postheadericon How Obama got elected

The media bias in the election this year has been well documented and proven.  Never in our nation’s history has the Fourth Estate been so far in the tank for a candidate.  This is a very troubling development and signals the demise of non-partisan media. 
A new documentary on the media’s impact is being made (more [...]

postheadericon Adams County responds to slow election results

A bit of a follow up to my recent post about the continuing issues with Adams County and their inability to post timely election results.  In an article in the Northglenn-Thornton Sentinel last Thursday, the paper talked to county officials about the problem.

postheadericon Republicans set eye on crucial 2010

With their defeat in 2008, Republicans are quickly shifting their focus to the mid-term elections in 2010.  The RNC most likely will be picking a new leader and GOP governors are gathered in Florida this week for their annual conference.  One thing is certain, 2010 will be critical for the Republicans.  Not only do they [...]

Within 24 hours after the election, President Elect Barack Obama rolled out Change.gov, a new website to keep Americans up to date with the transition to his administration.  The site has been heralded on CNN.com and other mainstream news media sites.  Certainly, Obama’s use of the Internet during the campaign was unprecedented and allowed him [...]

postheadericon Tony’s Post Election Analysis – How the Presidency Was Won & Lost

The post mortem on John McCain’s failed attempt to win the presidency has begun and accusations have already begun to fly as to why he didn’t succeed.  Certainly the economy was one factor – perhaps the biggest – but it wasn’t the only thing that cost him votes.  In no particular order, here is my [...]

postheadericon Wall Street Referendum on Obama Presidency – Stocks Dive

This is not good for anyone.  Businesses were already concerned about what an Obama presidency means for them after his promises to raise their taxes and now the markets seem to be reflecting that fear.  Stocks fell more than 5% yesterday – the biggest post Election Day loss in history.  Today those losses continued as markets [...]

postheadericon Tony’s Post Election Analysis – National Races

If you read my ‘endorsements’ then you know the election didn’t exactly turn out the way I would have preferred.  Here is my analysis of the winners and losers.
Barack Obama wins Presidency.  Being a pessimist, I fully expected this to happen and it did.  I am glad that the margin of victory was large enough [...]
