Stephen Colbert, and now 2008 “Presidential Candidate” to the same regulatory standard of sponsorship and media affiliation as the other candidates. “If Fred Thompson had to give up ‘Law and Order,’ Colbert has to give up […]
